Houston Community News >> Lucky 777
7/6/2007-- There are 7 days in
a week, 7 wonders of the world, and 7 deadly sins. Tomorrow Desperate Housewives
Star, Eva Longoria and the Spurs Tony Parker will tie the knot on the date
7-7-07.
Across the Wiregrass, many brides are following suit.
Jessica Creamer did not realize she picked 7-7-07 for her wedding date. “The
cake server came in the mail and we had our names engraved on it and it said
July 7, 2007” said Jessica.
This date only happens every 100 years and some believe the number is lucky.
Jessica said she is not a superstitious person but is hoping the good luck will
swing their way “I think it’s a good day to get married or have anything they
don’t want to forget.”
The owner of Dothan’s “Blushing Bride” said there has been a spike in orders for
July 7th, “I think it’s because it’s a unique day and easy to remember. It’s a
unique thing to have it on that day.” Her orders for Saturday have doubled and
according to “The Knot” website, that is true across the country.
Both places Jessica wanted a cake from could not cut it. “My stepmother is
making a cake for me and she’s really excited about it and I know it will be
great” said Jessica.
But walking down the aisle isn’t the only thing people are doing on 7-7-7. Some
people thought other things would be lucky.
Daniel Curtis said he is going to a casino to see if he can “strike it big with
tomorrow being a lucky day.” But he too did not realize it was 7-7-7.
The number seven is a lucky number in casinos. Saturday morning at 7 am, 12 Six
Flags Theme Parks will host 7 weddings before the parks open.
