These are so pretty I could cry!
I’m just so excited about this I wanted to post on WIW too!
What I Wore Down the Aisle: I’m not sure I can find the words to express my gratitude for this lovely and thoughtful gift from the team at Kate Spade! I mean, I just about cried tears of joy for their generousity.
I may not have a dress picked out, but I do have my wedding shoes, which also happen to be the most beautiful pair of shoes I own and can’t wear for another 10 months (and then I will dye them marigold or something fabulous so I can wear them forever!!!!)
Thank you, so so much, Kate Spade NY!

No, that’s actually exactly what you’re saying. You’re threatening to shut down all social services and outreach programs within the District (which frankly, could be provided by any number of other organizations who would gladly accept several million dollars in contracts) if you don’t get the law bent to fit your view of how people should live.
If you accept public funds, you have to obey public law. It’s that simple.
We’re not asking to get married in your church. We don’t want to and we’re not going to try to twist your arm to be recognized in an institution where our relationships aren’t accepted.
But if you’re willing to put the well-being of the least fortunate among us - the poor, the abused, the unloved - in the back seat just because the world is changing at a pace you can’t handle, that’s just embarrassing.
Get your fingers off the hot buttons and try showing the world that you’re as Christ-like as you claim to be, for a change. It’d do a world of good for you and for us.
