Great job, Ariel! It was a thrill to hear Joyce Taylor call me a "local journalist!" I sat on a panel at an event she helped moderate, and the woman is a true pro. You look great on grainy YouTube–I'm sure you looked even better on TV!
I hope it was fun and that women got inspired to do their own thang–whether it's high-production musical wedding, or o-so-cazh BBQ.

oh this makes me so happy!! I've been trying to fit into this cookie cutter image of a bride and pretty much had a dressing room melt down yesterday afternoon. I literally feel claustrophobic and weighed down in those huge beaded, sequince wedding gowns! No longer will I force myself to be bunched up, pushed in, and pulled up .. I'm going to get something that's more me! thank you ariel!
