Hi all. When I read the wonderful post of everyone concerned about Sasha I immediately had to let her know how much she is missed.
Below is SomethingBlu's message to all....

(Even though I'm getting married in in in in like ummmm...a couple of days! AHHH...
I'm still on and will have no problem sending you FM of Sasha's e-mail if you would like to keep in touch.)

I HATE drama and gossip and rumors. If you could please post that I left out of my own free will because I chose to leave and that this was not due to anything regarding any vendors, I would be forever grateful. I CHOSE to leave LIW. I hate 'pack mentality' as much as the next person and I certainly don't consider myself a basher of anyone...contrary to what any vendor or person might think. Regarding jellybean1420's comment, I'd like to clarify that I never attacked anyone constantly. The one vendor I had a problem with, my hair vendor, had a very fair review and it was approved prior to posting (I was a definite rule follower)...facts, not emotion or half truths were posted. I explained thoroughly what my particular situation was and what prompted me to give this vendor that particular review. My experience was unique and since there are 3 'truths': mine, the vendor's and the truth, I can clearly only see things from my perspective, so whatever story is being said elsewhere cannot relate to what I, the bride, went through the morning of my wedding. Nor does it encompass what my MOH went through...or my mom was told...or was said so that this person would stay. I will say that whatever happened, happened and it worked out for the best...but I'd like this vendor to deny the fact that she almost walked out and left me without hair - something she cannot do. For all future brides, please go with your gut and if it squeaks enough, listen! There are no do-overs, you only get one wedding day...pick carefully! I would only reply when someone asked specifically about this vendor...never did I start a 'this person stinks' thread or did I attack. Instead, I directed brides to my review which was long yes, but had the entire story. And I'll say it again, I had extremely UNIQUE circumstances...which could explain the lack of professionalism...or not. Either way, my intention is not to hurt anyone's business. I hope this vendor read my review and used it as a tool to improve her attitude because I may have been the only one to 'say it' but there were other brides who dealt with less than pleasant service from this person. And a bride doesn't need that - and this bride had enough to deal with that morning (hello? no dress!). You may post this entire paragraph verbatim. Thank you!

Please tell the girls I miss them too...all of your weddings will be so amazing...can't wait to see pics, hear about it and 'see' all your hard work pay off!

Dina - the post starter (not a word, LOL)- You can email me whenever she wants. Can't wait to see your pictures...woo-hoo!

Nicole - So sweet! Again, you can email me whenever...

Hollie - Thank you for not promoting gossip...kisses!

Tara - I'm available through email should you need ANY help!

Cindy - Happy planning girl! And again, can reach me via email!

Janie - Can also email me...I know you'll make a stunning bride.

Lana - Wow, yes, we go back to theknot days...married life and moving on...so many BIG things await us! You're welcome to email me should you want to KIT!

Stephanie - I'm so happy that I have helped you...feel free to email me!

Susan - Not coming back...but would love to KIT!

Daphne - Sorry about the account...it was my way of fighting temptation. LOL Feel free to email me!

jellybean1240 - I responded above. Know that I never attacked anyone. As a matter of fact, I refrained from FMing, giving details, etc. But I can not, in good conscience, recommend anyone whose service was less than professional. A wedding day is just too important a day for me to just lie...it's not me.

Rebecca - Thank you for not promoting rumors!

Carolyn - You are such a postive and happy person. You are deserving of all the happiness that is yet to be. And OMG, someone called LIW brides the 'c' word! That's the worst word ever! Sorry!

Marie - Girl you are soclose! All of you gorgeous November brides are so close! I know you must be nutty right now, but you can email me once things get back to normal (and you get your brain back! LOL)...I can't wait to hear all about your wedding and hope JT is better to you than they were to me (and they were OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!).

Lori - Sweet beyond words...

I love you ALL! I'm sorry I never posted one of those 'goodbye' posts...I think they're so sad and I'd like to think that although I'm not on LIW anymore I can still stay in tough with you lovelies. Feel free to email me...and sorry Rebecca and Lori for asking you to give out my email address...I know you're busy, I just don't feel comfortable posting it for all to see...since LIW is a 'public' forum.
