An introduction and playing dress up

I would like to introduce Ryne, our new intern. He is a junior in high school and aspires to one day be a fashion designer. You can see some of his beautiful sketches on his self-created website. One day, when he's on Project Runway, he'll be telling people about the quirky ladies at a little bridal boutique in Madison that saw promise in his designs.


Laura and I have a unique business relationship in that we have been close friends since elementary school - a recipe for disaster in business according to most. But our friendship and mutual respect have only served to strengthen the business side of our relationship. Now Laura and I have daughters that are the same age and they are great friends. They joined us at the store today and were playing dress up within about five minutes of the door being opened. There are some perks to having moms with a bridal shop!
Anna, Laura's daughter, is sweet in Lynn Lugo's lemonade dupioni and Marlie, Rosemary's daughter, is feeling pretty in Vera Wang. And, of course, they're both loving the Christina Garcia headpieces.
