Activity for PortlandBride

So this year I wanted to do something different. Since family knows we are engaged I wanted to ask my stepdad to be the one walking me down the aisle and all. Any ideas???

So I was going to make my own card box, but then.. I was at Goodwill this weekend, and I saw a bird cage. I am quite excited. I am going to repaint the stand, as its a little chipped, I thought I would do it bronze to go with my theme. At Christmas...

I've already seen a blog on this... but I love rings. Lets see those diamonds!

I am changing my theme around... Remember how I was looking at doing a 50's- 60's themed wedding and could not find a dress to wear that I loved... well I found it... Now I am having problems thinking about what to do with this theme... The music is...

Here are my babies...Tilly the striped one and Buster the black one. They are Maine Coons.

So happy, they are finally done. It took us a little while, a couple of hours here, a couple of hours there. But we finally got them done!

Got some pictures of my dress... although not of me wearing it. I need help for those ones. You'll have to excuse the colour, my flash is acting up. I still can't believe how fast I found this dress. I figured I'd start early so I'd have time, and...

My FH and I are having a small and quick ceremony, about 35 people, and should only take about 30 minutes. However, I don't want to people to have to stand the whole time, but I am not really sure how to do the set up with chairs, I can rent the...

I was thinking of making up a couple of these for the guest book signing (or at least guest book equivalent). But I am not sure if they are too cheesy/tacky?

I still have some trimming to do, this is just a prototype, and I need to find a better glue to use, but hopefully you get the idea. The ribbon on the second sheet forms a pocket for my inserts.
