<title>A letter from Marjorie &amp; Blaine</title>
<link>http://www.MagnoliasEvents.com/modules.php?name=News&amp;file=article&amp;sid=16</link>
<description>Dear Friends,
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
We would like to start by thanking all of our past, current and future clients for sharing one of life’s most precious moments with Magnolias. You have allowed us to create one-of-a-kind designs for your weddings, giving us the opportunity to get to know you and bring your personality and style to life. You have given us wonderful memories that we fondly remember. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
This coming year, 2006, will be a year of changes. Magnolias will be restructuring our services at the end of 2005 to offer wedding coordinating, planning, and other consulting services, while cutting back on the fresh flower aspects that many of you have come to enjoy. We are concentrating on these services so that my husband and I can start a family. :-) We will continue to book the floral aspects of clients’ events 3 months prior to the event date but will stop once we are expecting. We feel strongly about our commitment to our clients, understand our place in your day and would not want to jeopardize any event with an unexpected complication. We wanted to share this news with all of you because you have shared so much with us. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Our shopping mall will continue to grow; and, we will continue to add product lines and ideas. A few of our new product lines will include custom invitations and programs, painted glassware and gifts, and do-it yourself centerpieces.  We will expand our members area with features you have requested through our &lt;a href=&quot;/modules.php?name=Surveys&amp;pollID=9&quot;&gt;polls&lt;/a&gt;. 
 Please contact us if you have any questions regarding our new services. 
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Best Wishes,&lt;br&gt;
Marjorie &amp; Blaine
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
PS- If you have a photo you would like to share please send it to events@magnoliasevents.com or forward it to 2645 Marsh Road, Wilmington, DE 19810. We would love to have a private scrapbook of our past clients!
