POSTS STORIES REELS

Ten years. So many crowns. Countless memories. And a sisterhood that has become so much bigger than I ever could have imagined. 👑

One of the greatest gifts of these past ten years has been the opportunity to surround myself with so many incredible women. Not just the queens who have worn our crowns, but the hundreds of contestants who have trusted us with their dreams, shared their stories, and become part of our family. Every woman who has walked across our stage has left her own mark on this organization, and I hope, in some small way, we’ve left a mark on her, too.

There is something so incredibly special about watching former queens return, contestants grow every season, and women from different years and different walks of life come together because of their shared experience with this organization.

I hope that when people think of Miss Long Island, they don’t just think of beautiful women wearing crowns. I hope they think of kindness, service, empowerment, community, and a sisterhood that lasts a lifetime.

To every woman who has ever been part of this journey, whether you wore the crown, competed for it, or stood beside us cheering someone on, thank you for being part of something that means more to me than words could ever express.

Ten years later, my greatest accomplishment isn’t the crowns or the glam, it’s the community we’ve created, the women we’ve brought together, and the love that continues long after the crown is passed to the next person.

My heart is forever in this sisterhood. ❤️👑 by @leannepinardbaum

Today is one of the most bittersweet days of the year. 👑🥹

As we prepare to crown our new Miss Long Island and Miss Long Island Teen, we also say farewell to two incredible young women, Geanna Koulouris and Shyla Silva.

This year has been filled with unforgettable memories, incredible accomplishments, laughter, and so many proud moments. Watching you both grow, represent our organization, and make an impact on those around you has been such a privilege.

After 10 years of directing this pageant, I can tell you that saying goodbye to our reigning queens never gets easier. But the beautiful thing about Miss Long Island is that you may be giving up your crowns today, but you will never give up your place in this sisterhood.

I am so incredibly proud of you both and everything you’ve accomplished. Thank you for making this year so special and for adding your own beautiful chapters to the legacy of Miss Long Island.

Here’s to closing one chapter, beginning another, and remembering that once a Miss Long Island girl, always a Miss Long Island girl. 💗👑 by @leannepinardbaum

Halloween festivities all week long! 🎃 We’re not done yet! Tomorrow is another jam packed day of Spidey and Glinda 🤪 Unless I decide to get them different costumes tomorrow 😅😅

Loved spending the night with our dance friends!! 🫶 by @leannepinardbaum

Giannina’s kindergarten photos are here!! I cannot believe how big my baby is 🥹🥰 by @leannepinardbaum

@pinkwitchesnightout was one for the books!! As a small business owner in Denville, it’s incredibly important to me that we participate in community events, even more when it’s benefiting the community members!!

This fundraising night brings in thousands of people and my heart is always so full when it’s done! 💖💖

Already cannot wait until next year! 🫶 by @leannepinardbaum

Our first trunk or treat and it was at a funeral home! ⚰️ We had so much fun at our Halloween party with our pre k friends! So great seeing everyone together, decorating cookies and pumpkins and ending the celebration with a trunk or treat! 🎃

We are grateful for friends we made so early on in our kids lives and watching them grow up together is probably my favorite thing!

Thank you @jamieyourtitleagent for hosting 🫶 by @leannepinardbaum

Happiest of birthdays to my best friend, my husband, and the best dad to our beautiful babies!!

I am so beyond proud of you every single day! Your dedication to our family, your players, and your career never goes unnoticed. You give so much of yourself to everything you do, and we are so lucky to have you!

I hope this year and this next chapter bring you everything you’ve been dreaming of and more. This is such a big year for us, and I cannot wait for everything that’s ahead! There’s no one else I’d rather do this life with.

We love you so much!! ❤️ by @leannepinardbaum

I still can’t believe that last night we got to bring Lavish Everlasting to an event with COCA-COLA! ❤️🥤🥹

When I think about how Lavish started and the opportunities we’ve had along the way, it really is crazy to see how much we’ve grown. Getting to work with iconic brands like Coca-Cola is something I could have only dreamed of when I started this business! 🥹

One of the most rewarding parts of building Lavish has been the incredible people we’ve met along the way and for the people who believe in what we do and trust us to be part of the moments that matter to them. A special thank you to the event coordinator for believing in Lavish and welcoming us into such an incredible event!

There’s something really special about watching something you’ve poured so much of yourself into grow into more than you ever imagined.

So proud of our team, so thankful for everyone who has been part of this journey, and so excited for everything still ahead! ❤️
