About Mrs. Flamingo

Being a blogger for Weddingbee has definitely made me feel special/sort of celebrity-ish at times. But I’m just a normal gal who blogged about her wedding planning, and it was an honor to share it with all of you. Some bees have been recognized in public on several occasions (crazy, I know!).

Mr. Flamingo and I took part of a wedding TV show called La Bosse des Noces, and that was definitely an interesting experience.

A couple of weeks ago, I was flipping through the channels on the television and came face to face… with myself. Yup, our wedding was airing again on television. It was kind of neat. I have been wanting to share this video for quite some time, but trying to find a way to upload the video took longer than I anticipated. But I can finally share it with you now.

So for those of you who understand French - enjoy!

La Bosse des Noces from Kelly De Luca on Vimeo.

Though it may not look like it, but I was extremely nervous. It’s not every day you have cameras in your face and someone prepping your makeup. A hint to my nervousness? Notice how many times I say the word “Glamour”. LOL …

The show was about helping us out with issues we came across while planning our wedding. They helped us out with decor elements and our place card chandelier tree. What’s great is that they even featured Wes Jones of Film Jones because they found 8mm video really intriguing… plus, that whole segment is in English. :)

Our wedding was also on the web with a detailed description of the episode (for Canadians only), list of stores where they purchased the items for our wedding, and DIY explanations. Check it out here (if you can read French). Our wedding will be playing for the next 5 years (reruns, obviously). But seriously, we loved our experience and would do it again in a heartbeat.

So that’s it… I’m officially done with my wedding recaps. Sniff sniff. I hope you enjoyed my blogging as Mrs. Flamingo. Now this is not an official goodbye, because I will stick around the hive and maybe blog a few more things. ;) But my journey as a bee is finished. I’ve been around for 2 years exactly… and it’s my time to sign off and let the spotlight shine on the new bees.

You can visit me on Glamour This!, my personal blog. Or better yet, follow even more of my randomness on twitter @blushink.

Best of luck to everyone, and thank you for reading/listening to my rambling. :)

Now and forever,
Flamingo
xoxo

I totally understood everything even though I only know about 4 French phrases. The little bit of Spanish and Portuguese I know helped me pick out words that are similar. But this is such a cool way to “sign off”. So awesome. I never really thought about you two knowing French even though I knew you were Canadian. Weird! haha

It took a little getting used to (I lived in France, not Quebec) but your frequent use of Glamour helped me follow along! Your wedding was absolutely beautiful, thank you SO much for sharing this with us … if only all the bees could turn their wedding into a TV show!
Glad you’re planning on sticking around, thanks for sharing everything :)
