Palmtree99's Planning Thread...7/29/15


Recommended Posts

Thanks everyone! I can't believe I leave in 6 days! I'm the worlds biggest procrastinator so I still have SO much to do.

 

Guestbook:

instead of doing a traditional guest book, we are going to have everyone sign their name on a shell and put it in a vase. This way we can display it in our house. I got the vase for $3 at Michaels and I hot-glued rope halfway up it. Filled it halfway with sand and then everyone can put the shells in. I figured the shells would be scattered on the table in front of the vase. This is the vase full of shells:

Table numbers:

We have 31 guests so we only need 3 tables (two of ten and one of eleven). For the table numbers I got 3 white frames - sand pattern scrapbook paper from hobby lobby, and stick on numbers!

Love the shell guest book idea!!! I wanted to do something like this but others tried to talk me out of it. Plus I was unsure what to use to write with on the shells. Now I think I'll revisit doing this.

Enjoy!!

I'm officially married! My wedding was crazy but all in all it was an amazing day. My husband (weird to say that!) fainted twice during our ceremony which made for a lot of drama. I will post more pics of decor and such later, as well as lots for sale. :)

Oh wow - what an adorable couple you make! And congrats on being a Mrs! Poor guy - he fainted twice???? Definitely you need to pass on details. I'm sorry - I was busting my behind to get work done and get away for vacation just when you were getting ready to leave and I didn't wish you the best then.

 

Absolutely post photos as soon as you can. Your dress is gorgeous!!! And suits you perfectly!!
