Wow this has been an interesting week. My coworker got married back in May. He wanted me to take a look at his wedding pictures and pick one to give to the families. This is something that all newly weds go through. It took me months to figure out if I would make mini albums for them or give 8x10's to put in the living space of their house. It drove me crazy. He and his new wife had actually chosen a picture. The picture was of the bride standing kinda on display and the groom off in the back ground. Not really in the picture. My advice was to find a picture of them together, not kissing, not looking at one another, not with family, just them.
As wedding season comes to a close, many couples are faced with this problem. As trivial as it may sound in the bigger picture of life and marriage, it can become a hassle. This is the most important day in the history of your marriage. Although you have hundreds of moments captured on film, its only a few that can show, define, and sum up dept of the day. Those are the pictures that will stand out and be remembered by close family, children and grand children to come. To maybe one day incorporate your special day into their special day.
I chose to give mini albums to the parents and grand parents. Each personalized to include pictures of each respective family. No one had any complaints. I did however hold back a few pictures that really showed the sum of our day. The picture of myself and new husband mid air jumping over the broom that his mom made us. That's the moment that I want our kids to see every day growing up and remember when they get ready to have their own wedding day.

A Cricut and a Dream
Hello fellow Host and Hostess,
Hope every one had an amazing weekend. Staying cool and drinking plenty of water.
Well, I think some of you know me already. I am the official blogger for Caliradio. I am also a huge crafter and I love to entertain. This here is my introductory post for my SeeBriesBlog dedicated to home, entertaining, and crafting. I have been able to post on the CaliRadio blog about Summer entertaining, but SeeBriesBlog is solely to help the average everyday person bring out their inner Host or Hostess, and to make the most dull event come to LIFE. Every week I will be posting about the seasons, holidays, whatever crafts I am currently working on, and parties I am designing. I am a Creative Consultant. Party Planner seems too dry to express all of this fabulousness.
Before I go any further into advice or tutorials, I want to thank all of you for following and reading the CaliRadio blog, and continuing to follow me into my own endeavors. Thanks for giving this chick with just a Cricut and a dream, a chance to bring some sparkle to your next event.
Elephants for luck & crafting for peace
