Saving Money on Little Ones: The Tuxedos

On: April 23rd, 2009 at 10:09 pm | Number of Comments » 0

There are few things that truly bug me about the wedding industry, but one of them has to be that in my area of the world, renting tuxedos for babies and toddlers cost as much as renting adult tuxedos. You’d think the lesser amount of material would mean a smaller price. The only thing I [...]


The Tough Stuff

On: March 25th, 2009 at 2:57 pm | Number of Comments » 3

I started physical therapy after baby Emmeline was born, and sadly, I will have to put my 2009 event season on hold. 
It was a hard decision, but I’m no good to my clients if I’m not good for myself (the parallels of motherhood here are amazing). I’m too much of a perfectionist to give people [...]


Shoes for the Youngest Wedding Members

Sorry for my absence. In the last few months, I’ve added motherhood to the list of things I do, and I’m loving it. It’s motherhood that has inspired this post.
Formal wear for babies and young kids can be tough. There’s finding something that fits (and still fits when the wedding comes around), keeping it clean, [...]


New Cell Phone Law Begins Today

Sorry for the absolute lack of blogging lately; I’ve been out sick and well, the computer has been the last thing on my mind this week. (Bad blogger…no biscuit for you!).
But, I couldn’t let this go without posting. The much talked about cell phone law takes effect in Washington State today. What does this mean [...]

This would be one for Wordless Wednesday, but I can never let a picture go without a few words. This is Stacey Jehlik, Wedding Coordinator extraordinaire, fellow ABC member, and owner of Breathe…Savor the Day. I was lucky enough to be asked to help her with a wedding last holiday weekend, and while at the [...]


Our Jars are Famous

I’m so excited! Last month, Miss Cherry Pie of Weddingbee fame talked about gathering up mason jars for centerpieces and candle holders. I told her I had a few around the house after a thorough garage cleaning and offered them up. We met, had a tasty beverage at Starbucks and talked weddings for a few [...]

Sorry for the recent absence in blogging. I’ve been keeping busy, but I have loads to catch my readers up on.
First, here’s an article about Washington Redskin’s player, Chris Cooley about his recent (at the time upcoming) marriage to former cheerleader Christy. Maybe it was the fact that it was a Washington State player, [...]


The Office Wedding

I didn’t want to watch it, but my guy kept up a friendly persistence that finally won me over. We rented season one of The Office, the American adaptation of the British comedy series about life in an office at a paper company. It didn’t take long before I was hooked. What took four years [...]

The title of this post says it all! One of my daily reads has added a new twist to her blog. Yes, she’s been finding fabulous wedding things without actually planning a wedding. But not anymore. Her guy asked her to marry him recently. I love this post.
Congratulations!
