Have you heard our big news yet? This month we are setting out to break a world record in Northern Colorado!  Guinness World Record: Longest Line of Toothbrushes Did you know that pediatric dental disease, also known as childhood tooth decay, is the #1 chronic childhood illness in America? Or that 1 in 5 U.S. children go without dental care? Or that more than 40% of children have dental cavities by the time they reach kindergarten? I didn’t. Here at Change Gangs, we want to support charities that make a big impact on people’s lives, and it turns out that something as small as a toothbrush, can make a pretty big impact. That’s because children with poor oral health are 3 times more likely to miss school as a result of dental pain. If they do go to school, the pain can make it difficult to pay attention and learn. And the feelings of shame and low self-esteem that children often feel when they have bad teeth can make it hard for them to fully participate in school and build the social skills that will help them succeed as adults. Because a good education is one of the most important factors influencing future employment prospects and lifetime earning ability, poor dental health as a child can impact his or her entire life. Untreated childhood dental disease also has serious long-term health consequences and has been connected to heart disease, stroke, pulmonary disease, and pre-term, low birth-weight babies. In 2012, someone visited the ER every 15 seconds for an emergency dental condition.  It’s Happening on February 26th! February is National Children’s Dental Health Month which makes it the perfect time to tackle this problem. Thanks to Delta Dental of Colorado, Nanci Garnand of Re/Max, and the Loveland Design Center, we have 55,000 toothbrushes that we’ll line up end to end for a record breaking 5.5 mile long line of toothbrushes. Don’t worry, the toothbrushes are individually wrapped, so they will stay clean, sanitary, and suitable for donation. After we break the record, the toothbrushes will be disbursed to food banks and children’s organization throughout the state of Colorado. How Can You Help? Spread the word! We’re spending the entire month of February spreading the word about the importance of dental hygiene for children and how people can help children in need get access to better dental care. We need volunteers! Can you help with a 2 hour shift? Email Sharon: sharon@sharonlipinski.com Also, if you want to help financially. We have the toothbrushes, but it would be amazing to provide toothpaste to go with it. Our goal is to raise $5,000 for toothpaste. If we raise more money than we need for that purpose, then we'll direct those funds to America's Tooth Fairy to provide dental care to children in need. 100% of donations you make go directly to either of these purposes.

The My Big Day team hasn't posted on our blog in a little while. In addition to a very busy wedding season, conferences, signature events and holiday parties... our team has been busy having babies! 4 My Big Day babies have been born in 2018! We are sure busy juggling events and families.  We are still busy plotting and planning behind the scenes!
More to come in 2019! My Big Day was proud to yet again put on the corporate conference for one of our favorite clients! They offer a day of advice, motivation and empowerment to all of their employees. We hosted amazing speakers this year who left our 300+ guests feeling refreshed and revived! Our blog has been neglected for a little while as we are still in the thick of wedding season (along with some corporate events and regular party planning)! We have been blessed with amazing couples with such loving families -and couples from all over the country this year! Below are a few weddings we took some photos of. Thank you to all the wonderful families who invited us to be part of their Big Day! Ethan & Callie

Our 1st Annual NoCo Road Rally sold out last year, and we are so glad that participants loved this creative event! Tickets go on sale soon for our 2nd Annual NoCo Road Rally, which will be held on June 23rd, 2018.  A road rally is a kind of motorized sport. Similar to "The Amazing Race," it is a competition of accuracy not speed. Participants are sent out in teams, with a goal of navigating the course from start to finish while solving clues and completing challenges along the way - then arriving at the final destination first. Our road rally scavenger hunt requires the driver and their team to decode clues while still maintaining the most efficient travel time possible. Road Rally's (or sometimes called car rally) scavenger hunts have been celebrated across America for years and years. Participants are given clues about where to start, and they must solve a clue or complete a puzzle at every stage along the way. There are many variations of a Road Rally, and My Big Day has YEARS of experience putting on fun scavenger hunts. We know you'll have a good time! This year the NoCo Road Rally is in Loveland. Learn more HERE Not only is this a fun night out, it's for a great cause.... and you could win CASH!!! Tickets are $150 per car (for the entire team!)
