Valentine themed wedding planning
I remember February from childhood as the month of hearts, chocolate, doilies, lace and cards! I loved it. A fun decorated box to collect my cards and candy in. As an adult, I remember sending my twin daughters to the father daughter dance. Oh, how sweet it is to have these fun memories.
History of Valentines Day
Valentine greetings date back to the early 1400s. Americans probably began exchanging hand-made valentines in the early 1700s. In the 1840s. Esther A. Howland, known as the "Mother of Valentine" began selling the first mass-produced valentines in America. They were elaborate creations with real lace, ribbons and colorful pictures known as “scrap.”
