Breaking from the Fast Lane: Art in Dusseldorf

Wedding Plans


Planning a wedding, like so many others, is something that only happens once or twice in a mother's life. This was the first one that I had been put in charge of, and I must admit that it was as stressful as I had heard. Since I wanted everything to be just perfect for my little girl, I put a great deal of effort into my selections.
