Reward for Staying Married?
My friend sent me this article, and I just had to share. Most of us would never marry for money, but what about receiving money because you’re married? This rewards program will do just that. For shopping and marriage can get you some moola through uTango.
Here’s an excerpt from the King 5 website:
The Phillips’ are members of “uTango,” [...]
Making e-Friends
Since starting my blog back in December, I’ve met some pretty cool people online. And while I’ll probably never meet them in person, they’re my friends…my e-friends. Here are a few cool folks whom I’ve “met” so far, and apparently like me enough to put me on their website. Awww….you guys rock.

Weddingbee Valentine Swap
I participated in the first ever Weddingbee Valentine’s Day card swap, and I just received my second Valentine. Yay! Kristie Y. from BC made a beautiful little folding card that closed with a ribbon. She even decorated the envelope.
Here are the ones Mrs. Bee sent out. I’d take a picture of the one I received, [...]
A Brand New Look
So I was casually checking out my usual e-haunts…blogroll, friends’ websites, and the Association of Bridal Consultants website and lo and behold, ABC has a brand new look. I’d heard a new logo was coming, but I was surprised at the new look their website was sporting. I must confess that the way the old site looked kept [...]
NW Bridal Showcase Pictures
Here are a few pictures from the Northwest Bridal Showcase last weekend. We had such a great time, and two brides-to-be even volunteered to be photographed! They were such good sports…I just love the bachelorette style crown and sash. That’s a girl who knows how to have fun. And the flowers and veil looked so [...]
Welcome!
We had such a great time at bridal show this weekend. Hopefully you were able to sample some good food and collect some cool freebies. If you’re stopping by for the first time, you’ll find a mix of advice, resources, a wedding and events blog (and a bit about me).
Oh, and some really good news: Garden of Eden [...]
Mispelled, I mean Misspelled Wedding Words
I’m a big fan of spelling words correctly (even if I don’t get it right all the time), but some wedding words really test my abilities. Words like boutonniere and trousseau (I assume I can only blame our copying the French for these ones) make me sound out each letter so I can get it right. For [...]
You Like Me. You really Like Me!*
Holy moly! I just found out that I’ve been added to the 2008 Best Wedding Blogs & The Blogs We Love List list over at Weddings In A Box. Not only is it awesome to see my site *jumps up and down and points excitedly at the screen*, I’m among some pretty fine names in the wedding blogging [...]
The Cool Kind of Mail
I couldn’t believe it. When I got home today, the Winter 2008 Seattle Metropolitan Bride and Groom was waiting for me. I don’t remember ordering any magazines (although I would be smart to since buying them off the shelves is time consuming and costly). Could this be an unknown perk of being an ABC member? [...]
Welcome to 2008!
Here’s a toast to all the fun we had in 2007 and to the fun and wonderful times to come in 2008.
Happy New Year!
