Where do I begin? To make a long story short, I am the bride's maid of honor, currently putting her engagement website together and tackling all the vendor contacts, while pretending like I can work with this incredibly low budget that just got lower by a little over a grand. So crap happens as we all have experienced during the worse times ever, and all we can really do is roll with the punches and keep our heads up and move forward. There is literally no time to sit back and cry, hoping things turn around. I wish to be the change I seek and therefore I am doing something about it.
A family incident occurred last week, and my best friend was informed that she would have to give up over a grand of her hard earned savings to resolve a family emergency. Now she is sadly willing to settle for a mediocre wedding, and I just will not have it!
I am taking matters into my own hands and doing my part to reach out to former knotties and see if there are any new brides who have recently had their wedding or will have their wedding before August 28th 2010. I am in desperate need of wedding centerpieces and decor of all sorts. I am incredibly creative and am confident I could work wonders with items that may not even sound like they would go with our 'Old World Glamour' theme.
Our current colors are vibrant teal, velvety reds, soft whites, and chromey silvers. I am still willing to look at anything and improvise with whatever you may have that you think might work. In exchange, I am willing to go into the homes of anyone willing to allow us to use their items for the day of our wedding, and conduct full scale interior design consultations completely free of charge! I am a professional interior design consultant, with a reputable design business here in Austin, and would be more than happy to take a whole day's worth of work and assist you in creating the home of your dreams. I can assist with minor color consultations, or professional second opinions, to entire updating of residential remodeling projects and space planning and design of all sorts.
We don't need to keep a thing of yours and would be willing to put in writing our acceptance of full responsibility to return all your belongings in the same way we received them.
In exchange for the use of your wedding accessories, I believe I will make it worth your while to offer you professional interior design consulting for your home or business. I have over 5 years experience, working for luxury custom home builders, as well as avid real estate investors, and my favorite, new home buyers! It would be an absolute pleasure in working for you, FREE OF CHARGE, just for a one day use of your items.
So please contact me and let me know what you have and what you would like from me. No request or offering is too big or small. I am willing to consider anything at this point. Just want to offer my best friend piece of mind in knowing her wedding day can still be all she envisioned regardless of not being able to afford the essentials. I am hoping there is someone out there who could use my services and provide us with a little help as well.

Best Regards and thank you for your time and consideration!
Thanks,
Christina
