Sorta kinda? Yeah. Because we sorta mostly took pics with our iPhones. And kinda cause we snapped a bad photo of the booth with our point and shoot. For real, the iPhone could have done a better job than that camera. And we don’t even have the new iPhones yet. Really should have brought the big camera. I’m soooooo kicking myself today for not taking it. In my defense: we were sleep deprived, melted by heat and filled to 99.9% capacity in our vehicles. When it came to the decision to pack the big camera (and we’re talking, way last minute after everything else was done) all I could think was “I have nowhere to put it and nowhere to keep it during the show.” As it turns out, I’m SUPER bummed I didn’t go to extremes and just bring the big camera. Once everything was set up I so wanted to take lots of detail pictures of the booth. Photographer fail. Forgive me. It won’t happen next time. :)
Anyway! This weekend = crazy crazy insane. We had a wonderful time shooting Chelsea and Steven’s wedding on Saturday – then right after they hooked it to the airport for a fabulous honeymoon in Ireland, we jetted to Grapevine to load in for the Star Telegram Bridal Show. One of our amazing Bella Pop brides Becky helped us out. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! We love you and we are so grateful you were there for us. XOXO. After the first set up the three of us finally crashed and enjoyed dinner at California Pizza Kitchen and it totally made my day that they put the candied walnuts back into their signature Waldorf Chicken Salad. Really. I was smiling the whole time. After dinner it was: rinse. wash. repeat.
The next day rock and roll time was at 5:00 am (again!) and sadly I realized it was 83 degrees even at 5:30 in the morning! We arrived bright and early to finish setting up the booth and our bella Becky showed up looking super cute with a big box of doughnuts to boot. Love that girl! The show was great: we met a ton of super cool couples. And despite the 115 degree heat index and a very uncool load out we finally ate dinner. One bubble bath and chocolate pie later… I crashed. For 10+ hours straight. Yeah, that’s how we roll.
