Wedding bells are ringing

I did a bridal fair this weekend. It was so great. There were a lot, and I mean A LOT of brides and their moms and sisters. Weddings are big business in Utah, the wedding capital of the world it seems at times. If you ever wanted to do big business, something to do with weddings in Utah would be the thing to do.

We set up on Thursday evening and then the fair was Friday evening and all day Saturday. I had two members of my team take Friday evening. I then spent all day Saturday and 3 members of the team split the day. One in the morning with her daughter and two more came for the afternoon. We talked to most of the brides. They were very interested in having Urban Botanic parties for their bridesmaids. I even found a few grooms interested in the men’s scents that I had there.

The biggest surprise came, though, when the Spanish channel’s reporter came over, asked me some questions and then decided to interview me for their report on the fair! Of course she had to translate because my elementary Spanish skills are not up to par anymore.

I was happy that so many of the brides wanted to have parties and give Urban Botanic products as gifts for their bridesmaids. Someone told me that brides in Utah do not give gifts to their bridesmaids. I was surprised about that, I gave gifts to mine (but I am not from Utah originally- maybe that makes a difference). What do you think, to give or not to give?

Time changes

Are you as tired as I am today? I feel like I have flown cross country. I am so jetlagged today. The bummer part is that I did nothing but spring forward. I wish I could have gone somewhere really fun.

Instead I choose to wear my custom fragrance that I called “Spring”. It has vanilla, white tea, sandalwood, and verbena. The verbena gives it a citrussy scent that wakes you up and reminds you of sunny days sitting on the porch and sipping lemonaid. Perhaps a southern villa with lots of trees.

What did you do today to combat the time change?

Bubble Bath 101

Remember those great bubble baths when you were little? Why do we stop taking them? I don’t know. Let’s take the bubble bath back.
So, here is what you need:
Candles
bathtub
Urban Botanic bubble bath
soothing and relaxing CD
CD player (keep electronics away from water)

Lock your self in the bathroom. Light the candles. Turn on the water and adjust the temperature. Pour some of your Urban Botanic bubble bath in your very own custom signature scent under the running water. Fill the tub. Turn on music. Get in tub and relax.

Tips: Urban Botanic bubble bath has nourishing vitamins for your body. It is also jetted tub safe and the bubbles are replenishable with a swish of your hand or turn on the jets of your tub. When you make your bubble bath, use lavender for stress relief or sandalwood to relax. Or even a combination of the two- you decide.

What’s your favorite part of a bubble bath?

Wedding bells are ringing

Bridal fairs abound this time of year. Spring and Summer are great time for weddings, and now is the best time to start preparing.

There is a bridal fair March 16 and 17 at Thanksgiving Point and I will be there. It is a great place for me to introduce Urban Botanic.

Urban Botanic parties are great get togethers for you and your bridesmaids. Get together with your friends, have a good time, and relax. Unwind before the wedding. And you will have a great day and smell good, to boot.

I found out that in Utah, there is not the tradition of giving your bridesmaids a thankyou gift for helping out and being there for you. I was surprised. I gave all of my bridesmaids gifts. What did you do, give gifts or not?
