Everything is so beautiful!! Did you learn the handwriting or is that your everyday script? I really love the map in your invitations and the handout for the rehearsal day and wedding day. How did you create those? I hope you have a fabulous wedding! Can't wait for pics!

helloerrbody

Thanks for the kind words! That is close to my normal handwriting but I did practice and copy calligraphy I like to fancy it up a bit. I have always had good handwriting and it is easy for me to imitate someone else's. The map was made in photoshop. You use google maps or mapquest to save a real map picture of the area. You open that as 1 layer in photoshop, then open a layer over it and draw the lines on the roads you need. I then found clipart I liked and added that in for the landmarks. The itineraries were just made in Word with text boxes and auto shapes for the lines. I use www.fotosearch.com to find all my clipart. If you give me your email address I will send you the itineraries and you can just change them to fit your schedule!

wow everything looks AMAZING!! you have outdone yourself! can't wait to see pics! i would also love to have the templates for your itineraries mgauthey at gmail dot com, if you don't mind i would also love instructions for how you made you cardbox- where did you get the boxes??

helloerrbody

Thanks Megs! I will send the itineraries right after I make this post. The fonts might not show up correctly if you don't have them downloaded to your computer. The scripty one is Black Jack from dafont.com. The boxes are hat boxes purchased at Hobby Lobby. They are thick brown cardboard and come in a set with like 6 boxes in all different sizes. My mom cut holes in the tops and bottoms of the 3 boxes I wanted to use with a razor blade/exacto knife, painted them with 2 coats of navy paint, and then hot glued them together. I used hot glue to attach the ribbon and flowers for decoration.

Thanks ladies! I will post pics as soon as we get back from the HM! I hope it all comes together as I am imagining. Either way, I will be married and happy. The tissue paper pomanders probably took as much time as every other project combined!!! Those things are evil!!!
