Flamingo Spotlight

May 21st, 2008 @ 2:22 pm by Mrs. Flamingo

Here in the province of Quebec, we have something we like to call Quebec Television. Unlike other provinces, we not only have American channels but also our own independent primetime French language soap operas and TV dramas. Let’s say we have our mini Quebec Hollywood thing going on.

Now you must be wondering why I’m writing about this… please bear with me. We have one local channel called Canal Vie (basically it’s sort of like a French version of TLC) that has a wedding show called La Bosse des Noces (translation - The Wedding Boss), where a team of people help you with your wedding planning and problems you might come across along the way.


They’re always in search of couples to help, so I decided to send in our 12 page application at the end of February. It was clearly stated that if we passed the pre-selection, we would get contacted 2 months prior to the wedding. Since the 2 month mark passed and I never got any news, I forgot about it…. well I got a call last week and they want to meet us!

Apart from having parts of our wedding televised, whatever they decide to help you with, they offer as a gift to the couple. How awesome is that!!!

I was told to bring every single thing I can think of that is wedding related - from pictures to my actual favors. This is when you realize how great blogging about my whole wedding process really is. It’s made collecting this information so much easier.

Since they are behind on the whole process (we only 1 month left to my wedding), they narrowed down the choice to 2 couples. Us and someone else. That means we have a 50% chance of getting chosen.

Our audition is TODAY!!! I’m so nervous! I really hope we get chosen.

Wish us luck!
