Wedding Plans
Do you ever feel like this?
I have for sure...esp when I was
working!
With just a tad over a month to go
it hit me that we have so much
to do for Amber's wedding.
And working on a shoe string budget
you get creative ( my bag of tricks)...
Amber mentioned the other day that
she needed to get the guest book,
I found this on Pinterest and showed
her this.
The new guest book!
You use a write paint pen and
folks sign this instead.
Yep...I have to get busy since
I will
be throwing this together.
I need to locate cake pans...
when I found out how simple
the cake was going to be I
agreed to make it.
It will not have fondant but just
butter cream icing, probably
not even smooth like this.
Ribbon, Ambers color, will
go around the base of each layer
and we will stick some of her
flowers on each layer.
Simple.
But then I wondered how we
should display it.
So now I will be making
one of these boxes to set it on.
I picked up these glasses at Goodwill and
I was going to put Bride
and Groom on them with
frosted spray stuffy.
These were 99 cents each.
But yesterday I stepped into the
Goodwill closest to me and
look what I found!
1.98! No chips or anything.
In need of cream color table clothes
and I found this one for 2.99
at Goodwill.
Amazing, not tears, no stains!
We figured we would just do the
mismatched sort of look.
But since we were needing so
many in a short time I
posted on FB
to my Nashville friends asking
if anybody had some we could
borrow!
I got a special private message from
a long time childhood friend
whose daughter married in Nov.
She has 31 tableclothes
round and retangle just like
we need. She offered them
to me to use.
Pic below.
Amazing when you have life
long friends!
They are there for you.
I am also doing the arrangement
for the bride and groom table.
I am doing something like
this.
Speaking on Goodwill....
this is what happens when you
are crusing down the
aisle and looking at things
on the shelves!
BAM!
Pole in the way!
Also....nice....
I got these there, red tag which is
99cents the day I was there.
Marked 4.99 regular!
Enough wedding, enough Goodwill...
I ran in Dollar General the other day
and I saw these...
I love them.
I got them, they came two to
a pack, thought I could have
my washclothes on them to dry
when I am done with my shower.
But they also work great for
holding my razor.
Plus..they add fun to my shower!
Check out this adorble lamp.
My friend Debbie gave me
this for my bday.
I placed it in my kitchen window over
the sink.
Speaking of which....she mentioned
it was my bday at
Olive Garden.
Wasn't that sweet!
Yesterday and today....
80 degrees with a nice
some what coolist
breeze.
Yep, time to put the boots
away!
Hoping each and everyone of you
have an amazing Tuesday...
I need to clean....
yikes!

Love your birthday treat at Olive Garden. That rocks.
It's ever so cold here today. We are having some freezing temps and it should be over by Thursday.
Have a fabulous day, Pam. ♥
You could also create a hashtag so you can easily find all the pictures wedding guests post to social media.
My fatty heart slowed down just reading it. I forgot it took an entire stick of butter. Ugh... I didn't reserve all the 'gravy', though, and it is so tasty over egg noodles. Oh, and I forgot to mention that the joke at the start reminded me of Palaye Royale. Drummer Emerson Barrett has turned the eye roll into an art form. Ha!
I wish I could put boots away, it is still raining here and we are waterlogged!!
Take care Diane
I love all the stuff you're doing for the wedding. We had everyone sign a photo mat at our wedding instead of a guest book. We framed a black and white wedding picture with it. I LOVE it! A few of the people have died since then, but we still have what they wrote to us on our wedding day out where we can see it every day. I think something that you can display on a wall is way better than a guest book.
And great finds. Thanks for coming over to MGypsy. Loved your comment and always happy to see you there!
it was 80 here at the jersey shore and my body reacted terribly to the heat!!!
