Tomorrow morning, I'm lucky enough to get to host another kindhearted giveaway to a member of Team Practical that needs a little extra spring in their step, some extra wind in their sails. But before I do, I wanted to tell you about a tiny miracle.
When Amy gave away her beautiful traditional wedding dress, both she and I had a very strong feeling that the dress should go to Chris. We were not sure why, but we went with our gut. Chris was over-the-moon excited - it was the dress she'd always dreamed of, and now she could afford it. But here is where the miracle comes - she sent Amy her address so she could mail the dress, and turned out they lived just a few miles away from each other. A few miles. So they handed off the dress in person and ended up talking for two and a half hours. They send their love, collectively, to you.
In times like these, the fact that kindness brings tiny miracles? That is enough for me.
XO, Team Practical, XO





























































That is too cool. It’s amazing how the goodness in the world cames out in interesting ways!

Wow!! What a small bridal blog world we live in. :) I carry a bag that has my photog’s logo and another bride to be recognized me from my photogs blog posts about our wedding!! Oh, and when my photogs showed up with an assistant, she stared at me with shrewd eye before asking if I was the Starry-Eyed Barefoot bride because she stalked MY blog!?! Very small world! :)
