Reception Table Cameras
We are going to have a disposable camera at each of the reception tables for the guests to pass around and take pictures with. There will be a card set next to each camera that reads:

Help us capture our memories!
Please use the camera on the table to take candid pictures of all our friends and family . . . the fun, the special moments, and of course, those not-to-be-forgotten shots. Pass the camera around, let everyone enjoy the fun. When all the pictures are taken, just leave the camera on the table.

Decoration
Flower Pomanders
I am planning to make some of these pomander/flower balls. They look great as pew decorations, and after the ceremony we can use them to decorate the reception.

Wedding Graffiti
I ordered some samples of this wedding graffiti from www.wonderfulgraffitiwedding.com. It looks great like someone painted it on the wall, but peels off easy without ruining walls. My fiance and I are thinking about ordering this one in our colors to put by the gift table as shown. I think it's a great way to thank the guests in addition to thank you cards, of course. Anyone interested should check out the website. They have many different options including monograms for walls or floor.

Graffiti reads "Our day is happier because you're here. THANK YOU" with bride and groom names underneath.

Bubbles
I do not really care to have rice or flowers thrown at me when leaving the wedding ceremony, but everyone insists we got to do something. So, I guess we'll be going with bubbles. I found these bubbles at www.favoronline.net for $0.19 each, I thought that was a pretty good deal.

Guestbook
AJ and I do not like the traditional guestbook because chances are it will end up going in a drawer. We think we would enjoy this idea of having guests sign matte to later go in a frame with a wedding photo. This way we can see our "guestbook" daily on a wall.

Wedding Favors
Candy and Magnets
We are thinking about putting Hershey Kisses (picture 1) in either small favor boxes or bags and tying ribbon on the outside to match our colors.

I am also thinking about putting little glass gem magnets in the favor bags (picture 2). These are easily made by gluing our names and wedding dates on the flat side, so it can be seen through the gem. And gluing a magnet to the bottom would make cute little refrigerator magnets for guests to bring home.

Cake
We like this cake minus the acorns. We are not going for an extravagant cake just something simple.

Reception Centerpieces
We like the centerpieces pictured here with the rectangular vases. The only difference would be having blue and green hydrangeas instead of white and green. I found these votives with the holders at www.candles4less.com for $69.99 which includes 144 candles and 144 holders. We want to surround the centerpieces with candles and also line the wedding party table with them.

I got this unity candle off here although I can't find who it came from. I am going to make one just like it but in my colors with the monogram in the second picture.

Flower Girls & Ring Bearer
My fiance and I are thinking about having two or maybe even three flower girls. One of my bridesmaids has three beautiful little girls and we would like to have one throw flowers, and the other two hold the "here comes the bride sign". There will only be one ringbearer, my fiance's cousin.

Photobooth Style
My fiance and I want to make these photobooth style, Save the Dates. Like this, only with us holding a sign in each picture saying save-the-date-May 16, 2009. They will be more informal, but that's more our style.

Groom and Groomsmen
This is what my fiance wants him and the groomsmen's attire to resemble, with the tie matching the shade of blue in the bridesmaids dresses.

Bridal Jewelry
These earrings are princess cut CZ, but I think they will go well with my ring. Also, my future husband's grandma has a small diamond tennis bracelet she wants for me to wear which I am quite willing.

Hair Style
I am torn between having my hair completely up or half up/half down. I like the idea of it being up out of my face, and not having to really worry about it going flat, or getting messed up. But, I have long, thick hair and it would look so pretty half up with all the curls.

Wedding Dress
I found this on a post on this website and I fell in love with it. I have not seen it in person, but this is exactly the style I want. It is a Sophia Tolli dress. Style number is Y2712 Skye.

Bridesmaids
I love these dresses!! They are the inspiration for our wedding colors too. If my bridesmaids do not like them, I am going to try to find a different dress in these same colors. We think these shades of blue and green look great together. My fiance and I plan to have every other bridesmaid in the blue then the green. We will have four bridesmaids. My maid of honor will be my sister, Shelly. My other bridesmaids include two of my best friends, Allison and Lisa, and my future husband's sister, Hilary.

The Proposal
Aj and I have been together since October of 2003 and our relationship has been so amazing. We both knew we would one day be married, and we've discussed our future frequently. We always said that when we were both out of college we would get married. Well, I graduated in May of last year, and he graduated May of this year. We started talking about getting married more and more. One night he could not keep it in anymore, and he told me he had bought a ring. But, he implied that it would be a while before I got it. About two weeks later, on Friday the 13th, we were watching movies we had rented. He was massaging my hand, when he just slipped it on my finger. He then popped the question, it was so unexpected all I could say was "oh my goodness, yes". He later told me he had not planned to propose on Friday the 13th. He planned to take me out somewhere nice and propose the next day, but the time just felt right!! I could not find a picture of the exact ring, but this is close.
