Pearls of Wisdom: Wisdom is the sharing of wise experiences and knowledge, but a lot of it is common sense. The difference is how we apply this common sense – we all have the ability to keep going even when we face challenges in our lives – basically it comes down to your attitude. We can have a positive attitude towards life, or a negative attitude. We can focus on the good or we can focus on the bad. Keeping a positive mental attitude is one of the keys to success. The choice is always up to you!

What’s the best advice you can give to a couple when planning their wedding: The best advice I can give a couple would be to stick it out through all of the frustrations that pop up while while planning a wedding. It goes by quick, so make sure you take the time to enjoy the entire experience. If you pick the right vendors to work with, then you have very little to worry about. Also, remember that it is all about YOU and nobody else!
