The fiance proposed on Spring Break in March on a little getaway he had planned. You can see the proposal story on our website, here!
Since then, I've been busy busy planning like crazy since we decided on such a short engagement! Within the first month of planning I found & ordered my dress, found the venue, and began the oh so long list of important details. I don't want to give too much away, but I will let you in on a few of my projects. :)
My first to do was wedding party "will you" gifts. This was a lot of fun, but took some time! I scoured Michael's & Hobby Lobby for wooden boxes, the right color paint, tulle, lace, ribbon, etc. Here's what I came up with! I made these for my flower girls & bridesmaids. I think they turned out pretty cute!
Once I figured out what style of wedding I wanted {which is quite eclectic}, I began searching Pinterest & Etsy. I guess you could say it's a mix of vintage, modern, and trendy elements. I know it sounds weird, but I think it's going to turn out perfect. :) It's really coming together well with a lot of help from the florist and my sweet, patient mother.
Here's a little preview of the venue:
For the ring bearers, I decided to do something fun. Mustaches seem to be everywhere right now and I figured this would be an adorable "will you" gift for a couple of cute 4 year old boys.
Now, today I basically worked on thank you notes after an amazing shower on Saturday and I painted a few things. But, the thing I'm MOST excited about is the couple of gems I found in my parent's attic. I've been collecting some family heirlooms as decor for the wedding and I LOVE these. :)
Can't tell you what I'm going to do with them just yet! But I do have a few things on my mind.
