The Wedding Was Almost Destroyed By A Tornado!
October 12, 2007
I just posted a new article on Michiana Weddings On August 11, 2007 at Culver Military Academy, Laura Schrage married Christopher Campbell, but on the Wednesday before, an early morning tornado wiped out their reception tent and all the work that had gone into the wedding day so far. Cynthia Basker of Celebrated Events and her team leaped into action to salvage the day.
Bridesmaid’s Survival Kit
October 12, 2007
Okay ladies, if you are going to be a bridesmaid, like me next spring, then this may just be the item for you, The Bridesmaid’s Survival Kit. The smaller version of The Wedding Survival Kit! My sister and I were at Girly Girl, I have got to stop going there or I’m going to bankrupt myself, when Cyndi pointed out her new products to us. It’s got a Folding Hair Brush with Mirror, Hair Spray, Clear Elastics, Bobby Pins, Earring Backs, Emery Board, Clear Nail Polish, Mending Kit, Double-Sided Tape, Stain Remover, Static Remover, Breath Freshener, Deodorant Wipe, Tampon, Adhesive Bandages, Pain Reliever, Handkerchief, Dancing Socks.
Actually I’m trying to talk my sister into giving the new Shemergency Survival Kit away as a bridesmaid gift. This one has a few more “everyday” needed supplies.
Either way these items are too cool and useful. Check them out at Girly Girl or online at Ms. and Mrs.

The Video Catches the Crook
October 8, 2007
Not having a wedding video? Think again, it may save the day and catch the crook! Of course here’s hoping you never face what this could did.
October 2, 2007 (RIGBY, Idaho) - An Idaho wedding crasher is charged with helping herself to more than just a piece of cake. A home video of Sciara and Charles Dougherty was taken at their wedding in Rigby, Idaho.
While the unsuspecting bride and groom enjoyed their first dance, an uninvited guest was captured in the background trying to blend in. Kim Cooper reportedly introduced herself to friends and family and even helped decorate the bridal car.
It wasn’t until the newlyweds discovered dozens of gift cards and envelopes with cash missing that they considered the uninvited guest a suspect.
“We said, ‘What if she took them?’ Then we thought, “No, nobody would do something like that, that was our day, that’s all about us,” said Sciara Dougherty.
Cooper was caught cashing in the gift cards at various stores. She’s charged with burglary

Whirly Hanging Candleholder
With Christmas coming soon I’ve been on the outlook for some creative Christmas ideas and this is too cool. An candle holding ornament from CB2!
These would be great hung from a tree (be careful though, use artificial flame retardent trees) or flown from the ceiling over the tables. CB2 carries several different designs. Check them out!

Why Men Love…
October 6, 2007I’ve been recommending this over on BridalFilms.net an it’s gotten good feedback, so I thought I’d post it here. My copy is on order so I can’t say how good it really is.
Book description:
——————————-
Contending that some women are “too nice,” comedian and radio show host Sherry Argov has written Why Men Love Bitches: From Doormat to Dreamgirl-A Woman’s Guide to Holding Her Own in a Relationship. “I’m not recommending that a woman have an abrasive disposition,” Argov writes, “The woman I’m describing is kind yet strong. She doesn’t give up her life, and she won’t chase a man.” Her sassy book is filled with scenarios and advice aimed at making women subtly stronger and self-empowered. Argov’s principles, which range from the farfetched to the downright absurd, include “If you give him a feeling of power, he’ll want to protect you and he’ll want to give you the world” and “A little distance combined with the appearance of self-control makes him nervous that he may be losing you.” The book, which has already been featured on The View and The O’Reilly Factor, should make waves with its controversial view of relationships.
