Five Couples Escape the Familiar for Destination Weddings - Louisville.com

David’s Bridal and white high-top Converse. Khaki Tommy Hilfiger blazer, khaki Calvin Klein slim-fit pants, navy Roundtree and Yorke leather suspenders, chestnut Crevo Camden leather boots.Makeup: Maggie Bellamy with Makeup by Maggie and the Browtique“You don’t have to have a destination elopement to elope,” Hannah says. “You can elope somewhere cool in public in the town that you live in and skip the cost of a venue and save an incredible amount of money. If you choose somewhere in nature, you don’t even need to buy decorations. If you’re worried about celebrating with or including friends and family, just have a reception after the elopement. Your wedding day and wedding planning are both as hard and as stressful as you make them be.”Kaitlan Bondurant & Robin HerringtonWed on October 20, 2018?Cliffview Lodge, Red River Gorge, Campton, KentuckyPhotographer: Mickie WintersFlowers: Bel-Air Florist, Versailles, KentuckyAttire: Dress from Madison James. Suit from Wildfang.?Hair: Lavish Looks, Sparkle BeelerKaitlan is from Cincinnati and Robin is from Louisville, so Red River Gorge was a good meeting point between the two locations. “Standing in front of the beautiful gorge with all of our friends and family was magical,” Robin says. “We had 60 guests and it was the perfect amount for us. We were able to give all of our guests personal attention, and by the end of the weekend everybody felt like one big family.“(Instagram is) great for initial inspiration, but we started to second-guess our planning decisions after seeing a gorgeous escort card table or fun food station. Trust your instincts and believe in your vision. And get a wedding planner. For real. Jeannie Smith, our planner and coordinator (AshBy Wedding & Event Planning), knew what vendors would be appropriate for what we wanted and, more importantly, knew the vendors that would be willing to trek out into the wilds of Kentucky.”This originally appeared in the Spring/Summer 2019 issue of Louisville Bride.

5-year-old brings cheer to neighbors with flower deliveries - The Bellingham Herald

This year, the deliveries expanded a little more, to the Parkers' whole block and some neighbors on the next block in the Camden County enclave of mid-century homes. The timing of the poinsettia gifts, just a few days after Thanksgiving, is deliberate. First, Jeff gets great Black Friday deals on the flowers. Also, it builds Lilly's excitement for the holidays. "It's the kickoff to her of the holiday season," Lynn said. "Everything is really centered around making this part of her holidays." There's a routine to Lilly's deliveries, all made pulling a little red wagon topped with a wood panel to keep the poinsettias steady. "She doesn't care how cold it is. She says, 'Let's go! Let's go!'" Lynn said. "She runs up, puts the card down, and puts the poinsettia on top of it," Jeff said. In most cases, neighbors aren't home at the time of Lilly's visits, so they return to a surprise gift. One recipient posted on a Facebook community page for Stratford residents, wondering if the poinsettia plant was left by mistake: "My husband just came home from work to a poinsettia on our porch with a Christmas card that only has the name Lillian inside. I'm thinking this got dropped off to the wrong house." That's when Lynn jumped in to explain Lilly's tradition. "That is the greatest and sweetest tradition!" another neighbor replied. "Maybe there's a Christmas elf in Stratford," read one of many more comments thanking Lilly for the delivery. Lynn read the comments to her daughter, who she said doesn't look for any recognition or reward for her efforts. "She is just a very loving, giving child," she said of Lilly, who enjoys crafts, dance class and going for walks in the neighborhood where she's quickly becoming a celebri... https://www.bellinghamherald.com/news/business/national-business/article222521970.html

F.C. Florist Sends Bouquets to Congresswomen Targeted by Trump - Falls Church News Press

Born in the Soviet Union-controlled Uzbekistan, Rabinovich and her family traversed through multiple countries before finally getting clearance to come to the U.S. She would grow up in the New Jersey/New York area, earning her citizenship by the time she was 16 and would later go on to get her degree in visual merchandising and interior design. AdvertisementsHer first job was working in a flower shop, an occupation that was always seen as a fallback for Rabinovich whenever she was in between gigs. She later realized she enjoyed working in flower shops more than any other job and started her own business out of her apartment in Arlington. Rabinovich wound up purchasing Galleria Florist in July 2015 when searching for a production space to operate out of, and last December she became an owner of Nosegay Flowers in Washington, D.C. — a former employer of hers.She re-emphasized that the flowers were merely a show of goodwill, but did add a general message to all Americans that, “The U.S. is a melting pot. It stands for inclusivity, not exclusivity. That’s what’s going to keep us going; diversity and the knowledge our immigrants bring to the country.”Share this:Comments comments... https://fcnp.com/2019/07/31/f-c-florist-sends-bouquets-to-congresswomen-targeted-by-trump/
