Introduction
The coronavirus pandemic has brought most events around the world to a halt and pageants are no exception. Many have already been postponed or canceled, while others have made the decision to go virtual.

According to Pageant Planet, Sashes by The Sash Company have been rated the Best Pageant Products of 2019.
We are so honored to be recognized with this great achievement. The Sash Company started on Angelique Barnum’s (CEO) kitchen table in 2002 making her very first graduation stole for her husband Robert Barnum. She discovered a niche market that eventually became the production of – All things Sash and Stole. Almost two years later, with a logo, website in place, and orders coming in, a production company from Los Angeles requests a sash sample. Which to Angelique’s surprise later found out it was for the Miss America Pageant.

Recognition is something all individuals feel we need more of. Feeling seen makes an employee feel appreciated. And you know what they say - A person who feels appreciated will do MORE of what is expected than a person who does not feel appreciated. This is because being recognized is in alignment with feeling appreciated.
Recognition drives productivity. Remember back in grade school? Teachers often rewarded students with a gold star for good behavior and good work. The gold star was something to strive for. It pushed students to work hard just to receive those sparkly, shining stickers. I know I did. Now, as adults...

October 15th is National Learn a Word Day, so The Sash Company felt it was appropriate to do some research and find some of the more obscure English words related to weddings!
If the expression "wedding guest" feels too impersonal or generic for your tastes, perhaps you'd like to call your beloved revelers bridallers. The singular of this rare word means "a guest at a wedding." Its root word, bridal, originally meant "a wedding" or "a wedding feast." The origin of the word bride is uncertain, although it might be linked to the Proto-Indo-European root bru- meaning "to cook, brew, make broth."
