Ask The Bee: A Virus in Vera Wang
Dear Bee, As cliché as it may sound, I was always the girl who dreamt of her wedding…the big white Vera Wang gown, the overabundance of flowers, the signing of the Ketubah, you name it, I have thought it out in perfect detail. Fast forward 31 years. I met my forever in the most unexpected…
A Father’s Day Love Note to Bazz
