Camp Wedding Retreat at Camp Wandewega

In September, I was honored to be asked to speak by Sarah and Andrea from Cherry Berry Events at Camp Wedding at the Camp Wandewega, located in Wisconsin. This was their inaugural wedding retreat and I was looking forward to meeting some new friends in the wedding industry. I attend a couple of event conferences a year and I was intrigued by the concept of Camp Wedding, with wedding professionals being in a camp environment.

Pantone Color of the Year announced for 2013

Pantone Color of the Year announced for 2013

We were tickled, um, GREEN, when Pantone announced their color of 2013 as Emerald Green. I love the color green and am so excited to see this appear in Chicago weddings and all things fashion, weddings, beauty and home. So today I pay homage to Emerald Green with some great finds!
