FAST FACTS

Did you know that . . . Weddings Around the World -

1. Peas are thrown at Czech newlyweds instead of rice.

2. In Holland, a pine tree is planted outside the newlywed's home to symbolize fertility.

3. To ensure that she'll never do without, a Swedish Bride places a silver coin from her father and a gold coin from her mother in each shoe.

4. Historically, Danish men and women cross dressed in order to confuse evil spirits.

5. Most Moroccan women take a milk bath to purify themselves before their ceremony.

OTC - and the Coker Family

In the Spring of 2008, OTC offered it's first course for "Professional Wedding Planners", through "Continuing Education". Sherry Dziwanowski, a computer specialist in Continuing Education was engaged to be married in June, 2008 and offered to be the Bride for the girls in the spring semester. This gave our class a hands on bride to work with. It was a "win - win" situation for everyone. The girls followed through with the wedding and all was well.

Sherry, her family, my family and I, have all become good friends through this chance meeting at OTC. Sherry and I are now "Stampin Up" buddies. I have since joined Sherry's stampin club and I love every minute of it. I would like to introduce you to the new Coker Family - from left, Nick and Jayden Dziwanowski, Sherry, Joe and Kenzie Coker.
