Some things in life are just meant to be. It has been said that each one of us has a soul mate, the person god has made special for each and every one of us. Unfortunately, we don't particularly know when we will find this love, it just happens. You could meet the love of your life in a grocery store, in college, perhaps it might be a friend of a friend.

Everyone has something memorable that is a special part of them inside and out. Just think about if one of your memories growing up had to do… Continue

With trends growing so rapidly, we look to be unique and special like we truely are in everything that we do. There is no exception when in comes to "the one and only special day" and all that leads up to it. Wedding vendors have realized this and take this in to account when showcasing to future brides what they can offer. Take it from me, I get to meet with some of the best of the best around. For instance there is Mrs. Letitia Clark-George. She has made it a priority to create unique themed… Continue
