Likewise, we share in common with our clients our dedication to our own families. I have owned Williamsburg Wedding Design for over five years, and have watched it grow along with my five-year-old twins Hayden ... Read Full Story

I owe a debt of gratitude to Niki Worrell at the Williamsburg Nanny Agency, and I plan to repay her by spreading the word about her fantastic, classy, professional service that I know many of you need.
After multiple attempts to contact me (it's not just my blog that is suffering a little from my over-scheduling...my kids and my brides first, everything else a close second), Niki introduced herself to me at the Two Rivers Bridal Show a few weeks ago, and in a short time I've become ...

I just had a birthday. The number is just this much higher than I'd like to confess to...but okay, here goes. I turned 32 on Sunday. My kids bought me a HUGE fancy strawberry shortcake (they're 4...maybe I had something to do with the cake). Turns out that they like it way more than I do, so they'll be eating cake through February. I enjoyed my kids' company - gift enough for me.
The point? I'm feeling wise today, so it's time to impart a little bit of that wis... Read Full Story
I'm getting a lot of questions these days regarding candy buffets (my new favorite obsession...ask away). Here is some information I shared with one of my clients recently in response to her e-mail for any tips I might have:
