Plus, your entrance fee will be donated to our charity, Hathaway- Sycamores, an organization dedicated to providing hope for children in vulnerable situations and guidance for families struggling through tough times.

A Soolip Wedding....a Success!

What a gorgeous day for the Soolip Wedding show on Sunday! Stephanie Navarro (pictured above with me) helped me out at my booth(above, center) and thank God she did! We never stopped from the minute the doors opened till the end of the show at 4. We had so much fun and I think we'll be doing some weddings this year and next year because of it. The photo above me and Stephanie, is of me working on a July bride-to-be, Maya Jazner ( photo by Jen O'Sullivan).

What's wonderful about the show are the amazingly talented ( and, incredibly nice) vendors we get to meet and, hopefully work with. Some of my favorites are, the Butterend Cakery( the absolute BEST tasting and artistically beautiful cakes), Made by Meg catering(where the foodies go when they're looking for a caterer), Wisteria Lane Flower Shop (an eco-friendly floral studio) who also did the beautiful and fragrant flowers for my booth, Copper WillowPaper Studio, an eco-correct home-grown letterpress studio, and Jen O'Sullivan, the best boutique wedding photographer.

Wanda Wen, who started A Soolip Wedding is to be congratulated along with Eric and Brooke, for putting together the most beautiful bridal event of the year at the heavenly Bel Air Bay Club in Pacific Palisades. I felt honored to be a part of it.
