Trash the dress? We have all seen recent photos of brides having their pictures taken in water, dirt, subways, construction sites, abandoned buildings, paint, and even set on fire. By the end of the photo shoot the wedding dresses could be soiled or completely destroyed.
So what do you think about this style of photography? Personally, I made my own wedding dress. I remember picking out the fabrics and spending hours hand sewing on the lace beading. Every once in a while, I take it out the closet and just walk around in it amazed at the fact that it still fits after all these years. Okay, I confess I can only zip it halfway up now. But that still counts as fitting! Right? So I don't think that I could have trashed my dress. But that was then...
...this is now. I must admit, the pictures are amazing! They are edgy and creative. It takes a courageous bride to painstakingly pick out her dress, go to fittings, exchange vows in the dress, and then trash it. So I lift my glass to courageous brides! I hope there are many more of you.

It is time for Halloween again! The kids love this time of year. Well of course they do. Who wouldn't love getting dressed up in a fancy costume and collecting all the free candy you can eat? But I want to know, why do the kids get to have all the fun?
The leaves have started to change colors and fall off the trees outside. So I got inspired by these great fall colors. I love this orange and chocolate brown with lots of gold accents.
Everyone wants to be a bride! Check out this great scarecrow bride at Scarecrows in the Garden at Atlanta Botanical Garden. There are 97 original scarecrows designed by businesses and individuals for this annual event. The scarecrows range from cute to scary, but they are all worth seeing.

Marriage is the joining of two people legally, emotionally, and financially . It should be a union of people who are equally yoked. Who are willing to have a 50/50 relationship. In honor of this union, here is a 50/50 martini drink recipe for you.
