Every week we will take turns blogging about something we came across that inspires us. I come from an Asian upbringing, and is it our tradition to honor our parents during the wedding ceremony. At my wedding, we presented both my parents and my husband’s parents with flowers. We also put out beautifully framed pictures of our parents on their wedding day on display at the reception. Looking at those photos made me feel so connected to them- the same beaming smile on my mother’s face was on my face that day. She looked so elegant in a simple A-line dress in white satin. She is still just as elegant- and they just celebrated their 35th anniversary!
So, this week I wanted to share a cute site I ran across that celebrates the lives of our parents. Elliot Glazer is a blogger that put together a photo blog that asks people to post pics of their parents in their glory days- how did they look before they were parents. It’s called My Parents Were Awesome and well, it’s just awesome. Check it out here. Seeing these photos and rocking retro fashion may inspire you to include your parents and their awesomeness into your special day.
the happy couple
