Happy Labor Day!

The people who carry stuff from place to place rarely get the credit they deserve.

I’m always happy to celebrate Labor Day, and all the working people who make possible much of our good lives.  Here are the people I really appreciate when I’m on site at a wedding:  the kitchen staff; the florist’s set-up and tear-down crew; the building engineers who take care of heating and cooling and make sure the lights are working; the security guards; the people who set up and clean portable restrooms; the delivery drivers; anyone who carries heavy stuff from a truck to a room or back out again; the sound engineers; the good people who come in at the end of the night to clean the floors and take out the trash.

Most of the time all of these excellent people are invisible to an event.  They aren’t glamorous.  But they are all indispensable.  Today is a day to celebrate their contributions to your party, wedding, or other event.  Happy Labor Day to all of you!!
