Vintage Rustic Wedding - Reception Table Decor

For our Wedding in April, we chose to have a different arrangement of objects on each table. For the base, a square of fabric, cut with pinking shears (for the zig-zag effect). Each table had a mason jar (some vintage, some new) with an arrangement of fresh flowers, with glass in the bottom. There was one vintage camera (all from my own collection), a bird or owl, and either a bird house or bird cage.










For our head table, I hand painted these wooden owl masks I got from Joann Fabrics.



The turquoise yarn bird I purchased at Target in their Christmas Closeout.



Each table setting had a tin of BBQ Rub, a CD of some great love songs I compiled, and a Wedding Mad Libs!

Jordan. You know what to do.

These are only suggestions for my photographer. Let's face it, sometimes you gotta hope for some moments to happen that just aren't planned.

If I get one of these - WONDERFUL! The last one is a big hope though.

There's a swing, but no bench like this... we can work with whatever we got. ha!

The Horse stables would be perfect for something like this.

We'll see how willing we are to get on the ground. hmm.

probably not gonna have the awesome car I'd hoped for. We'll see if we can borrow someones car for this.

Just........sexy.

I'm having a "photobooth" area in which a frame like this will be included... it's turquoise. yay!

SHHH!

Wedding Rehearsal and other stuff.

My parents' wedding anniversary was the night of my rehearsal dinner <3
I bought this cotton eyelet dress at Target, added Ribbon around the waist, paper flowers from Michael's and pearl beads... all hot glued!





I printed all of the wedding fans, cut them out and spray glued together with wide popsicle sticks from Michael's. Card Stock CDs I designed, printed, cut and folded. (with lots of help from Mom and Brooke!)

For the BBQ rub favors, I purchased the tins at Michael's, which came with printable stickers I designed. Also my recipe for BBQ rub!

Crunch time - 6 days!

Mom and Dad, Brooke and Nick, Mia, and Jason and I went to the ranch yesterday to do some setup. It went really well, and I'm just so excited to marry my Best Friend!


This is the stage for the band, in pieces

Decor: LOTS of cheesecloth, tissue paper poms, and chinese lanterns, and of course Birdcages!

Handmade Wedding: Signs, Favors, Fan Programs, Readings and Vows

The countdown to LOVE!

I can see a lot of life in you.
I can see a lot of bright in you.
And I think the dress looks nice on you.
I can see a lot of life in you.

Today, I'd just love to gush about how wonderful Mr. Percy is, and how much I look forward to becoming his permanent partner in crime... But I'd rather show you images!

I've been flipping (and flipping!) through images - looking for some inspiration for wedding photography, and possibly some last minute details. (like I need another thing TO DO!)

I wandered down the rabbit hole on {theknottybride.com} and was mesmerized by the lovely brides, grooms and photographs... ahh.








ummmm. Look at her CALVES! WOAH! This is SEXXXXXYYY.


hey! check out the flowers post (flowers! wooo!) to see why this image is here:




And as always, I find ideas everywhere.



I had originally imagined a garland running along the aisle from chair to chair. But the chairs don't quite work for that. So, I thought: Shepherd Hooks! Yay! Then, I discovered how expensive they are... I was about to chuck the idea all toghether, and I still may... If this doesn't work!
