One of my wedding collections is called The Full Experience.
I know it sounds a little cheesy at first, but thereās a story behind the name.
My late father-in-law was one of the funniest, people Iāve ever known. Whenever he had the chance to try something new, he would always say, āgive me the full experience.ā It didnāt matter what it was.
If I made a Romanian dish and showed him the traditional way to eat it, he would immediately want to know exactly how to do it so he could get the full experience. A new restaurant? The full experience. A day trip? The full experience. A special occasion? You guessed it, the full experience.
Over time it became an inside joke. Even now, whenever we are treating ourselves, trying something new, or doing something we enjoy, someone inevitably says, āthe FULL experience ā
When it came time to name the most complete wedding collection, the choice felt obvious and he loved the fact that we did that, of course āŗļø
I miss him dearly. He had a gift for making people laugh, making people feel welcome, and reminding us to fully enjoy whatever it is we are given.
Some things in life⦠scratch thatā¦MOST things in life are worth experiencing completely.
Go have a ā full experience ā kinda day! āØ
