wedding belles.

Tis the season...
Most of the weekends at the salon are steadily filling up with bridal party appointments.
It seems like at least once or twice a week, another lovely girl checks out at the front desk, and her stylist congratulates her on her recent engagement... or she books her last highlight before the Special Event Stylings for her big day. All of these girls with glistening eyes and glowing faces...
They come in all shapes... all sizes... all varieties of kinds of beauty... and every single one of them has a man who thinks she's the most beautiful woman alive. Every one of them has some romantic story and a ring of varying shapes and sizes and carats and colors gleaming from their left hand. Every one of them has a man who wants them to have their last name... who wants to do life with them, beyond a shadow of a doubt. This is the woman that someone cannot and will not be without.

And as overwhelming as things can be...
As crazy and hectic as the planning may become...
As stressed out as she might be...
It's all really quite beautiful and exciting.
You can see it in her eyes.
You can see it on her face.
Rosy cheeks. Every one of them.

They are adored women.

there is so much I want to accomplish and achieve. So much I want to see and learn to be.
But, I've always wanted this.
And I sometimes find myself tearing up wondering what it's like...
Wondering when that will be me?
