Memories of 9/11

We who are in the ‘business’ of life celebrations are so lucky. We get to play a part in some of the most important moments of peoples’ lives and we get to celebrate life and love with each and every event.

The parasol is an ancient symbol of the Godesses' love and protection for all. So even though I no longer work at the actual wedding events, in my way I get to play a role that I hope matters. I am still honored to be able to bring some of that universal love and comfort [with style] to weddings all over the world, to be a small part of a wedding celebration - a day that is memorable for all the right reasons.

With much love and respect to all of the people in America’s special events industry on this the anniversary of 9/11 and especially to those who are a part of any celebration today be it a memorial or commemorative day for the past and for those lost or a day of celebrating the future and love, I give you my respect and gratitude.

Thank you to MeWha Photography for one of my favorite photos of all time- the couple in Times Square New York City. We love New York and America.
