Real Weddings: Betty and Michael

Betty and I have a lot interesting ties to each other that I didn’t know existed until we met! First, Jin had recommended me as a florist to Betty when they were both planning their weddings. When I talked to Betty on the phone, I learned that her fiance, Michael, is actually a son of one of my dad’s old friends from waaaaay back in the day when I was still in diapers. But it doesn’t even stop there. Flash forward a couple of months when Betty and Mike stop by for a consultation. They bring Mike’s parents as well as Mike’s older sister. Hubby was hanging around that day also and when he saw Mike’s sister, he thought she looked very familiar. Turns out she is one of the doctors in our primary care physician group and he had gone in to see her one time! So crazy!! And to think LA is just one giant sprawl of a city…

It’s been a lot of fun working with Betty and Mike on their wedding. We saw each other again in San Francisco at Jin’s wedding (hey, remember her? She’s the one that brought us all together!) and I managed to convince Betty to hire me to print her invitations by letterpress! See what happens after a few drinks??
