WedLuxe, a Canadian Great

Recently in my wedding blog browsing, I came across a great blog WedLuxe. This blog is written by the editor in chief of WedLuxe, a high end Canadian wedding magazine. The blog is extremely well written and has some of the best inspiration boards, fashion entrees, and everything else wedding, on the web. I thought I would share a couple of their boards I really like. Enjoy...

Comments on the Blog

Hi all, I hope everyone had a wonderful turkey filled day yesterday!

So I wanted to address a little problem a few people have brought to my attention. I have had quite a few people tell me they could not post a comment on my blog. So I looked into it and I hope it is fixed now. When you want to make a comment, just click on the comment button at the end of the post. A box will pop up for you to write in your note, and then right below it asks how you want to post the comment.
Basically this is just asking what search engine you use, if you do not see something familiar in the drop down box, then just click on anonymous. The last step is to type in the funny words you see in the bottom box and click post. I promise it is super simple. And please do leave comments, I simply love to get feed back, and would to love hear more from you and what you would like to see more of on the blog. And don't forget to sign it, so i know who sent it to me!!

Have a fantastic weekend, and let me just leave you with this great and yummy picture!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Tomorrow is my mother's Birthday, and traditionally I have always given her a coconut cake. Now, my mom has a bit of a problem and that is she does not share the cake with anyone, but eats the whole thing herself. Unfortunately my favorite chef/baker moved away recently so mom is not going to get her cake, so in honor of my mom here are some great pictures of coconut cupcakes!




For everyone else have a very wonderful and Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Best of the Valley


For most of you who know me, know that I am not one for tooting my own horn, but this was a pretty big thing. I was very lucky, and the people of Ketchum and Sun Valley voted me the Valley's Best Wedding Planner. So for all of those people who voted, I thank you very much. This is very much an honor!

My First Wedding

Last night I was going through some old pictures and I found this photo. It was taken about 29 years ago at my parents friends, Mike and Jana's wedding. I was very excited to be the flower girl. Looking back I'm not so excited about that hair cut my mom had given me. A bowl cut, really mom?


Have a great weekend!!!!

Cupcakes and Champagne

Two very good friends of mine have moved into new offices in Bellevue, Idaho, and they are having an open house tonight. I have featured both Michelle and her stationary as well as Kirsten and her photography on my blog many times. Below is their invitation to their open house. Please if you have a moment, stop by and if you can't make it check out their web sites! They are both wonderful talented people who I admire so much.
