About Julianne Smith


been there. done that. figured it out.

Whether it’s how to make a garter, how to be found on Google or how to sell my blog, I’ve always done my own thing. I’ve always made it work on my own terms.

My name is Julianne Smith. I live in Washington, D.C. with my husband and three kids. I began my career in politics and media, but in 2008, I started The Garter Girl when I couldn’t find a stylish garter worthy of my best friend. In 2010, I started United With Love, a top wedding blog, and sold it in 2016.

I know what it’s like to run a business, try to have a life, and be responsible for all the things. I’m a master at explaining “tech,” like SEO and Pinterest because I’ve always had to teach myself.

My Pinterest account receives 2 million+ monthly viewers. My website is #1 in the world for all of my keywords. The only explanation is that I figured it out. And, I can show you too.
