Lemonade

Hi there, Reader:

Don't you love it when you wake up in the morning and read something that you enjoy reading. That you can apply to your life. What can I do different in business, in life to make my life better. Normally I would tell you attend your local church, now I know that sounds silly or ridiculous and not related to work, the truth is when I became saved I began to see business in a different way. The Billy Graham Association has wonderful steps you can take for salvation!

Now you are wondering why would I start this blog with the titled it Lemonade. The one thing this organization taught me, is true salvation exist. Reading this morning business "Peak Performance" by Tony Robins reminded me of my own thoughts about "Lemonade". Why do I have the lemonade song on my website? Is it attracting sales or sending them away?

Here are quotes from what I read:

"Master skill managing promises. Always follow through on any promises. Always follow through on any promise to add value.

When a someone makes a request, you have five choices of action:

1. Accept it and act on it. Make a promise and deliver it or on time.
2. Ask for clarity. On content or timeline.
3. Negotiate/Make a counter-proposal.
4. Reject it.
5. Never ignore it. The breaks the value chain and burns the client, the company and your teammates. "

Value, Character, Respect all of those are important in life and to me the Lemonade song on the website explains allot. It is the relationship people have with one another. I can talk about the business of love, however until you know it, experience it, respect it will, will you not come to understand it. Love is the most difficult thing you can experience in life and the greatest blessing. The word teachings both. The blessings and the responsibility. I am not pushing my beliefs on you, nor do I want to force you to believe what I believe. What I believe is that in life, we are given a bunch of lemons. We can make lemonade with them, or just let them rot.

The truth is my love for what I do in life gets me through all those lemon moments in life. Lemons come in many forms in event planning. It can be cake form. It can be in tea. Now beverages come in all forms of lemon added. It can be in making a difficult events into something beautiful. It can be helping a couple, person, business, plan an event within their budget. It can be designing an over the top budget for someone who money is no object. It is making the best out of a situation. And having the belief that it will all be as God planned it. Having the integrity to take the punches life has given you, and the dignity to not hit back to see what God will do with it.

What is your lemon in life?

Sofitel Bora Bora Private Island

The main hotel at Sofitel Bora Bora Private Island has excellent beds in bungalows right on the beach. A neighboring private island, part of the same resort, feels very secluded, with beautiful terraced pathways climbing to a hilltop where you can indulge in a sunset cocktail. If you and your love are afternoon sun worshipers, the private island is a better bet, as the main island loses sun behind the high mountain peaks in the later hours. Private island guests have regular access to the main island for all amenities. Keep an eye on the Sofitel, which has plans to further develop the private island hilltop with a pool and to modernize the interior design of its overwater bungalows on the main island. These folks are on island time, but you should be too. It's all part of the charm.

Wedding Colors

A brides wedding colors...

Flower choices....

Money spent....

Personality....

Grooms looks...

How she acts in bride planning mode...

Are all judge by her family, friends, peers, co-workers. Is it fair, is it right only God knows the true answer? What type of marriage she will have who knows, it is how they as a couple work through issues.

Wedding colors are a description of personality, if this was a 100% true than we would be able to control the person. Then there would be no self will and we would all live impressed lives.

Pink and Blue

The flower of babies, Gerber daisies are one of my favorite flowers to encourage a bride to put in her boutique. If for no other reason it by name brings to the parents the thought of future and stops some of the pressure on the bride.  It is the colors that are used through a lifetime for renewal, hope, future.

To some they are what artist use in pastels, to other they are bright and a burst of color. My favorite is knowing that in the classic form they are representative of the colors of male and female.  Gerber daisies are one of those flowers that have many bright colors and do not have to be dies the color you desire.

However, other flowers in there natural beauty can be placed in a boutique.

As you can see blue and pink make beautiful boutiques with Hortensia. The Pom Pom create a fullness to the boutique. Roses gentle as can be are added, beware, they do have thorns.

This boutique is for the more tropical minded bride. Still keeping the pink and blue theme but it has stars and orchids. The beauty speakers for itself. 

As a bride trying to make a statement think about what it is you want to say and then choose your colors. There was a time when color was not allowed in the wedding boutique. White was the only color of choice.

Have fun choosing and looking up what colors mean, bright or pastels the choice is yours. That is one that it should be all about you! Like the dress you wear! Making you the individual and the Bride for a day, the Grooms Bride for a lifetime. 

One of my favorite things to Sonia to look at mature and see how colors look. The color wheels is good, but nature reflects perfection not created by man. 

Perfection!  I love how cheery blossoms look against the blue sky. One of my favorite flowers and I love how my Japanese florist arranges them.

1980's Weddings

1980's Weddings

FACTS about this decade.   Population: 226,546,000  Unemployed in 1980:  National Debt: 1980 - $914,000,000,000  National Debt:  1986 - $2,000,000,000,000  Average salary: $15,757  Life Expectancy: Male 69.9  Female 77.6  Minimum Wage:  $3.10  BMW was $12,000; Mercedes 280 E was $14,800  Attendance:  Movies 20 million/week   Daily 100 - Interactive quotes from the 80s

The 1980s became the Me! Me! Me! generation of status seekers.   During the 1980s, hostile takeovers, leveraged buyouts, and mega-mergers spawned a new breed of billionaire.  Donald Trump, Leona Helmsley, and Ivan Boesky iconed the meteoric rise and fall of the rich and famous.  If you've got it, flaunt it and You can have it all! were watchwords.   Forbes' list of 400 richest people became more important than its 500 largest companies.  Binge buying and credit became a way of life and 'Shop Til you Drop' was the watchword.  Labels were everything, even (or especially) for our children.  Tom Wolfe dubbed the baby-boomers as the 'splurge generation.'  Video games, aerobics, minivans, camcorders, and talk shows became part of our lives.   The decade began with double-digit inflation, Reagan declared a war on drugs, Kermit didn't find it easy to be green, hospital costs rose, we lost many, many of our finest talents to AIDS which before the decade ended spread to black and Hispanic women, and  unemployment rose.  On the bright side, the US Constitution had its 200th birthday, Gone with the Wind turned 50,  ET phoned home, and in 1989 Americans gave $115,000,000,000 to charity.  And, Internationally, at the very end of the decade the Berlin Wall was removed - making great changes for the decade to come!   At the turn of the decade, many were happy to leave the spendthrift 80s for the 90s, although some thought the eighties TOTALLY AWESOME.

The 1980's the generation known for "Me" was about themselves?  Not believing that this was in tiredly true. 

  They were thought to be trying to find their own individuality. 

 Their need was to make their way in life.  The pervious generations were the ideals of the 50's the freedom of the 60's the dance era of the 70's the 80's used computers to print invitation.        Computers became part of education,                 Creativity, was a part, the Prince Charming arrived on a white horse, to take his bride away.  The world witnessed a Royal wedding.  Patterns were more available and people planned both home formal and informal weddings. 

  

                                                                       It was a time of celebration. 

         There were new magazines for brides to use as reference.

                                                                                                                                                 The world saw weddings from other Cultures,   Princess from other nations. The American way changes as we become educated on the other cultures, race, religion. Computers played a big part the beginning of Internet let people research their weddings and see how different marriages operate.
