Thanksgiving Message

We are so blessed.

Whatever our postition in life, if we are in a position to be thinking about a wedding that includes all the people who have been special in our lives, we have a lot to be thankful for.

I remember a bride several years ago who didn't seem to get this. No doubt she was wrapped up in the stress of the planning process and saw only all the demands that it put on her. It was understandable, but sad. I remember bringing up the question of the kinds of wedding favors she wanted to use to develop her decor and express her gratitude to those who had stood by her and her future husband over the years. But to her favors were nothing more than trinkets. Little more than stocking stuffers...

Sad.

The point of wedding favors is the same as the point of Thanksgiving. It is an opportunity to acknowledge all that has been done on our behalf - all that we have to be thankful for.

And we do have a lot to be thankful for.



Happy Thanksgiving!
