Another Beautiful Wedding….and flower girl dress

The bridal business has been a real joy to work in.  I don’t know if I will do this the rest of my life, but it sure makes me happy to participate in wedding festivities.   Early this month, I traveled to Kentucky for what was likely the most magnificent wedding I saw in a long, long time.  I have been fortunate to attend a few weddings each year via my clients, but this wedding was a family wedding, and honestly, I think we have a new WEDDING PROFESSIONAL in my family (LOL), my sister. I was so proud of all she did and happy to share in her excitement this past year, getting her “girl on”,  for Emma, like me, is surrounded by testosterone in the form of three boys (I have two, and trust me, I get sick and tired of smelly socks, football and shavings on the floor).

The couture flower girl dresses were from our Pegeen Fairytale Collections Style 904.

I promise to share more of this wedding because it truly was a wonderful event, filled with TONS of roses and pink and all the things Emma and I missed out on during our child-rearing days. So to you my sister in pink, bravo.  I am so proud of what you did!

Oh boy – here we go…. I love Gene Simmons even more!

I have to admit – I am a “Family Jewels” addict.  I am not the kind who follows the celebrity ins and outs (except of course when they purchase Pegeen for family weddings) but I was so interested in hearing him last week on Outnumbered. (Fox). He made such good sense and for any of you that did not hear his perspective :  ” A mother who loses a child is always about family and less about politics,” he continued. “On either side, it’s a terrible thing that’s happening.”

I watched Gene Simmons since I got hooked on Family Jewels – I mean the guy is really business smart.  I was never a KISS fan, but certainly I was cheering him on The Apprentice a few years ago – makes good business sense.
