1.  Add a spring motif:  such as a tulip or butterfly.

2. Consider color: spring pastels, greens, etc.

3. Get whimsical : fun, flirty looks to evoke a festive spring feeling.

4. Add greens : grasses and greenery are a natural look for spring weddings.  Plus it’s a great filler and most times is cheap.

5. Choose blooms in season: classics include tulips, daffodils, lilies (especially calla lilies and easter lilies), magnolias, gardenias, hydrangeas, gerbera daisies, apple or cherry blossoms.

To all the brides and women who want to make a difference,

My thoughts are with the thousands upon thousands of women and children who are not as blessed as we are to have the basic right of freedom to be who they were created to be. I’m talking about the victims of prostitution slavery, the industry that we’ve come to know as human trafficking.

Over one million women and children are exploited in the global commercial sex trade each year, according to the U.S. Department of State. Although, sex trafficking is happening everywhere, including the U.S. and Canada, our focus this year will be in partnering with the work of  Breaking Chains Network out of Belgium.

Last year we developed the website for http://www.RunForRescue.org to aid the women in Cambodia and this year I’ve decided to step up to the plate and do a little more then that.  I’ve decided to do the run myself too and on March 7th 2010, I will be running the Walt Disney World 20+ km (13 mile) half marathon.

The money raised is going to help women in Belgium on every level physical, emotional and spiritual.  I’m asking you to partner with me and although you may not physically run with me, you can  still be a part of rescuing women and children. Your donation can make a difference in the lives of women who have yet to discover freedom.

My goal is to raise $2000 or more. To donate online, we’ve setup a page at http://www.herweddingplanner.com/donate

The responsibility to help in the rescue and restoration of women seems like a huge undertaking. However, you and I can make a difference with even just one woman and one child.

Thank you and God Bless!

The five rings represent the five major regions of the world: Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania. Every national flag in the world includes at least one of the five colors, which are (from left to right) blue, yellow, black, green, and red.

With the 2010 Winter Olympics coming to a close in a few days, I thought I’d speak of the colors used in the Olympic Rings and how they can be a great choice for your wedding.

Color Moods:

Blue and green: Calming, cool.  Choosing one of these colors adds a relaxing atmosphere to your event.  It tends to release a calming effect.

Yellow, red : excitement, romance.  Warm colors rev us up and get us going.  Using any of these colors let’s your guests know a party is starting!  These colors tend to release emotions.

Black: unifying.  It makes a statement on it’s own, but can be use to tone another color down.  When used on it’s own this color tends to be very sophisticated.
