June 27th & 28th – Come down to Shoebilee at the All About Weddings Store

This weekend my friends, Gayle and Jim O’Donell, will be having a Big Bridal Shoe Sale at their store in Tukwila, All About Weddings! I have known them since they opened their first store in Bellevue many years ago.  What a fun grand opening it was,  I remember attending it with my daughter Marie, who was 7 or 8 at the time.  Marie was nice enough to inform the owner of Sleep Country USA that she did not like my recently purchased mattress from their store.  Ah, if I could have only transported myself to . . . . . anywhere at that moment.  But, the owner did not miss a beat.  She ask why Marie did not like the mattress, to which Marie quickly responded “Because it is not bouncy when I jump on it!” (I wanted to look at my watch and state “Oh my!  Look at the time! We better get going home. . . . “)  The owner was kind enough not to punch me, she simply stated “that is because your Daddy bought a good mattress!” Bless her heart.

And bless Gayle and Jim for not laughing me out of their lives:)  I love their excitement for Weddings and business in general.  So if you have not got your shoes yet, or are looking for do-it-yourself wedding invitations, and a store full of Wedding ideas – then this is your moment to graze, chat, and take a couple moments to meet them!

I will be there on Saturday from 10-4pm with albums in tow and great photographic ideas for your wedding. For the first 50 Brides-to-be I will be giving out gift certificates for a free Engagement setting!
