An Important Job

When I was asked to plan an integral part of your wedding experience, I was overjoyed! I am so happy, proud, ecstatic, and honored to be your bridesmaid and to help plan your bridal shower. It has been a wonderful experience and I hope you make lots of fun, wonderful memories that will last a lifetime. You have made so many of my important days shine and I hope to make yours as memorable as you have made mine. You are going to be the most beautiful bride and I can’t wait to watch you walk down to the isle and start a new chapter of your life together. I am so happy and excited for the both of you! XOXO Emmy

An oldie, but goodie :)

 

Monique's engaged!

"Yay:) he proposed last night<3"

...those are the words that came out of your lips on Dec 29, 2012. 

Ok, the words that came onto my phone from your fingers, but same thing;)

I was so happy to hear that my beautiful, thoughtful, amazing friend was engaged and remember so clearly how excited you were when we spoke. 
There are so many people who have and will continue to wish you well through your engagement and then through your marriage...

...and I am overjoyed to be one of them. There are very definite reasons why you are loved by so many and I am so honored that you chose me to be one of your bridesmaids and to be by your side during your wedding... and through life! 
Love you lots, babe!!                                    
XOXO Amanda

A special request: Will you be my bridesmaid?

I received an invitation from Monique to attend a girl's night out event scheduled for mid-March during Nicole's spring break visit home from college. Arriving at Monique's, all the girls were there and everyone was laughing and enjoying each other's company. Monique pulled me off to the side and handed me a beautifully wrapped little box. Looking into Monique's eyes I could see the excitement twinkling in her eyes. Unsure why she was giving me a gift, I opened the box and inside was a beautiful silver knotted ring and a note: Will you be apart of my special day and honor me by being my bridesmaid?. Hugging Moe close I replied YES YES YES!!!

Monique, Nicole, Rachel (my sister) & I grew up together and we have always shared a very special bond. We were close in age and our mother's were sisters and also maintained a close relationship. Monique & I were born in the same year, exactly 4 months apart, which has always been a source of amusement amongst us cousins. 

I am looking forward to being apart of Moe's special day with an amazing group of girls. This is going to be great ladies!!

The cherry blossoms were in full bloom in LA's Little Osaka

Wedding Dress Shopping in LA

Shortly after she got engaged Moe and mom already had a trip planned to come visit me in LA! She made a couple appointments to shop for wedding dresses while she was in town. The first place was basically a dump and not at all what she thought the experience should be like. But she lucked out on the second try and found a beautiful boutique right down the street from my house. The owner was willing to let her come in for an appointment on her day off. The dresses were all so amazingly beautiful and she looked gorgeous in all of them! She fell in love with the second dress (not pictured here-just in case Tommy accidentally sees this blog) and knew it was the one! It fit her perfectly and only needs minimal alterations!
