The End!
Wedding Photos!
I am proud to say all the hard work and relaxation has paid off!
I will be going through and adding photos to each section below of decorations, cake, some flowers, etc. I hope anyone who has come to this point gives you good advice and you ENJOY IT!!! I loved every minute of my wedding and it seems so silly now at how nervous I was! I could hardly stand I kept saying "oh my gosh I'm getting married!!!" I was ok once I saw Matt standing at the end of the aisle waiting for me. I did so well and only cried a tiny bit ( I couldn't risk messing any makeup up). I love being married the best is yet to come........ Check out the photos and comment or steal ideas :) |

Busy!!!
No Time to Procrastinate!
I am so glad my mom got on me about little things early on! I have been running into small stuff that I hadn't thought about and would never have remebered these last couple of days! My huge piece of advice for everyone who does not have a wedding planner: Start as early as you can with everything and just make up your mind!
I know it's only 2 days away and I would be stupid to change everything but I have stuck to my colors and style of wedding since December. I am so thankful. I have a lot to do but not as much as some so close to the date. With family arriving and house chores to keep up with I feel like I have managed my time well and have had stress to a bare minimun (not completely stress free unfortunately). Although, my period started today!!!!! I got the pill to time my period perfect... 7 days out on the day of the wedding with 24 days till the next cycle... ha ha not for Kellie. My aunt flow decided to skip itself completely and start today! I want to shoot myself but I am loading up on the bc just for 2 days so it is gone on the wedding night! That's the sacred night I have to control :) This may be my last post for a few days so wish me luck!!! Thanks for everyone's advice and help! |

DIY:
Vellum Labels
Set up a document on Word and put 5 of the same thing in a column on a table, using text boxes to get the right sizes, for labels.
I got this textured Vellum on sale at Michaels, 10 sheets in a pack for $1.99. It is water resistant and my mom's office has a laser printer so the ink won't smear if it gets wet. I figured living in Vegas we will need to have tons of ice and that tends to melt outside, I think they look cute. Peeling the old labels off is a whole other story! |

Fudge
15lbs!!!
So today my mother-in-law and I sat down and made 8 sheets of fudge. That's about 15lbs of ingredients! In one of my earlier posts I said how we were filling the boxes with homemade fudge with white chocolate on top, dyed green. Well it is all made as of today. Fudge is known for its everlasting taste so 2 weeks of sitting and setteling it shoud taste great on the wedding day! I filled up 99 boxes of square cut pieces and ribbons are tied, only 241 to go!! It was a lot of fun making.
13 days........ wow! so close! |

Ring Bearers Pillow
DIY
I bought a pillow for like $5.00 on clearance from Party City, sewed on the ribbon around the pillow and then sewed on a piece of ribbon in the middle. With my ribbon tieing expertise I made a bow and took some skinny ribbon and tied it around the thred under the bow over the band of the pillow. The pillow shouldn't fall off of his hand and he can't mess up the ribbon because I used hot glue to keep everything in it's place!

T-Shirt Diner
Soon to be shirt.
Went to the T-Shirt Diner today and had this made for $28. Yeah it's way more than I should have spent but the shirt is by American apparal (I love that brand) and they let me pick the font and as many characters as I wanted. It's my new favorite shirt!

Gift Table
Receiving a lot of gifts!
This is our gift table. We just took 2 banquet tables and some table cloths, with my card box of course, and set it up behind the aisle. It was easier to have it there then by the entrance/exit....
