Where on earth have I been?
Things got crazy in my life (not because of any wedding…I wish!!) and I just sort of stopped for a while. However, I am coming back? Not at full force but I am.
I also need some help from you, my roommate from the US is getting married in June and has asked me to sing 2 songs at her wedding. One upbeat, one slow.
Any ideas?
This is my roommates wedding. I’m the second from the right.
love the wording on this rsvp and that they ask for song requests
Love all of the wording! The only thing that worries me is the “number of people” part. You know?

that there are finishing courses for Brides (and possibly their bridesmaids) at Charles House in Cheshire and that would be something I would be so interested in.
I’ve always wanted to go to finishing school just to experience it, maybe notch up my manners a bit. Anyway, if any potential british brides are interested here is the link: http://www.finishingacademy.co.uk/bridalpath.html and underneath is ‘The Bridal Path’ itinerary offered by the academy.
