This summer my dear friend Sami got married…2 days ago to be exact. It is always so special when someone you love marries someone you adore and respect and you are invited to participate in their lives as they prepare for the big event.

It has been ages since i posted on my blog but i am back and am dedicating this to Sami and her enormously amazing event.

In June, i had the honor of hosting a garden party in my back yard from Sami and her close girlfriends. With Stacey, Heather and Kaatje’s help we transformed the weed patch (my back yard) into a beautiful oasis of tea cakes, cucumber sandwiches and lots of champagne.

2 weeks later Sami and Kevin were married in their beautiful backyard. i have never weeped at a wedding but this one caught me in the right mood and i watched most of the ceremony through a curtain of tears and eyelashes.

Kaatje, Stacey and I got to decorate the cakes! Sami set us up in the basement which at first i thought was weird but as more and more people arrived and it got crazier upstairs i was so relieved to be hidden in our secret den. Sami is a smart cookie. We decorated 8 cheesecakes with flowers and blue glaze :) it was GREAT!

so the night was spent dancing under the stars and twinkle lights laughing and celebrating with friends and family. What a HOOT!
