TWO PEOPLE that deserve a call first before you begin ANY exercise workout: #1 and MOST IMPORTANTLY — your physician. Always get your physician’s A-OK…

Tips from the Wyoming Pros: Wedding Expo Labels!
LINK TO OUR WEBSITE & FIND A WY VENDOR: www.wyoweddings.com www.bridaltradeshows.com Keith Turbitt of Keith Turbitt’s Shutter-Vision in Cheyenne had a beyond fabulous suggestion for helping to streamline your wedding expo experience: labels! While at the Cheyenne Bridal Expo last Sunday, Keith noticed a few brides had created labels with their name, their fiance’s name, their wedding date and contact info (phone number, email, etc.). Instead of rewriting this over and over…and over and over…at the expo, they simply stuck on a label on the form at each vendor’s table and kept on moving. Brilliant! Thanks to Keith Turbitt’s Shutter-Vision in Cheyenne for sharing! Just had to add one of…

COLOR INSPIRATION: RED by Abbydell!
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE & FIND A WY VENDOR: www.wyoweddings.com OUR SISTER PUBS: Wyoming Lifestyle Magazine: www.wyolifestyle.com Wyovore: www.wyovore.com Thanks to Abbydell Photography in Jackson for providing our color inspiration — RED! Red is such a bold and emotion-evoking color. It can stand alone, it can pop against neutrals such as white (or my always favorite neutral, chocolate brown), but it can also look sweet with pink, fiery with orange, powerful with blue and white, dramatic and romantic with black… Red just looks you in the face and challenges you not to feel emotion with it. So do you take the challenge? Do you take on RED and all…
