My beautiful cousin Marianne is getting married next month! Today was her final dress fitting at Danelle’s Bridal. Wow! What a fantastic dress! It was my first time seeing it, I was having a hard time visualizing it from Marianne’s description so this was exciting. And she looked so pretty! I can’t be at Marianne’s wedding because I’ll be shooting Bobbi and Sean‘s big event that day, but I’ll be doing a “day after” shoot with Marianne and Mel and I can’t wait. I’ll blog those pictures too!

Marianne is not just beautiful, she’s smart as a whip, accomplished and successful. We’re all very proud of her and happy as can be for her and Mel. Love you sweetie!

She’s going to be a gorgeous bride!

Danelle’s Bridal is awesome! I couldn’t get enough of the beautiful gowns and accessories there, and the white glove service. I highly recommend it if you’re gown shopping!

Okay, this dog has absolutely nothing to do with Marianne’s wedding but I had to blog his funny face! His name is Hershey, and he’s one of the house dogs at Best Foreign Used Auto Parts over on the west side. Pat and I were looking for a hubcap for our Volvo and this was our welcoming committee.

A face only a mother could love! This is Hershey’s buddy Omar. There was another funny dog there named Irwin but he was too much of a spaz, I couldn’t get a good shot of him. Anyone who has goofy dogs like this is all right in my book.
