Haaaaaaaaaaappy 3rd Anniversary, Embellish!!

Holy sa-mok-iesssssssssssss, Embellish is threeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee years old as of March 6th {and, yes, I'm about a week late}!!  But, Oh Happy Day!!  We have adored being a part of so many wonderful wedding days.  And we look forward to many more!! 

We would not be here without so many precious brides entrusting us to embellish their wedding day with the wedding veil of their choice.  Such an honor to have been picked by so many.  With nothing more than a glimmer in our eyes, we embarked on this intimidating journey just three short years ago.  With you by our side, we were destined for success.  And now, we have accomplished more than I every dreamed...

We've shipped a veil to Ireland, shipped a veil across the US, had veils in two different shops, made many a new friends, had veils go down fashion show runways, had veils re-worn by sisters, attended Vow {Atlanta Mart's wedding show}, were a part of Southern Weddings 12 Days of Christmas giveaway promotion, have seen our veils on Pinterest, and now have a {healthy?} fear of scissors.  I can only wonder what's next?!

And it's all thanks to you...  So, a very hearty thaaaaaaaaaaank you, dear friends, for making our dreams come true!  I still can't believe... we're 3!!!

Wait a minute, is it an Anniversary or a Birthday?!

Reminiscing the 12 Days of Southern Weddings Christmas 2012 Giveaway

Today I'm reminiscing the 12 Days of Southern Weddings Christmas 2012 Giveaway we were a part of last December.  I realized I never blogged about the experience which is a total shame.  It was such a fun and busy time and we adored every second...  

I cannot say enough nice things about Southern Weddings Magazine!!  They emailed out of the blue saying they had tracked us down from a pin on Pinterest and wanted to know if we would be interested in participating in their giveaway.  I looked at the previous year's giveaways and saw Lilli Pulitzer.  Whaaaaaaaat, you have Lilli and you want US?!  

Yes, yes, YES!!

The Southern Weddings' girls were such a pleasure to work with and it was quite the honor to be chosen - the whole experience was sweet as honey.  We made new friends, celebrated the honor with old friends, received inquiries, got orders, and got to bless a bride on her big day with the wedding veil of her choice.  What a fantastic holiday season!!
