I have been working on rose petals. She wants them laced with green so each one has to be done by hand-they don't take dye. I tried that. I am doing about 10-15 a day. Boy it makes your eyes crazy! Now I am looking for ideas to decorate the pews at the church-she has picked an old fashioned white church with wooden pews. It has the old steeple & all. She just wants somethng simple! Hope I find it soon!

Ashley, Mike & I went to the courthouse to get the license last week-another biggy crossed off the to do list!! Now back to doing more rose petals! Ashley has a friend who may want me to do her silk flowers for her wedding next year-maybe this will turn into a new line of work for me!Whooooo hoooo!

We have one month left to finish. I have ribbons to put on the corsages, petals, to tint, candles & beads to out together, & pew flowers. I think I found my dress but have to ask Ashley if she thinks it is what she wants. So much to do so little time.

Congratulations to your daughter! My daughter is getting married in June of next year. We've booked the place and ordered the dress but there are so many other things, big and small, to do. And the expense! We're trying to spend a reasonable amount and it's still costing too much. One thing we're doing that you might also find helpful is to start purchasing things now so it's not so much at one time. Because we started looking at dresses way ahead of time we were able to wait until the one my daughter wanted went on sale. We found invitations and favors clearanced at Walmart for a quarter of the regular price. Saving on as many items as possible starts to add up over time.

I misread and thought the wedding was next year. Oh my goodness, it's this year! You have been really busy getting this all together in such a short time. So disregard my information about purchasing ahead of time. lol

The wedding is this next weekend! I have pew decorations to finish, feathers to put in Ashley's head wear, table decorations to assemble (candles in holders with beads), potato salad to make on Friday, etc. I know I am forgetting something!! And I am soooooooo tired!

I finished the pew decorations, put more feathers in the head piece, put the candles together, got the candles for the apple decorations, now all I think I have left is to make the potato salad for 150 people!

The wedding was Saturday & pretty much went without a hitch. Well except the grrom locked the keys in the car so when his friends went to get them at the house they decided to mess with it! They took all the labels off the canned goods, put rice on the ceiling fans, turned the furniture over, rubber banded the sprayer on the kitchen sink, & foamed the sinks. Ashley called me at 11PM to tell me all this! 
Here are just a couple of my favorite shots!

Yes that is me in the first picture with Ashley! Everyone tells her we look alike! It doesn't seem to bother her. Does that mean I look ok?!? HAHA! The friends did not come back of course! I drove by yesterday & the tp is still in the trees! Kristin-you'll do great! The day just seemed to float by. All went great! Yes I am glad it is done!
