Seeing as my best friend is planning her wedding and I work for a Stationery company I thought it only appropriate that I upload some of my favorite wedding related images today. I hope you enjoy all things romantic as much as I do.

The Berlin Reunion

2009-10-29T09:40:00.000-07:00

France’s Royal de Luxe street theater company performed this larger than life sized animatronic street spectacle titled The Berlin Reunion a few weeks ago. 1.5 million Europeans lined the streets of Berlin to see these amazing ‘puppets’ walk the streets looking for each other. “Part of the celebrations of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Reunion show featured two massive marionettes, the Big Giant, a deep-sea diver, and his niece, the Little Giantess. The storyline of the performance has the two separated by a wall, thrown up by “land and sea monsters”. The Big Giant has just returned from a long and difficult - but successful - expedition to destroy the wall, and now the two are walking the streets of Berlin, seeking each other after many years apart.” View all the images at the Boston Globe website .

Artist Willie Berch

Bottle Tree by Willie Berch. I recently did a photo shoot of Mr. Berch's work for an art award he is being honored for in New Orleans. This collection of bottles is strung along the fence in the backyard of his studio. He began collecting bottles from friends before Katrina in 2005. Most were destroyed in the storm but since he has started a new tree that is quite beautiful. Bottle trees originated in the Congo where it was said that colored glass attracted evil spirits and trapped them inside bottles. When the wind blew, the moaning sound made by the wind whistling in the bottles was said to be these trapped spirits.
