As unbelievable as it is, Rouge has already come and gone - we can't believe it's over! I kept saying that it seemed like only yesterday that Amy from Splendid Events was chatting to us at the bakery about the vague idea that was to become Rouge - Ottawa's Ultimate Bachelorette Party! It was awesome to meet so many of you; and it was an even better surprise to find out that many of you had heard of us before and were excited to hear we do weddings as well! It was a fun evening, and as always, it was such a pleasure to see people we love (Kate from Flights of Fancy, I'm lookin' at you!). Be sure to check this out next year - I know a lot of you aren't even getting married, and were just there for a night out!! So glad to see there were so many people out supporting the ACO and promoting education of living with, or being effected by, AIDS/HIV.
On Sunday, Kat from Blumenstudio had her soft opening of her new cafe/flower shop located on Parkdale Ave. We are now going to be wholesaling to Kat, which we are so excited about - I am in love with her unique flower arrangements; everything is so quirky and one-of-a-kind... she really has a special eye! Make sure you stop in and say hi, check out the place, and grab a drink & a treat!
Then on Monday, Mandi and I had the pleasure of heading down to Rogers Television for a spot on a daytime show called Revivelife. This was my first time on TV so please take that into consideration... I felt myself saying sentences that didn't seem to make sense at the time, but my parents assured me it went well (and that's all that matters!). The people at Rogers were so lovely, and made us feel so welcome. On top of that, we got to see Krista (of Wed By Hand fame) and Dana & Becky from With Love Bridal Boutique - 3 lovely ladies that are always a joy to see! It was also the first time meeting Stacey of Marry Me Productions; we actually had delivered a cake to one of her weddings back in the summer (it was the purple and fuschia cake that went to the National Art Gallery), but hadn't met before yesterday! One of the best parts of this job is meeting so many amazing people... we thrive on it. Anyway - with all that said, see the video below for our TV spot yesterday!
I have one more wedding consultation on Thursday night before I head off for a long weekend. Richard and I are taking off to Burlington, Vermont for a relaxing couple of days to take a breather from the craziness that has been life for the past 3 months. (We've had non-stop consultations and events since the beginning of January!! It's so exciting, and we're so happy about it - I just need a l'il break) That being said, please note that if you do e-mail me between Thursday, March 31st and Sunday, April 3rd, you will not hear back from me until Monday, April 4th. Hold tight, I will get back to you!!
Thanks for reading, and have a lovely week! Hang in there, Spring is seriously right around the corner... Knock on wood!!!
Take care!
xoxo
Miss Kate
