great idea...Sarah that would look really cool

oh okay, I think I figured it out. thanks

she loves it, my cousin lives around the corner so its really easy for her to see my cousins little boy.

really, weird, my mom just bought her house and moved in a few weeks ago. You could come over for the slumber party!!

well you will be in a different time zone, so if you start drinking at 10:30 pacific time...ahh whatever go ahead and drink whenever you want.

okay silly question when I download a font where do I save it so it will be in my programs?

looks great, I think it would be really nice to do that.

one of them let it slip, I think we are getting pedis and manis that early, but either way the wineries are about an hour away, so if we leave at 9:30 we won't get there until 10:30 or 11.

Sarah, can you upload the Angelina or tell me where I can find it. I have the scriptina but like the Angelina too.

thanks Sarah.

I do have great BM's they have been planning and plotting for a while. I am the first to get married so I guess I lucked out. Now I will have to really be creative for them.

Amy I have always found HP's to be trustworthy. I just got the new 6100 all in one and you can run it wirelessly, so when I am at my laptop I just press print and it begins printing in the other room. I love it Karla, those invites are amazing.

crash away!!

what is the font you use...its so great.

great job Sarah...you are the queen of DIY for sure.

Jill those are awesome, I am so glad that he loved the pics, but also that you were able to catch his reaction. You obviously did a great job Leigh.

I finally got my own invite in the mail...my best friend made them and I think they turned out cute. I am so excited about my party, my friends are planning exactly what I wanted to do....I have such great friends.

I thought I would start a thread, mainly just for my own organization, but who knows someone might come along and want to do this also. The day after our wedding we are doing a wine tour with our friends and family. we are chartering a bus and going to 4-5 wineries and stopping for lunch at one of the wineries. I have been able to negotiate some great rates for private tastings and some tours about $10 for most. So all together the day will be about $60 and we will be able to taste 4-5 wines at each winery and many will be giving our guests glasses to take home. I am so excited about this I think its going to be a fun relaxing day with all of our friends and a great opportunity for me to still have a destination feel for my wedding. So far we are going to start around 10:30 leaving our hotel on the charter bus. The bus will take us to a private tasting/tour at V. Sattui and then after that people will be able to roam around V. Sattui for about 45 minutes to eat lunch at their deli or go to the gift shop. Then we will head next door to my FI's favorite winery, Franciscan. After that we will head to Diamond Oaks and then we are still working on the other 1-2 wineries. I will post the winery info as well as the charter bus info.

Sarah what are you doing for annoucements? If I am sending invites to everyone, I don't have to do annoucements afterwards right?

thats a great idea. thanks for sharing.

Sarah, this is what my first mock up looked like. just so you visualize the idea.

oh I would not want a bubble stain. I like the idea of bells instead. my flower girls and ring bearers will have bells walking down the aisle, why not when we leave too.

those look amazing, honestly people are going to be shocked you made them yourself and didn't pay to have them made.

they look great. I like all the brads and the sparkly look to the paper. and the ribbon in front is great. we have a band going around ours and there is a little circular thing with our monogram on it to cover the place where the two ends meet? could you do something like that if you are still unsure about the brads.

so are you supposed to do this when you leave the ceremony? or is it for the reception? I don't remember what they are supposed to be used for.
