One size fits all??

One of the things most bridal stores will probably give you a standard piece of advise. Order a size larger than you think you will need because wedding dresses run small. But somehow, I dont't think this bride listened ...or even cared for that matter. Another fashion don't.

Beyonce's Bling

Apparently, I was the last to know that Beyonce is sporting her wedding ring around town.. All I can say is wooooowwwwww!!

New trend?...I hope not!

Ok so you know I am all for creativity & saving money on your wedding but see.... this really is over the top!! This wedding took ghettofabness to another level. Please note the airbrushed word "wifey" on the brides dress, the flowers girls dress that said "just like mama", and on the family picture, check out the guy whos standing on top of the car, his t-shirt reads "they met at my crib". yeahhhh its that bad. :-)

ok one more love song

So since I'm in the lovey dovey mood :-)- I had to hit you all with another beautiful love song that I'm sure was one of the most requested wedding songs of 2008.

Eric Benet & his daughter India sings You're the only one- Enjoy!

love music=soul music

Hey yall isn't it amazing, that once you find that forever man or woman, you listen to love songs with a different ear. This was always a favorite of mine but now its like, YEAHHHHHH.....lol! Here's Contentment by Kindred The Family Soul...ENJOY!




P.S. Props go to daHBIC aka Joe for creating such a beautiful video

Should Marriage Be About Love or Business?

Hey folks - i came across this post at a ning site that i belong too. You know I had a lot to say after reading it. But what do you think?

"I was recently conversing with a business associate who POPPED THE QUESTION to me. That's not the shocking part of the story. I have known her for about 5 months. We are social friends. We talk politics and money. Nothing to heavy. I don't even know her birthday.
She tells me, word for word, "Let's talk a life long chance (lol) we are both successful, we both have a minds togther, we should get married." I laughed and she didn't, she continues to say, "we will make some smart and beautiful children. We can date if you like but i know i want children and a successful husband. I never wanted love and thats how i made it so far. This can be a business transaction, legal binded by contract on top of a marriage vows. If we promise not to let "love for each other get involved", I think it will last forever."
What the _____ was she thinking. She talks about it all the time and she even told me we can write our own vows that wouldn't include love and romance. Today I told her NO, but she told me she is going to the next Successful Black Man she can fine. Am I a chump for not believing that the reason marriages are failling more these days because they are about love. She said her mother told her that she married her father for political reason and they are still together. Help!!!
