Bee Appreciation Day
October 12th, 2007 @ 3:24 pm by Mrs. Bee
I hereby declare today Bee Appreciation Day!
The bees are all volunteers who work so hard to share their ideas, stories, and lives with us. They never cease to amaze and inspire me with their creativity, passion and generosity.
It’s not always easy - the bees put themselves out there on a public forum, opening themselves up to public criticism and scrutiny. I have to admit there have been stumbling blocks as the site continues to grow, but we’ve been able to overcome it all. And together, we’ve made weddingbee what it is today.
So I’d like to officially thank all past, present and future bees. I hope weddingbee has been able to contribute to your lives, as much as you’ve contributed to all of ours.

I, for one, think that all the Bee contributors are an adorable, fun, very well-written group, and I love visiting the site every day that I can to see what they’ve posted for us to see!

Thanks for all you ladies do. I appreciate all that you shared with us! 
Wow! I peek in here for just a minute, and what do I find? One of the sweetest posts ever! Thanks so much Mrs. Bee - you’re the best!
I would like to thank all the bees for their hard work and effort, and I would really like to extend an extra drop of gratitude to my some of my favorite bees whom I have followed all the way to their respective altars! So shout out to the Strawberry for her great sense of humor/spunk, the Plum for her elegant style, the Lemon for her ease, the Emerald for the ‘oh how I wish I had a little sister like you, plus the Plumeria and Tomato for the sheer charm and adorability! Each bee offer up something for their ‘fans’ and I thank you all for making me feel like I’m not alone in the crazy wedding world!
Mrs. Bee, thank you for everything you do on an every day basis to keep this place alive & kicking. And to the other Bees: Keep up all the wonderful work, I love being (bee-ing?) a part of such a great group of girls!
Oh and of course THANK YOU MRS.BEE for making this little world possible!!
Oh warm & fuzzies!!! Thanks, Mrs. Bee for this pick me up on a slow Friday. Even though I’m a newbee (just had to!) I’ve been an avid reader for a while and am so glad that there’s such a great community of amazing ladies here (readers & bloggers alike). Everyone’s always so positive and fun. And mega thanks to Mrs. Bee for starting this and continuing to make it an inviting place!
Yay, Bees! Thanks for making my days just a little more fun, happy and informed!
Thank you for such a sweet post Bee- that made my day! I’m so honored to be part of such a special community– I think all my fellow Bees are amazing women and I’m in constant awe and admiration of them. And I think the Wedding Bee community is so kind and so collaborative– I’m so happy to be a part of it!
yay, Bees!!!
Mrs. Bee-you rock my face off. Love you long time.
go bees~ this site is kinda bittersweet… i wish bees graduated to marriedbee after the wedding~! you get to know them via the site, then boom they get married, and save for a handful of follow up posts, they go away =(. having been a reader from day one, i really miss the og bees but of course, there are many new bees to keep the joy alive, so heres to a long and happy future for all the bees!
Yay Bees!
Happy Bee Appreciation Day! Everyday I come and visit and see what you ladies (and gent) have to share with me… personal stories, tips, etc., I devour it! This is creepy, but I do feel like with all the sharing, I “know” all the Bees, their likes and dislikes, and so on. I love this community! Best! Wedding! Blog! Evah!
I’m having a horrible day at work today and up to my neck in projects. I checked WB just for a minute to find this! Thank you Mrs Bee!
Nicely said! Hurray for all you bees!!!!
I enjoy this site so much, and I just wanted to say thanks for all you’ve done to keep this going. It’s great to have a place to talk all that is wedding without fear of driving other people crazy.
All the bees are wonderful resources for past and present and future brides.
Happy Bee Appreciation Day!
Thanks, Mrs. Bee! Today has been absolutely lousy for me, and this put a smile on my face

Awwww thanks Mrs. Bee!!! Sweetest thing ever!!! I came home sick today and napped for a long time and woke up grumpy, so this definitely made my day! Thanks for letting me be a part of this and making all of it possible!!! And thanks to all the other bees for keeping me reading & thoroughly entertained from a long time before I became a bee until now, months after my own wedding!
