The Wedding Industry

Today while chatting with my girls we began discussing the wedding industry. The hoopla and money associate with a wedding. During this conversation I stated that how happy I am I didn’t stick with the original budget we had for our wedding. How I would be mad if I had spent that much now that I am married. Some times I feel like I am anti-weddings. It might be from being on The Knot (TK) since this past July. Or seeing couples, especially the women, put so much work, time and focus into their wedding and its over in a snap! Some spend a year or more planning their wedding.

My Favorite Celeb Couple

I am addicted to reading current celebrity news online. One of my favorite sites is . Currently, well actually for a long time now, my favorite celebrity couple is Jay Z and Beyonce. Or should I say, Mr. & Mrs Carter! They are both at the top of the music game, stylish and seem to be pretty cool people. Plus I got to love any woman who is consistently fly and drop hot songs! I came across pictures of their new home they started building 6 months ago in, Scarsdale, NY the same city they filed their marriage license in. Check the pics out.
