Singing in the Rain Photo Shoot

Every bride worries about rain on her wedding day....and everyone says it brings good luck.  Well, we decided to create our own rainy day luck for this photo shoot. I call it Singing in the Rain, complete with our own version of raindrops!

I've even included the sketches of what I sent to the team...I think we got pretty close!

Valentine's Recap.....a good pair of shoes

We love to celebrate LOVE!  So we spent part of the day on Valentine's Day playing cupid, running around to some of our fave venues dropping off cupcakes made by The Makery.  So many of the hotels were decked out in tons of fab red flowers.  All of them said they were booked solid at the restaurants.  At the Brown Palace Hotel we saw so many couples having afternoon tea, the concierge informed us that it's the only time of year where you see so many men enjoying high tea.

I loved thinking of all the couples getting all dressed up, and heading out on the town. A few important questions were popped last night I'm sure....a very popular day for proposals.

I think I would have to pull out some Luichiny shoes jut for that special night! They've got  a hidden heart on the bottom!

This one is the Gettin' Hitched Sandal...how appropriate!
 
So...I would love to have gotten dressed up and hit the town with all of you, but I love our family tradition too.  A nice night at home with all 3 of my boys and a wonderful dinner of spaghetti and heart shaped meatballs.  Maybe I'll pull out those Luichiny's next year? Hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day, we'd love to hear how you spent your night!
