Good Things Come in Twos!

2 Adult Princesses
2 Charming Princes
2 Rings
2 April Proposals
2 Happy Yeses                                                                                                         
2 more sons...both responsible and devoted Christian men we're proud to add to the family.                                                                                                 
And...
2 Summer Weddings... This summer!  One in late July and one in early August.  19 days apart, to be exact.                                                                                                            
All of this results in 1 joyful, but slightly frantic and emotional Mother of the Brides.  ;-)                                                                                                                                                                   
These are the 2 events I've been planning that I eluded to in "We're not Worthy!"  At that time I was frustrated in locating, sifting through, and dealing with venues, the prices, restrictions, and the customer service people who weren't always big on service to those with limited funds.                                                                                                                             
We are a family who always struggles with finances and budget, being a family of 10 on an income of 1 teacher.  So, like everything we do,  these will be cost-conscious events.  -- Very nice, and very special, in spite of it... and unique to each bride.  We don't want the weddings to scream "Home made," or worse, "Cheap," but we will all be counting costs and considering carefully, spending our money where necessary and according to the couples' personal priorities.  I'll share our challenges and choices along the way.
