Welcome to the Inaugural Post of My "Wedding Woods" Blog

Posted by Tricia Spencer Aug 28, 2009

Hello! My name is Tricia, and I am Suite101's Wedding Planning Feature Writer.

Getting married is a time of enchantment, and here in the Wedding Woods, we will explore traditional, historical and imaginative wedding ideas. A forest is filled with a bounty of beautiful trees, flowers and woodland creatures, and its diversity is its greatest treasure. Diversity also reigns supreme in the Wedding Woods where there will be a cornucopia of wedding musings, delights and possibilites.

Here in my Wedding Woods blog, I will discuss the wonderful world of weddings, answer any questions you may have to the best of my ability and share some of the treasures from my personal wedding memorabilia collection.

In the years following my own wedding, I found myself deeply enmeshed in the wedding experience--from owning and operating wedding limousines to creating and marketing my own line of whimisical wedding accessories, collectively called "For Just a Bit of Wedding Wit." Now my goal is to help you have the wedding you deserve by sharing insights, imagination and solutions.

If you have questions about the information provided in any of my wedding articles, this is the place to ask them. From bridal arches to decorative parasols to wedding insurance, and all other wedding-planning ideas in between, I hope you find something here to help make your wedding day as memorable and as glorious as you've always dreamed it would be.

A few of my favorite photos from my own wedding are below. The words written in gold script on the photo with the tree are: "...and as this tree shall grow fuller and stronger, so shall we..." We recited those words in unison as part of our ceremony after we'd watered the 25 baby trees gathered at the altar. We each watered the 12 trees on our respective side then came together for our special tree. After the wedding, we gave the other 24 trees to friends and family, and because so many of our guests had to travel to share in our wedding day, the trees ended up being planted in 7 different states. Oh, the memories....

Thank you for visiting the Weddng Woods! I hope you visit often.
