*warning* - this post is picture heavy!
So a little later than my normal post but I said I was going to blog every day in October and need to get a post out there.
The reason for my lateness- the wedding. My sister's of course, I'm nowhere near ready for any of those shenanigans!
I took Friday off of work, had a semi-awful experience of getting my nails done, packed up a lot of stuff and then took the train to Philadelphia. I met up with my mother and introduced her to Frozen, could you believe she hadn't seen it yet ?! My friend S, also joined us for the weekend- it was nice to have a buddy, and an extra pair of hands.
Saturday we made our way out to the wedding location, after stopping at Michaels, Target, a liquor store and Chick-fil-a. We put all of the place cards up, helped with a few other odds and ends, rested for a bit and then played at the rehearsal dinner.
Sunday brought a lot of wedding chaos and love. I had my hair and make-up done, watched the rest of the gals get the same, met some of the sweetest flower girls and had lots of fun times getting pictures taken.
The wedding was a blast- beautiful, romantic, touches of comic relief and lots of friends and family. They had a great photo booth, a cigar man, a band, DJ, two signature drinks (the names were L'Chaim Ball and Sweaty Pig) and so much more. I finally was able to show off all my crafts! And I even rapped my speech...
(all my crafts! )
Your boards are amazing!!! You know you could these on Etsy right??
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS day! What great DIY projects for the wedding!
ReplyDeleteVery creative, the boards gave a whimsical touch. Such a busy weekend and you still have time to post!
ReplyDeleteahh we will see- need more time in life if I wanted to start something like that, but maybe in the future? It's definitely a talent I didn't know I had but happy to have found it..
ReplyDeleteThank you! I found a lot of them on pinterest and just gave them my own flair but happy to know I could do it!
ReplyDeleteIt was a crazy weekend! It was nice to finally sit down last night and be able to write a post. Hopefully can give a better wedding post soon!
ReplyDeleteCute signs! Those are perfect! Also your handwriting is soo good!

haha thanks- my handwriting usually looks awful! My mom was so surprised my sister had asked me to do these because normally no one can understand anything I write... whoops!
ReplyDeleteGetting married next year. Love this post!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Pinterest was oh so helpful in so many aspects of my sister's wedding planning. A lot of these boards were inspired from things she had pinned. Good luck with the planning and crafting!
