In early 2020, my husband and I bought our first classic car together. I’d always dreamed of restoring a vintage Mercedes—my grandma drove them when I was growing up, and they’ve held a special place in my heart ever since. When the world slowed down during the 2020 lockdown, we suddenly had the time to dive into a restoration project. In a season when the world felt like it was falling apart, it was healing to put something back together.
Fast forward to today: we now have two classics that we actually daily drive. I love sharing these timeless machines—whether they’re the perfect backdrop for a styled photoshoot or the getaway car for your special day.
