A Dance with Dad..

With today being Father's Day it only seemed fitting to blog about a special part of any wedding: The Father/Daughter dance.  Now i don't know about you but at every wedding i have ever been to i can almost guarantee you that i will tear up just a little when i see a Bride dance with their Father. There is something about the moment that is so touching and special. It's like in that moment they are the only two people in the room and they realize how much they love each other and what a very special relationship they have with one another. It may be special because they have been best friends and sidekicks the Brides whole life and Dad was the one she could always count on. It may be special because maybe the Bride and her Dad hadn't always been very close but in that moment they feel a closeness they've never shared. Regardless of the relationship it is always such a memorable and heartwarming experience to watch the dance between Father and Daughter. To all of my already married followers, remember back to how great it felt when you were in the spotlight newly married sharing that special dance with your dad. Don't wait for another big event to share that moment again, go tell him you love him and go dance with him just for fun! To my brides to be make sure that you slow down and relish the moment you have in that dance with your dad- the pictures, the memories, that song, that moment- you will never forget. Happy Father's Day to all of the Dad's out there, especially mine,and here's to more special dances to come!

It's the little things that make me happy..

Sometimes it is the littlest thing that can make me the happiest girl in the world. A kiss on the forehead from my husband. a snuggle with my puppies in the morning, or a quick "I miss you" from a friend on Facebook. One small thing that makes me ridiculously happy is bridal magazines.  i just LOVE when the latest Brides issue comes out.. When i was planning my own wedding i waited anxiously every few weeks for the newest issue to arrive in my mailbox. I would run every day giddy with excitement to open the mailbox door. I'd peer inside to find what i hoped to be the shiny new issue wrapped in clear plastic with my name and address typed out oh so neatly on the label. The days that it was there was like Christmas. I would rush inside tear open the plastic wrapping and stare at the cover with a smile. I knew that i was about to be in Wedding World for an hour or so where i could get all the latest trends, color ideas, wedding planning tips, and see pictures of  dresses,flowers, and decor. i LOVE being in that Wedding World.  I have always been told that success is doing something that you love. I LOVE wedding planning, i LOVE getting to make brides wedding dreams come true and treating each of their weddings as my own, and what i really LOVE is that even though i am a married woman, i still have a reason to read that Brides magazine that still gives me pure joy and excitement every single time i open that mailbox door.
