So if you have been talking to me for the last few days, all I can talk about is my wedding, it's really sad and I am so grateful to the girls who put up with my running mouth. Thank you ladies.

So last night i was playing with my centerpieces and here is some mock ups with what I came up with.  I am still not 100% sure how I am going to do them but I really like what I did.  And I think I will use the lilly floating candles because they burned so nicely (as in they didn't look terrible after burning for 4 hours)

Here is the flower floating candle when it has first been lite.

These are called water beads, you put them in water and they expand! Super cool.  It's hard to tell but there are blue and white in there.  But I think we will just do blue.

Here was my first attempt arranging them.  I didn't like it so much.

Then I put ribbon on them, and I liked it a lot more. Obviously I would glue them not tape lol.

Now in a new arrangement with ribbon. No I don't like the bow.

Still look pretty cool after burning for 4 hours!

And I also picked up FI's ring last night.  I am so excited!  It looks so great!

    Oh thanks Elle.  They actually look super bad right now because I need to clean them. 4 of them have polish and the rest don't lol. 

    Thanks Jacyee! I love it too :)

    Ely- Thanks!  Yes he is.  But he wasn't in a good mood last night so he wasn't as excited as he could have been.

    Ray, I like the blue ribbon, but I'm not a fan of the silver bows.

    They turned out soo well! 

    And your rings are beautiful! I hope FI is more excited about it today. :)

    I love your centerpieces... gorgeous. Especially with the blue ribbon. I don't like the other color ribbon with it though. And I love your ring, it looks so similar to mine. I have channel set diamonds on the band and a violet sapphire. Have you looked at wedding band yet to go with it?

    LOVING those centerpieces!!  I agree with the other girls about the blue ribbon - big fan of that but not really the other color.  Where did you get the vases from?  I'm playing with centerpiece ideas in my head right now and want some sort of candle optioin so maybe something like those would work for us.  Or mason jars . . . Or something along those lines.

    Tarra- Thanks! I love them so much! 
    Elle- You rock!  Thank you so much!! <3
    Aud- Thank you!  Yes I think.  He said he tried it on this morning :) Cute!
    Nursey- Aw thank you.  I promise you don't want that though.  However my mom is pretty much awesome, you would want her :)
    MMP- I am not getting a band with it right now.  As it is I would have to have it custome made because of the shape.  I am going to get it on our 10 year or 5.
    Meg- I'll send you the link!!
    Yaga- I do.  It's an Eastern European thing.
    Danser- Thank you!!
