Cori and Paul are perfect examples of perseverance, commitment and hope. They have had quite a journey getting them to this point today..and this wedding was truly a celebration of the family that had already started several years ago. Cori and Paul have a darling daughter Isabelle who truly lights up the room. While I know Cori and Paul share many things Isabelle, or “Belly” is truly the greatest of all of these things. I felt so emotional this day because the relationship between Cori and Belly is just priceless. Jason and I always laugh when we talk to our 5 year old Kyla about our wedding, because she MAJORLY gets her feelings hurt every time we bring it up..because she says we “didnt invite her” to our wedding. No matter how much we reason with her about how she wasnt even born, she still gets a bit sassy. We are looking forward to renewing our vows in 3 years so we can have another mini wedding for her to be part of:)
Isabelle was so proud to be part of this day..and for all of you who were there, could testify that Isabelle had the “model walk” down PERFECT as she strutted down the aisle. Cori just makes me feel like a million bucks when I am around her. She was always ahead of me in school back in the day, so you imagine how much I looked up to her..and now to be part of her life and to feel so respected and welcomed….it just makes me melt . We loved every minute of this wedding..and are so grateful for her sweetness and Pauls sense of humor…we wish you guys all.the.love.in.the.world. XOXO.
There are alot of great things about moving..but perhaps one of the best of these is……new neighbors. Us Maxwells have moved homes about 11 times in the last 7 years..but this was our first time moving into a retail location for our business. Downtown Willow Glen is perhaps one of the greatest places on earth..lets just call it Pleasantville. The people are incredible, the buildings are historical…the type of place where it almost seems like there is music playing in the bushes like at Disneyland. Its that awesome. Our studio/store Betroth is located inside an old movie theater building downtown..and we happened to be moving in the same time as a Sassy little Salon called “Mesh” . We are neighbors:) And we love it. It has been so great getting to know the owner Erin throughout the process..and to see their business do so well from the minute their doors opened. The girls over there have been so wonderful to us..coming over daily to buy our accessories…sending over last minute girls going to prom..prospective brides..you name it..We are so grateful for them and for being cheerleaders for us:) While I have so many amazing hair dresser friends..I needed to experience this salon!! It was so great to sit and get my hair done by the oh-so-fab Wendy Tai over there..Im convinced that there is nothing better sitting in a cute salon..having someone play with your hair..getting to catch up on magazines..and listen to “salon chatter”. If anyone is in the Willow Glen area and looking for a little spruce..check it out..you will be in LOVE!
You can see our store names on the Garden Theater sign…Eeeeh! So exciting!!
I met Asal at our ladies night out a few weeks ago..I couldnt tell what I noticed first..her radiant prego glow, her bright blue sequined hat, or her enormously awesome belly. I instantly found myself in a happy place rubbing my hands on her belly and swaying back and forth as we exchanged hello’s…..(its a mama thing). We began to chat about her
