The Midwest Wedding Crashers: 2016 Wedding Show Season
Photos by Catherine Rhodes Aside from Pinterest and magazines, where else do you look for ideas when planning your big day? Wedding shows are a great place to get ideas and deals. We have been to more than 10 wedding shows in the past year, but this was our first at a local winery. […]
A Bipartisan Look Forward

Carolyn Paris
Photo by Anthony Jinson By far, being in nature is the environment that gives Carolyn the most strength and inspiration. She experiences a richer, deeper, grounded presence. Traveling to Patagonia, Argentina this year was at the top on her list for beautiful, inspiring travels. She took four adventurous warrior-women with her for two weeks. The highlight of […]
