What a wedding story

I’ve been out of commission for a while, thanks to a now 2-month-old cutie pie named Michael, but have been keeping an eye out for good wedding posts. And while this one doesn’t have much to do with decorations, I love the story, and darn it, I really hope this couple wins.

8/8/08 Wedding Giveaway


I came across this contest while doing my early morning (as in 11:40 a.m., heheh) surfing of sites. I don’t know about you, but the offer of free anything rocks. But a free wedding? You could spend all your money on your honeymoon and your future home! How great would that be?

Anyway, its not just any wedding of course. The contest is sponsored by TheKnot and Eight O’Clock Coffee (never heard of ’em) and is for a wedding in Southhampton, NY on that auspicious date (which falls on a Friday) with a reception for up to 100 guests and decorated by (apparently) celebrity decorator Evette Rios.

I don’t know if a Southern California girl like myself would want a wedding in Southhampton, but hey — I’m just the messenger. Catch is the contest ends next weekend on May 31 and you have to write an essay about why you should win this contest. Oh, and you can only enter once. Anyway, if anyone from this site wins the contest — let me know! I’d love to hear about it.
