Sex and the City is Back!

The day is nearing when all us Sex and the City fanatics can get another dose of our favorite girls. Who is getting dressed to the nine's to go and see this movie? Can you just imagine the kind of fashion that is going to be hitting the movie theatres?

One of our favorite dresses of all time is "Mille Feuille" (a thousand layers). Carrie wears this dress as she is waiting for Petrovsky in the hotel room in Paris.



Of course there are many other great outfits that Carrie wears...and many other very interesting ones that you wouldn't be caught dead in. The fashion of Sex and the City is just one of the exciting elements of the movie that we await in great anticipation to see.

What a great way to spend a night with the girls...put on your best outfit, grab a cosmo and we'll see you at the movies!

The Ring Bearer and Flower Girl

Lori Miles, a Vancouver photographer, just sent us a few photos from one of the recent weddings we did. This one was taken during the ceremony while Sarah was getting the Ring Bearer and Flower Girl ready to walk down the aisle.



Instead of carrying a ring pillow, this Ring Bearer carried a white teddy bear with the rings tied around his neck.

We always tell people, no matter what you rehearse with the Ring Bearer and Flower Girl they are bound to surprise you on the day. They are always the scene stealers before the Bride takes her walk down the aisle.
