    [QUOTE]Congrats to everyone!!   I'm 2 questions away from finally booking the ceremony musicians.  I will be so happy to have it done.  I've also been working on a bunch of DIY projects (in my bio) and we sent our invites out on Monday (due to the A & B list thing).  People have been commenting on them and I'm so happy the hard work was worth it. Invites Sparkler set up And Chris is working on painting the wedding tree for our rehearsal dinner.  I did the names last night on the canvas.

    <div>I talked with my planner and she suggested the 10 inch ones because the walk out of our venue is so short.  She said she's done weddings with longer ones and they seem to take forever to light.  I ordered from Sparklers online where I got 288 (one "package") for $45 and free shipping.</div><div>

    Congrats on all the AWs today I am soo excited for all of our upcoming weddings!!

    Mine is only a little one but I have been drawing a blank for what to do with our sweetheart table for decor and I think I have finalized it.  We want to order these mugs:

    http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?navAction=jump&id=78404

    I havent decided if I want to do the letters L O V E or MR MRS and then fill them with white peonies and have candles all around them.  Sadly it is adding more to the budget just I really like the idea.

    What do you ladies think?

    Funny, I actually saw a wedding pic with this same idea.  They used LOVE.  I thought it was super super cute.  I actually just bought one of the mugs at the store for a Christmas present.  Very cute!  Do it if you can!!

    [QUOTE]Bobbileigh - those are cute!    I would go with LOVE if it were me.   You'd be surprised how much wedding "crap" (and I say that lovingly) you will have afterwards with absolutely no use for.  At least the LOVE mugs could be used and/or put on display in the future. :)
    Posted by Tiffany618[/QUOTE]
    I hear that! Luckily a lot of our stuff was Halloween decor that I either borrowed from my mom or purchased but can use again. But, I still have 100 plastic pumpkins, spray painted silver and 50 glass tealight holders. And that's just off the top of my head, I'm sure there's more!

    Oh I may want some of those pumpkins!  Halloween is my absolute most favorite holiday of all.  We are having our 1st annual Halloween Party this year.  I wanted to do it last year, but DH said I was crazy wanting to do it so close to the wedding.  Maybe (just maybe) he was right.  Would you want to sell some of them Anna?
