Many people I know do not like china, my own mother included. I have many brides that think it is stuffy, old fashioned and ugly. Well, let me put in a few good words about china, and if you still feel that it isn’t for you, well, fair enough.
When many people think about registering for china or china in general, they think of their grandmothers or maybe the random china plates sitting in the local thrift store. Well, first off, that china sitting in your grandmother’s cupboards is vintage, perhaps very rare and valuable, and stunning i am sure. However, these days, china comes in every style you can imagine. And since my words of love for china can only go so far, I’ve posted some pictures of china that perhaps will convince you it’s not so old fashioned after all.

…I am not. But that doesn’t mean I don’t try. And though many think I actually keep shoes in my oven, I don’t because I actually love to bake and cook. But, alas, I am horrid at it. Many assume that since I am creative and love throwing parties that I must be an awesome cook. Clearly, I have everyone fooled. It’s my amazing skills of what I like to call, “semi-homemade” that get me through. I did make 2 wedding cakes though and as much fun as it was, I am pretty sure I will never do that again. But on Sunday, I decided to try to bake again. Here’s what I baked:
I had the lovely opportunity to make Kate’s reception wedding dress. I could not have picked a better bride to sew a dress for.

Somewhere between the craziness of life and the rare moments I have had to catch my breath I realized my blog has fallen to the side, ignored. I have been busy. But there are no excuses to justify my lack of updates. The weddings and events I have done this summer and fall have been beautiful.
I also had the great opportunity to design and sew a wedding dress for a dear person that I grew up with. I will post pictures after her wedding.
And lastly, I had the awesome experience to travel to New York City for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. I got to see first hand what goes on in planning fashion shows and events. Having the great opportunity to actually assist in fashion week and the runway shows was amazing. I also got to see some amazing shows and meet some amazing people.
Currently, I am busy meeting with brides and working on their 2011 weddings, designing wedding dresses, planning a Breast Cancer event and getting ready for the holiday parties that will start flooding me in the blink of an eye.
Now, I know this isn’t the most detailed blog update, however, that’s because I truly feel that pictures are better than words. So check out the pictures, and until next time, remember to make life memorable.
Then you probably are looking for someone to take your engagement pictures, right? Well, one of the photographers I work with is offering a free engagement session… so email me if you are interested. He does amazing work!
