June Brides, Summer Weddings & Gift Ideas...

"You don't marry someone you can live with... you marry the person you cannot live without." ~Unknown

Ahhh Weddings...what little girl doesn't dream of being a bride? Since childhood most little girls dream of a fairy tale wedding. And to be a June bride, well...what more could a girl hope for. Did you ever wonder where the saying "June Bride" came from? Well, it's not as romantic as you might think. Many, many, many years ago, when indoor plumbing was not available, people took yearly baths. Most people go married in June because they took their yearly bath in May and they still smelled pretty good in June. In order to cover up any body odor that started to appear, brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide the smell. Not very romantic, I realize, but today summer is still the most popular time to plan a wedding.

Looking for gift ideas for a summer wedding? Well look no further. I have put together a collection of some of my popular wedding prints.
