To think that every 2 weeks I will get to chat with broads nationwide - about what other broads are doing in their community, reivew new products, keep everyone up to date with the nationwide contest for brides in 2008 (and publish a book).....geez!!!!I'm tickeled green:)

I just want to thank everyone for all of their love and support and I hope that 2008 brings everyone a breath of fresh air and leads them down a path that they have always wanted to travel in. My old dreams are finally becoming a reality!!!!

The amazing and talented VA videographer, Jennifer Sabini Evans is offering 6 hours of her time to 4 couples who are having a Green Wedding in 2008! This package is normally worth $1200!
To enter, email a description of your green wedding event to beachybeanie@yahoo.com. I'm looking for the most creative, authentic green and organic wedding. It’s simply beautiful to see more couples not only making a commitment of love to each other but to love the Earth as well.

First thing to do this year

Google myself.

If you haven't, maybe you should! For me it was mind boggling.
I can only hope that 2008 brings more joy. I need a sense of direction, a real direct purpose for life. I'm not happy with where I am. Almost 30 - wow...not where I thought I would be at this age. To think that I am just starting my life is pretty amazing....Where does the time go?

If anyone were to Google me, they would find lots about nothing. To think that I wanted to make a difference in the lives of youth and create fairytale weddings on DVD, or even have my own photographs published in a coffee table book....(I've dabbed in bits of everything but never dove into anything)

This year is going to be on MOTIVATION & DRIVE. I need to get organized and stay focused on what I really want to achieve and not be afraid of falling short. 2008 is my year!!

Maybe I'll have a friend suggest me to wikipedia - just for kicks, and hope the powers that be think I'm notable enough:)

Either way, I'm determined to do something productive for 2008.

BTP Launches New Website for 2008

The new website is up and running! I just want to thank BluDomain for all of their help. It took a few months before I was ready for it to be up and running, but it was worth the wait. The staff is very friendly and super helpful. I cannot thank Harold and Waid (the flash guru) for all of his patience and hard work. Thank you for making BTP come to life. Finally a website to sit back and be proud to share with the world. Best money I have spent thus far!! BluDomain Rocks!!

Perks of A Personal Wedding Website

Keeping your friends, family and wedding party in the loop of your upcoming wedding can be very time consuming and burdensome. But not anymore. Having your own Personal Wedding Website will take care of all that, plus much more.

Having a professional wedding site is a great way to share all the news and events on your upcoming wedding. You can post the date, location, time and directions to your Stag, Shower, Rehearsal and other events. You can post your Registry and add items to a personal Wish List, list local attractions for friends and family that are visiting and collect best wishes with your Guest Book.

Getting the word out about your site is as easy as including your web address on your invitations. We have seen many invitations with 'For more information, and directions, please visit www.your-wedding.com.' This way, everyone invited to your wedding, including those who can't make it, can go to your wedding website to get up to date information. You can edit any of the information on your site, even the style, to keep it updated and reflect any changes you have made. Another great benefit of a web address is the ability to put it on wedding favors, wedding bulletins or for posting at the reception. This way people will come back to see your wonderful wedding day photos.

Keeping track of those coming to your wedding has never been easier either. Offering online RSVP is one of the most popular features of a wedding website. It saves you time and money, no extra envelopes or stamps required, and long waits for getting back the RSVP's in the mail. Just put a simple link to your site in the invitation and your friends can RSVP at your website and you will be sent a message right away. Your site will also keep the RSVP's in memory so you can manage your list and know who you didn't hear back from yet.

The above features, along with many more, will really make planning a wedding, and sharing it with friends and family around the world, a pleasurable experience. A Personal Wedding Website, let everyone share the joy of your big day.
