Today we’d like to introduce you to Blake Collins.
Hi Blake, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
Hi, I’m the founder and creative heart behind Luxe Celebrations—a luxury event and wedding planning company where meaningful details and unforgettable experiences are at the core of everything we do.
Believe it or not, my journey didn’t start with flowers and champagne toasts. It actually began in the skies. With a degree in Air Traffic Control, pilots license, and a corporate career in aviation, I spent years immersed in logistics, spreadsheets, and meetings. I often found myself planning company events, and over time, I realized how much I loved creating experiences that brought people together. Even so, something was missing.
Everything changed when I got engaged and planned my own wedding in beautiful Estes Park, Colorado. That day was pure magic—personal, heartfelt, and full of thoughtful touches that made our guests feel truly special. The kind words and compliments we received afterward lit a spark in me that I couldn’t ignore.
That pivotal moment inspired a bold transition. I stepped away from the corporate world to follow my passion for intentional, beautiful celebrations—and Luxe Celebrations was born. Since then, I’ve been honored to design bespoke events that capture the unique vision of each client. It is a privilege to transform love stories into extraordinary experiences, and I take great pride in the lasting memories we help create.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
One of the biggest struggles in creating Luxe Celebrations was coming to terms with leaving behind everything I had worked so hard for in my academic and professional life. With a degree in Air Traffic Control and years invested in a corporate career, it wasn’t an easy decision to walk away. My parents have always supported me through every phase of life, but I knew this wasn’t the path they had envisioned for me. Choosing to follow my heart meant stepping into the unknown—and trusting that passion and purpose would guide the way.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
What sets Luxe Celebrations apart is the vibrant, youthful energy behind our team. We’re not only passionate about what we do—we’re fully in tune with the latest trends, innovative guest experiences, and fresh ideas that make events truly unforgettable. In an industry where many planners rely on tradition, we bring a modern perspective and a fearless approach—nothing is off-limits when it comes to bringing our clients’ visions to life.
