Since I was a child, I’ve always attended family weddings and loved the meaning of LOVE. The moment when two souls decide to join as one. I was always that one guest that would get up out of their seat and assist the event planners if they needed help. I enjoyed helping. I guess it’s the Social Worker in me. Nonetheless, In 2013 I officially started planning small events and weddings and eventually got married to the love of my life. However, my happiness was short-lived and I lost my husband nine months later in a motor vehicle accident one night. The sparkle and light that I once had was filled with depression and years of hopelessness. As the months and years past me by, I realized that I had to pick myself up by the bootstraps and move forward for my son. I returned to event planning but realized I had found a new passion, which was bridal accessories. Some may say what’s so special about bridal jewelry? I say everything. My role is to enhance a bride’s beauty with our Swarovski crystal that shines so bright you won’t be able to take your eyes off of her. So today I bring you Jewels by Charles. - Jeannie Charles of @Jewels_by_Charles Read the rest of Jeannie's story on VoyageMIA.com Image credits: @k.ameyphotography @imagesbyjulesphotography @zavierdeangelo @stanlophotography
