Southern Weddings

Monthly Archives: February 2009

We work in the wedding business.  We produce a magazine centered around couples finding each other and declaring to spend the rest of their lives together through marriage.  We tell a couple’s love story each day– from the butterflies on the first meeting to the proposal and then the wedding details.  Love is in the air around here!  Our entire staff wishes you a very wonderful Valentine’s weekend.  May you spend it with a mate, friends, parents, fiance, husband or even your pet.

From Laura: Here’s to a fabulous Valentine’s Day to all! My Valentines Day plans include the typical single lady activities. You know…girlfriends, wine, a movie and a mega cup cake from {Harris Teeter Bakery}. And then there is cozy time with my orange cat, Tiger Lily. Happy Valentine’s Day!

From Lara: I am writing this after I read Laura’s post.  Just want to say how lovely she is.  She brightens my day.  Laura, will you be my Valentine?  And Abbykittypants wants to ask Tiger Lily if she will be her Valentine, too.  Kirstin, by the time you read this, I will be in Vegas prepping the slot machines for you.  I will find the winning penny slot machine, and we will win a million…  pennies. ; )  Katie and Lindsey, we are so blessed to have you in this little family of ours.  I hope each of you experience as much love as you give to others on Valentine’s Day i.e. a LOT!  Where will I be tomorrow night?  With Ari at Tao at the Venetian– one of my fave restaurants/clubs in Vegas. (ps- just looked at their website and Frederick’s of Hollywood is having a fashion show there that night.  Oh geez!)  Ari and I were married in Vegas almost three years ago, so it’s a sentimental city for us.  Happy Valentine’s Day to all of our wonderful readers and blog friends!  Wishing you boundless love, overflowing joy and lots of chocolate this weekend!

From Kirstin: Hope you all have a wonderful Valentine’s Day! I will be spending my Valentine’s Day with my sweeties, Luke and London, at home just relaxing and having a wonderful home cooked meal before I jet off to Vegas on Sunday. Wishing you all the best on Valentine’s Day whether you have a special someone or not definitely make sure to enjoy yourself and indulge on some yummy sweets!

From Lindsey: I hope everyone has a love-filled Valentine’s Day! For the second year in a row, I will have a webcam date with my amazing boyfriend before spending the evening celebrating with my girlfriends. Long distance love is tough, but rewarding! I’m so lucky to have thoughtful and loving people in my life. I hope you are equally blessed!

From Kristi: Just wanted to say, Happy Valentine’s Day to y’all.  May you all have a wonderful and relaxing day and even enjoy a sweet with your sweetie.

From Katie: Happy Valentine’s Day to you and your loved ones! I’ll be using Valentine’s Day as an excuse to spend the entire day with Ryan (which definitely doesn’t happen often enough). Every year we usually cook something delicious for dinner and finish up with yummy chocolate fondue for dessert. Ryan recommends ditching the fruit and simply eating it by the spoonful :). Hope your Valentine’s Day includes lots of relaxing quality time with the ones you love!

The {Laura Hooper Calligraphy Contest} is one of my favorites, and I am very excited to share our winner today.  {Laura Hooper Calligraphy} has a wonderful line of tote bags with fabulous map designs– the perfect item for a bride or a group of bridesmaids.  With Laura Hooper giving us a free map design and 10 totes for one lucky winner, we knew we had to ask readers to share something very special.  We asked readers to share a favorite memory with a bridesmaid. I’ll let Patra, our winner, (chosen at random), tell you her story…

Congrats to Patra and her bridesmaid Shannon!  Patra, please email me at {laura_e at iloveswmag dot com} with your contact information, and I will put you in touch with Laura Hooper.  For those who didn’t win, make sure to check out the {Colin Cowie} giveaway and look out for more exciting contest posts to come.  Also, check out {Laura Hooper Calligraphy} and look into those awesome totes!
