A Colorado-based florist has expanded her business to include cannabis bouquets and infused weddings, filling a gap that remained two years into state legalization, CNBCreports. The company motto is “Straight from your bouquet to your bowl.”
“You can literally take it out and smoke it,” Bec Koop, owner of Buds & Blossoms, said in the report.
Before the lights come up on the Renaissance Theaterworks production of “The Drowning Girls”— written by Canadian playwrights Beth Graham, Charlie Tomlinson and Daniela Vlaskalic — the darkness is filled with the sound of a solemn but slightly off-kilter organ.
That organ suggests a wedding — true to a scenic design with a backdrop featuring three wedding dresses and matching veils. But it also suggests a funhouse — or madhouse — in which all that’s ostensibly solid melts into air, reflecting a world where civilized rituals like weddings have lost their power to regulate or protect, let alone sanctify.
From boho chic to traditional ball gowns, models dressed as smiling brides took Manhattan this month for a trade show of their very own following the fall cycle of womenswear runway around the globe. Some highlights from this year’s Bridal Fashion Week:

London resident Hernoor Grewal and her four sisters were raised by their Punjabi Sikh mother, after their father left the family years ago. When Grewal was married earlier this year, she chose to have her mother, sister and other female relatives conduct numerous wedding rituals, which are customarily performed by male relatives.
Recently, a photograph of Grewal's mother performing a wedding custom normally reserved for the bride's father, went viral on Facebook. In the accompanying story that was shared on the Facebook page Pink Ladoo, Grewal spoke of her mother's struggles as a single parent and why she felt the need to move beyond outdated patriarchal customs.
Magpies are pretty unobtrusive in Britain. They’re no friend to songbirds, but most people rarely give them a second thought.
Australian magpies are a different matter entirely. Each spring – their mating season – the birds become extremely aggressive, and are known for swooping on humans.
Kerry Leikin came into the world with congenital heart disease, a malady that necessitates constant, costly medical care.
The 27-year-old preschool teacher and her 26-year-old fiancé recently postponed their wedding because health care bills had eaten away their finances, leaving them with no money for a ceremony.
At the end of the day, love is all that matters. That was something Jenelle Davis and Deatric Smith had to keep in mind when the chic city wedding that they envisioned, ended up having a chaotic twist.
According to their wedding planner, Crystal McCorkle of Fabulously Created Events, the bride had been planning her wedding for over a year, booking the Hyatt House in Uptown Charlotte to perfectly accompany the high end, elegant city wedding she so desired.
I have a friend. Let’s call him “Erik”. Erik is gay and he wants to get married one day. However, there are two problems with that. First, Erik isn’t in a long-term relationship of any kind and shows no signs of settling down anytime soon. And second, Erik wants his mom at his wedding.Let’s assume that, at some point, Erik will find the love of his life and will settle down with a lovely, smart, and handsome man. First problem solved. The second, sadly, isn’t as straight forward. You see, Erik once asked his mother if she would attend his wedding if he were to be marrying a man and his mother never gave him a straight answer (she didn’t give him a gay answer either). Her answer was that she felt she would be betraying the Lord and that this was tantamount to asking her to choose between Erik and Jesus Christ!Aside from their thoughts on homosexuality, Erik and his mother are super close. Just as a gay son and his mother should be. He considers her the most loving, caring, and wonderful mother a person could have. She would lie for him, she would die for him, she couldn’t go on if she lost him. And he feels the same way. It’s just this one thing she cannot seem to get past.The question that Erik needs answered is: when the time comes, should he invite his mother to his gay wedding? The answer may come easy to some but for Erik it’s the hardest decision he’ll ever have to make. The reason it’s a dilemma is because there are only a few possible conclusions and all but the most unlikely are bad.Erik sees only two outcomes:

It's hard to believe that it's already been two years since Lauren Conrad walked down the aisle.
It felt like just yesterday that we were celebrating the blushing bride's picture-perfect nuptialsto then-boyfriend William Tell, but time really does fly, because today marks the couple's second wedding anniversary. Conrad took to Instagram to share a photo that looks like it was taken straight from your wedding Pinterest board (just because it's private doesn't mean we don't know it exists) in honor of the big day.
