DIY Wedding
Sooo tired of ironing!!!

Hi ladies!!!! I've been missing in action, my iron has taken me hostage. Ugh, so tired of ironing. So far I have done 24 table runners, 125 chair sashes. 3 table cloths and 15 chair covers. 117 more chair covers to go. I shouldn't complain, Philly has done as much if not more than me. He's been amazing. But I am soooo ready for it to be done!!!! Just had to whine for a little bit. :)

One week from tomorrow, it will all be worth it!! The forecast is showing 96 degrees and sunny. I wish it was going to be a little cooler, but so far, no rain!!! Keeping my fingers crossed for that.

I ordered the popcorn for the late night snack today, and am almost done with the kids bags. Besides that, everything is done!!!

The rehearsal is next Friday, and we will decorate the reception venue after that, then decorate the ceremony venue early Saturday morning.

Finalized all the catering bars. We stuck with the taco bar which includes tacos and all the fixings, chicken enchiladas, beef burritos, mexican salad, spanish rice, refried beans, chips and salsa and cinnamon crisps. We also added ham, turkey and chicken salad sandwiches and chips. Then there will be fruit and cheese and crackers available all night. We finalized all the soda and beer. So relieved after we did all that. :)

Family will start arriving Tuesday, so exciting!!! Philly and I are having a "date day" tomorrow, just the two of us all day, as things will start getting crazy next week, so we wanted to have time for just the two of us.

I hope all of your planning is going well!!!

Make sure to hang them on hangers afterwards! You can do 3-4 per hanger. Sorry for the ironing blues. I know it will turn out lovely!

All of the hands on work can be taxing, but it's so worth it. You'll feel really good about all of your hard work when you see it finished and everyone's enjoyment.
