Bridal Shower #2!

I was completely overwhelmed with the love and details that went into my bridal shower. My best friend Kelly did so good. I love her so much! No detail was too small.

Gift table

Each table's centerpiece was different.

Cupcake and drink table

Cupcakes that Kelly MADE!

Food buffet

Yummy food.

Kelly personalized picture frames for me! (The flowers)

More yummy food!

Kelly and her mom. THANK YOU for everything!!

Like I said, YUMMY!

We played the purse scavenger hunt game. I literally only had 5 things in my purse! (special small purse just for the shower. If I had known we were playing this game, I would have brought my HUGE one! LOL!)

But that's ok. Falon won the scavenger hunt game!

We also played a Price is Right game. Kelly had bought everything I needed to make a spaghetti dinner, including garlic bread and dessert. We had to guess how much it all cost (before tax). The closest one without going over, won. I said $12. Jami said $11. It was $11.43! LOL! But I got to keep the food.

The awesome favors. From Oriental Trading. I got to keep all the extras.

My best friends! Kelly and my sister. Kelly is handing Hannah a cute little wedding journal that she had put a pearl "S" on the front for me. Hannah used this to write down all the gifts I received.

Me and my best friend Karen. She's engaged too!!

Me and my sissy! I love her!

My sister, my mom, and I, holding my FAVE gift. It is a wooden plaque that says "Sarah & Matthew" and over that it says "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. -Joshua 24:15" LOVE IT!

My BEST friend and me. I don't know what I'd do without her.

Like I said. No detail was too small. They used a LIME GREEN (one of our wedding colors) blanket to cover up the random stuff in the corner! Hehehe. Love it.

I am so so SO blessed to have friends like these. I thank God for them!

Much Love,

Last Weekend

Here is my late update from last weekend. We did so much shopping!! I'm mostly just posting pictures though. Please feel free to comment!!!

This isn't the greatest pic, but this is where the ceremony will be.

I totally stole this idea (and pic!) from my friend Megan, but I want to do the tulle and lights from the ceiling like this pic, but for the ceremony.

We will be hanging paper lanterns like this for the indoor reception. (See following pics for exact colors)

 

 

This will be what we do for half of the centerpieces, although we are using different flowers. We have everything we need for them, except the lime slices. And we are buying fake ones! LOL!

 

I kinda like this idea for the other centerpieces. But not sure. I need ideas for that!!!

We are using this stuff to make an arrangement for the guest book table.

I bought these to go in my bouquet. I already have purple flowers for mine. I don't have ANY flowers for the bridesmaids... EEK!

Flower girl basket. SO pretty!

Place cards for bridal party and important family members. (Sorry about the lighting)

This will be inside the vases for the centerpieces. So the green foam doesn't show.

We will sprinkle these on the tables. (My dad loves them! LOL!)

I already had dark purple flower petals, but I wanted some green ones too. I found them!

Each table will have 4 candles on it.

 

Part of the favors

The green foam for the centerpieces. Hehe.

RIBBONS! We are using these on the bubbles and the favors.

Programs

My guest book. I will probably put something on the front to personalize it.

Some thank you cards for my upcoming bridal showers!! I can't WAIT!

BUBBLES!!!

BUBBLES WITH RIBBONS!!! My mom cut the ribbons and Matthew and I tied them on. (We used mini glue dots to keep them in place!)

I was playing around with my Paint Shop Pro Photo XI a couple of months ago. I came up with this monogram. But I don't know what to use it on!! I really love it though. Ideas??

So that's most of what we got. I also bought my shoes for the ceremony, but they are being dyed. So I will post pics of them when I get them. And my first dress fitting is this Sunday! I am SO excited!!

Well, there is more to come later. Keep in touch!

Much Love,

Weekend Planning

I'm so excited! I am going to my parents house for the weekend to work on wedding stuff with my mom. We have a whole list of stuff to do. YAY! We are going to work on centerpieces, programs, invites, veil, favors, flowers, food, etc, etc, etc. I'm hoping we can go to the cupcake place to try some flavors and maybe find a dress for my mom. 

Much Love,
