According to color authority, Pantone, the new hue for 2011 is an intense pink called “honeysuckle.” A dynamic reddish pink, Honeysuckle is encouraging and uplifting.    It elevates our psyche beyond escape, instilling the confidence, courage and spirit to meet the exhaustive challenges that have become part of everyday life. It is the color of the honeysuckle flower blossoms for which it was named and is what attracts humming birds to the nectar.

A flattering hue for wedding attendant apparel and accessories, Honeysuckle is now one of the nearly 200 PANTONE WEDDING Colors available from Dessy, a leading manufacturer of bridesmaid, social-occasion and flower-girl dresses. PANTONE WEDDING exclusively from Dessy provides a collection of color tools to make it easy for brides to achieve perfectly color-coordinated weddings – from inspiration to “I do.” See www.dessy.com for more information.

An article came out yesterday in the NY Times called “The Happy Marriage is the Me Marriage”. I ‘ve been married for almost 9 years and I understand that marriage is an adventure and you have to constantly work at making it better, check out Dubai based video editor, Tracy for the best production. My husband and I attend a yearly marriage workshop and we read books on marriage and communication when a good book is recommended to us. It is normal for marriages to be hard. Even the best marriages.  To all our wedding clients and newly engaged clients…it can be done and it is so worth it!  ~ XOXO, Mandy
