My DIY's
Hello, thought I'd add some pictures of some DIY project I (and my family) has been working on!

Picture 1 - the "Ellie Bag" is not a DIY - I bought it off of etsy.com for $10. It is for my flower girl to keep all her "goodies" together on the day of the wedding! What a steal.

Picture 2 - My large "J" - I traced this and my dad cut it out. It is for in front of our backdrop behind the head table. I cannot believe how great it turned out.

Picture 3 - I found this picture at my fiance's house. I had drawn it for him a couple of years ago as a present. I decided to grab it and use it for my "homebaked goods snack table.

Picture 4 - Ring bearer pillows - my mom did the sewing and I did the bow. I cannot believe how great they turned out also!

Picture 5 - I accidentally uploaded this picture of our dog, Riley, but I can't figure out how to delete it! haha So, this one is just to enjoy!

Soon, I add some pictures of our table runners we made!

Wedding Decoration
Backdrop Behind Head Table
Hello Ladies,

I was wanting to know if anyone was putting a backdrop behind their head table and what they were doing?

My reception venue is pretty plain, but needs something behind the head table for picture purposes. I like clean lines so I am not a fan of the drapping fabric. Oh ya, and I'm close to going over my budget, so it has to be cheap! :)

My only idea so far was to but black bed sheets and somehow make a back drop with them and then try to make a large "J" for our last name to hang in the middle....

What are you all doing for your backdrops?

Programs!
I wasn't going to make programs, but fogot that I had asked a couple of my little cousins to hand out programs at my beginning stages of the wedding planning........so........I decided to just do them myself. They are turning out great and I am loving them. I have 30 finished and about 120 to go!

For those of you that are making programs, are you making them for everyone of your guests? I figured on making enough for about 75% of our guests that are coming.... I figured not everyone would take one and the kids won't take one.

We have 124 people coming so far from Response Cards! Yaaay!

Bridal Party Gifts
Suggestions Wanted!
Hello Ladies!

What are you all getting the people in your wedding?

So far, this is what we have...

Bridesmaids - earrings, I was wanting to get them a bracelet to wear, but can't find one within my price range that I like. I also thought about a picture frame and I could give them a picture from the wedding to put in it later? Any suggestions for this?

Groomsmen - coolers, this was my FH idea... he's all about the practical gift giving :)

Flowergirl - bracelet, flower girl book

Ring Bearers - little footballs, one is 2 and one is 7... he 2 year old's football is called "pee wee" size and the 7 year old's is a "junior sized" football. I think we will write a little message on the football.... My FH played football in college and the little guys think he is the greatest thing on earth because he played in college :)

Wedding Day "Helper" / Aunt - a bottle of her favorite wine - she will probably need it after that day!!

Parents - NO CLUE!! I need help with this one!

What are you all getting your bridal party?

Engagement Picture Teasers
My photographer put some "teasers" on facebook for me to preview... I thought I would share a few with you all... She did an absolutely wonderful job!

She is also doing the wedding and I can't wait!!

Picture 1 is with our dog, Riley... she didn't make it in many pictures because she was a "Marley" from "Marley and Me" that day... for those who have seen the movie know what I am talking about!

The ice cream pictures are at a Jefferson City, MO favorite - Central Dairy...a local ice cream parlor...delicious!

Our First Dance
Suggestions Needed
So the FH and I have spent many nights trying to find a first dance song that we both like. He is a country fan and I just want something that is "us."

We toyed with having the choreographed first dance because my FH's cousin teaches dance classes and was a dancer in college, but I think my FH has a bit of a romantic side, and wants the slower first dance. Hmm.... decisions, decisions!

Does anyone have any suggestions? What songs are you all dancing to?

Shoes
My secret obsession!
I found my wedding shoes! They are beautiful and I must have pictures of them on the wedding day! They are silver, which I think will still look fine with my dress... I have to try them on together yet!

i LOVE shoes!

Also, wedding pictures are coming up on April 16th - sooo excited about them!

OH YA - I have a job for next school year! I was offered a 6th grade position last week - I am sooo excited about teaching the kiddos and I am so happy that finding a job is one thing marked off my list of "to do's."

Wedding Plans
I am BACK!
I am ALMOST finished with student teaching and about to get back at it for the wedding plans! I have not done anything for the wedding (which is exactly 4 months away) since the beginning of January! I am kind of having withdrawals! haha!

One problem that has occurred though...my cake lady (who I did not get a contract from yet) emailed me the other day to tell me that she was having some personal and family problems and would not be able to make my cake. I am kind of bummed because now I have to search for a new cake making person! Hopefully, it will all turn around... at least I get to try some more cakes!!!

Wedding alterations are coming up and I need to get on my invitations! Oh, still to come!

I also had my first teaching interview the other day! I thought it went well...so MAYBE I will actually have a job next year! :)

You girls are the best!

I am so excited about this place! I originally wanted to have my reception here, but it does not seat enough people that we will be inviting. It has a beautiful view of the capital of Missouri. The last picture is a picture of the large wall, that used to be the stage for the Opera House that was here, that they use as a projection screen. I cannot wait to use this for a slide show of cute baby pictures of my FH and I!

We are trying to make our wedding as personal as possible. We want people to walk away from our wedding saying, "That wedding was perfect for those two," and "that was soo much fun!"
