I thought I would save money by making my own invitations, but these cost quite a bit. The paper was by Envelopments, for the shells I braved the Atlantic ocean on a visit to Pompano Beach where we are getting married.

My placecard holders. Although we are only having 32 people, I felt the need to keep certain people from sitting together.

My Oot bags. I just bought gift bags from the Dollar store and cut a hole in the middle, then printed my wording on paper, attached vellum over that and glued into the bag. I used a small palm tree stamp on strips of matching paper and placed a strip behind it and glued. I replaced the handles with ribbon in my colors.

I used a stamp for the beach chair design.

My sister helped me make bouquets for the bridesmaids. UPDATE **I hated the original bouquets we made so I remade them about 6 times and this IS the final result.

My daughter is a hair stylist (I get to bring her with me) and she tried out a design.

Ok that's it for now. I am just praying that my dress is fixed in time. My seamstress ruined the chiffon. I go back for another fitting on Saturday.

I had the dress altered and she cut to much on the chiffon overlay on the skirt. It does not lay properly and I don't know how she is going to fix it. It took 4 months for the dress to get here and I don't have time to order another. The wedding is in 1 month and 2 weeks! I was so upset, but I'm thinking positive right now.
