ambreigh's Purple wedding

I still want to encorporate candles tied with ribbon somewhere..but still haven't found room in the budget to do so yet. We're going with a Texas-themed reception. So, the boots are something we've definately considered. The third picture is a diy sign and I think I'm going to make something similar so that guests at the reception and after party know which rooms are which. The basket in the 4th picture is similar to what I'm going to do. My finace's ex wife had two large tin buckets that were those candles that you use to get rid of misquitos (can't remember the name but you know what I'm talking about). We're going to melt out the wax and clean them up and polish them and then line them with material, ribbon and flowers to make them look similar to the 4th pic. The 5th pic is all the ribbon I've bought laid out next to the sample of purple that we know for sure is our color of purple for the bridesmaid dresses. The 6th pic is the centerpieces we're going with. The 7th pic is a collage of all the flowers we have -just gotta diy and put them together. And the last pic is from one of my best friend's weddings when she got married in December. Simple yet cute. They used regular cowboy boots and just placed random flowers in them. My son recieved 5 different pairs for his birthday and has already granted us permission to use them for decoration..yay!!!
