TammyB will become famous soon enough



Default For brides with blue or green as wedding colors

Ok, I'm not sure if any of you are located near an Ikea store, but I seen these today online and thought they would be perfect for around a cake. Just wanted to share the idea.. There only 1.99 for a 4 pack..

They have them in another color as well...

Good eye Tammy! Both Tasha & I are using similar colors. The only thing w/votive style candle holders is I think we might have a problem w/the candles getting blown out. I was originally thinking of doing votives, but am now thinking of making small luminarias for the tables. I got this idea from a knottie, can't remember her name. I would do mine w/velum in aqua blue.Click the image to open in full size.

Yeah I didn't think about them blowing out. Maybe they would be ok for those people who are having an indoor reception.

Oh for sure Sarah! I love being able to get feedback from this board on stuff like that. FI would be like "can I use one of those bags for my lunch?" Hahaha, I'm mostly kidding...mostly.

I am hoping that votives with tealights will be okay for the tables. Also, Christa I was told that we should definitely do tiki torches on the beach. If you're interested in sharing the cost of those, let me know.
