We are getting our Fall 2009 bridal shipments in... slowly but surely. Most of them will all be in by September. I am really excited about some of the new styles that we will be carrying. Here are a few samples to show you a few! Have a great weekend!

Janet and I have a special place in our heart for Misti!  She is Kim's older sister and Kim has been a close friend of mine for years.  I didn't get to see Misti much since she doesn't live in the area as Kim and I, but each time I we got together... we always had a blast together.  Misti has so many great ideas that she must have had a tough time narrowing down all the plans to choose what she did.  Some brides are so creative and the planning ideas come to them so easily!  Must be nice! ;) I am so happy for this couple and their family.  Being around Misti and Kim's family being able to not only help Misti and her mom Judy as the Mother of the Bride, but will also being doing the same in 2 weeks with Kim and Judy again.  Misti, thank you for sharing these wonderful photos.  I love that you put a special touch on everything for your wedding day which makes it so YOU.  This is what a wedding should be- an expression of the bride and groom...

Jennifer was such a treat to spend time with!  She's down to Earth, beautiful, adorable, fun, size 0, what's not to love? *grin*  I just enjoy reading her blog and it goes to show I am a sucker for this love stuff. ;)  It's amazing that you do something for a living and never get tired of it.  I work with brides and prom students/parents, friends and family all day and never get tired of hearing a great love story. Here is a WONDERFUL love story that I want to share with all of you saps out there! She goes through all the info on her dress, the BIG DAY, the planning and all the decisions she made.  I love all the charm she incorporated into the attire and the decor.  It's what a wedding should be- an expression of the bride and groom.  She definitely captured ever detail to play into thier Texas taste.

Today was a special Easter Sunday!  My neice, Alexandra Elise, was baptised today and I am so honored to not only be her aunt but her Godmother and Zach is her Godfather. :)  We love both our neices so much and are always thrilled to spend time with them.  They grow so fast and crack me up with the things they do! Madeleine (our older neice) is talking up a storm and doing the best impersonations of a ham child!  She is such a hoot and I can't wait for her to have fun times with her baby sister too!  What a great weekend of wonderful memories.  Hope all of you had a GREAT Easter weekend as well!  In asking our customers "What are your plans for the holiday weekend?"... most of you responded with "Food and Family Time".  What a great combination!  I can't think of a better way of spending time than with those two things bringing it all together.  I remember my Saviour who died for the sins of the world and look forward to rememb...
