That's a thought. I never considered that I would be taking more of their time...definitely something to think about. LOL...about your FMIL!!

I'm looking forward to trying some crafty projects, especially if it can save me $$ in the long run.

If you're having a small wedding with about 10 guests, it's easy to through together a casual barbecue or something together beforehand to get everyone together and to give out the OOT bags. That was our intention, unfortunately we lost track of time and didn't have a weekend to spare!

What's great about a small wedding is that DIY projects aren't quite as daunting. It's much easier and less time consuming to DIY 10 programs than 50 or 100!
