Used every contact I had until I finally started getting bites. I landed my largest customer that season and they are still my customer until this day. Then word of mouth gets out if you have a great product you will sore. Best of Luck to you !!

The mother of the bride called and ask to take me to breakfast . We met she said she was still flying on a cloud. That everything was perfect! She asked me for the names of all that worked the wedding. Broughtme an envelope with each one with names on each one, a personalized note for each person with a tip and tea bags that were favors tied with twine as a gift. They were all so touched. They had all received tips before but never with a personalized note. She then told me with all the stress of a wedding I gave her great peace through the whole process
