Volunteering For The Cinderella Project MKE

2010-04-06T14:48:00.000-07:00

Elizabeth and I had such a wonderful time when we were helping the girls choose their prom dresses at the Cinderella Project event! The girls were so excited when they found their dresses and so grateful.

After we consulted with them about what they wanted and what prom look they were going for, we headed into the room that had all of the dresses. And there were so many choices for them! When they found "the one", they got their photo taken by a professional photographer and had a chance to get makeup and hair tips. The smiles on their faces throughout the shopping experience was priceless, and I hope we have a chance to volunteer again next year!

Thank you to all of our customers who donated their dresses, you made so many girls very happy!

Match Your Flowers To Your Prom Dress

2010-03-05T09:41:00.000-08:00

So you now have your dress, and you are totally in love with it. But now you have to make sure that everything else you accessorize with for that night looks just as great! Especially your flowers! If you have a date, or not. You should still be getting flowers:) They make you feel beautiful and girly. If you are worried that your date will pick something out that will totally clash with your dress. Go with him to pick something out, or give him a piece of fabric off the lining of your dress so he can have a color to work with.

Bank of Memories and Flowers

And after you go through all of that to make sure you'll have the right color, you have to find the perfect place to get the flowers. We recommend Bank of Memories and Flowers in Menomonee Falls. They are great to work with and have fun fresh ideas for your Prom flowers.And even if you send your date alone to pick out the flowers, they will make sure you end up with something you'll really love! After all, you want something special and unique!
