The planning threads are my favorite to read so I could not wait to post mine. I am about 2 months out but I wanted to post what I have so far. I did a lot already as you can see. I will update when I get more pictures. Enjoy!

I also bought silk fans for the chairs at the ceremony and plan on using Ecofetti with DIY cones. I bought candles and shells for the centerpieces in Mexico.
For the AHR, I bought branches from Manzanita Burlworks - Display & Jewelry Trees - Natural Red and plan on doing a seating tree for the seating cards. Once I am done with this I will post a picture.

I still am working on my Getting ready letter and the Welcome letter, which I will post too.
