Wedding Flowers
DIY
A friend of mine will be doing my flowers. I will help her just a little but mainly she will handle everything
We played around macking mock bouquets, bout. and corsages I was able to go to a local floral wholesaler at the end of the week and buy some flowers that they were going to get rid of and use those to play around with. All in all I was happy with the result. Ive decided not to use the calla lillies in my bouquet as I didnt like how it looked with them Im doing my own centerpieces im and really happy with those. |

Hostess
Dresses...all different
I decided early on that I definitely didnt want my hostesses to have to spend a ton on their dresses
So I turned to one of my favorte sites...ebay. I was able to find 3 of the 4 dresses that I needed on that site (The 4th girl went out and found hers on her own) 2 of the dresses I won on ebay for $5 plus shipping of $15 each and the last dress I just won early this week for $1 plus $15 shipping. So I ended up with 3 dresses and only spending a total of $56 all together. All of the dresses are in Sage green which is what I wanted as my BM are all wearing Choclate Brown |

Monogram Cake Topper
DIY
Another DIY project I tacked
This one wasn't too bad I ordered my wood letters (very cheap...my total with priority shipping was around $12 - I think) I then painted them in a metallic brown. After doing this, I glued individual rhinestones onto the letters in my wedding colors. I am very pleased with how the letters turned out. |

Favors
Ive known for a while exactly what I wanted to use as favors.
When deciding on favors, my first question to myself was "out of all the weddings Ive been too, which ones had favors that I can even remember..." Well of all the weddings...I could only come up with one. A friend of mine ordered Large Cookies that were the same shape and color of her actual wedding cake. I thought it was the prettiest thing. In addition to that, I love edible things. If it taste great, and looks pretty. It gets a thumbs up from me. With that said.....I decided upon Caramel apples. It goes great with my wedding colors, they taste good, and with the chocolate drizzle....they're pretty darn cute!! |

Table Numbers
I decided against the normal table number on a piece of paper sticking from the top of a metal stand.
Instead I decided to incorporate more of the green that I am using in my wedding and I attached rhinestones to faux apples to use as my table numbers. I will hang the apples from the metal stands instead of paper numbers. |
