There was cotton candy AND beauty services.\u00a0 Nails by The Nail Lounge<\/a> and false eyelashes by Flawless Faces<\/a>.\u00a0 Holly insisted we get them.\u00a0 I was a false eyelash virgin but not anymore! Once I got over worrying about if everyone could tell I was wearing them, I can see how it could be addicting.<\/p>\n

This event also had a contest going.\u00a0 Wedding designers signed up to create table settings and all the guests got to vote on which they liked best.\u00a0 All the tables were fantastic!\u00a0 We’re not allowed to show the photos of them just yet but I can tell you my girls of Just Wenderful<\/a>, Katy Carrier Events<\/a> and Cake Goodness<\/a> won!!!\u00a0 Holly and I were so proud we screamed and there were tears (Holly’s, not mine) The prize?\u00a0 $1500!!<\/p>\n
