Party with a Purpose!


Last Sunday I attend Sara and Brigg's "Party with a Purpose" put on by Connect The Dots Events. It was a great event and who doesn't like to party when there is a great cause involved. Over 2000lbs of non-perishable food was donated at the event for the local Food Pantry. Thanks to Sara for asking us to design the save the date magnets, invitations, name tags, vendor thank you board and the design for the reusable bags that were given as gifts.

New Wedding Tool from BRIDES



I just ran across this new iphone tool that is pretty handy for finding the right wedding dress.

Brought to you by BRIDES Magazine and The NearbyNow Team, Brides Dressing Room is the first-ever digital shopping concierge for brides on the go.

From your iPhone, you can browse both wedding dresses and bridesmaids dresses from all the famous names you have come to trust in wedding attire. When you find something you like, we’ll track it down at a store near you, and make an appointment for you to try on the dress of your dreams.

HOW IT WORKS
• Browse both wedding dresses and bridesmaids dresses by silhouette, brand and price
• Have something particular in mind? Search by neckline, sleeve style, skirt style and length
• Zoom in and out of selected products to see details.
• Tap ‘Find It Near Me’ to find a nearby store within 50 miles.
• Confirm the item is available to try on by simply entering your contact information.
The Brides Dressing Room concierge team will place a call to the store during normal business hours and make an appointment for you so you can try on the dress of your dreams
• Within 10 minutes, you will receive an e-mail and/or text message with details. You will even have the name of the salesperson to find when you get in-store.

I'm so excited about our upcoming Holiday Open House. You will not want to miss out on this event. We are not only showcasing our projects from this year, but we are "unwrapping" our favorite things. They might even be great gifts this holiday season.

My Favorite Things



I am so excited for the launch of Lonny Magazine. It has to up there with my favorite things. Although....you'll have to come to our Holiday Open House to see what "Our Favorite Things" are this year. This is just a added bonus. This is an online ezine which kind of fills the void of the loved Domino Magazine that folded a couple months ago.
