AW: Tons checks - PIP Heavy

**Sorry for the double post for all the Sept 2011 knotties.**

- I booked a lakeside cottage on the property next to the venue for the night before and after the wedding.

- The bridesmaid dresses are in! 2/5 are already paid off, I am going to pick them up in a couple of weeks.

I have also had some time over the last week or so to work on some small DIY projects.

I made the corsages and hair pieces for the moms and grandmas.
My mother and my nana both wanted hair pieces instead, then I made two wrist and two pin ones.  They all look the same they just have different attachment pieces.







I attached a ribbon to tie them on to the wrists with.

I also made a banner to hang up in the lounge/lobby where the cocktail hour will be taking place.  It says "Better Together".







I also decorated the OOT Bags!
The front just says "Welcome to our wedding" with a picture of us on it.


3 of my bridesmaids are coming over tomorrow to work on some more stuff, so hopefully I will have more to share then.

I also updated my bio!

    I hate you (in the most scarcastic way possible) for having a. so much time b. so much creativity and c. imagination!! EVERYTHING LOOKS AMAZING!! Congrats on all the checks.. I suppose I can put my jealousy aside to be happy for you :) haha

    That is so awesome!  Everything looks great.  

    Niagara Falls--FI and I went there for a weekend trip a few years ago, it was lovely (and we were there in the fall, so it was chilly and a lot of the touristy stuff at the falls wasn't open).  Are you planning to go to the wineries in Niagara on the Lake?  That was a great part of the trip (FI is a big ice wine fan).  

    Also I love your siggy!  Our ice cream store just opened up for the season.  I'm a little ashamed to say it opened Saturday and I've only been once so far.

    p.s. I just checked out your bio. I saw you're honeymoon includes Niagara Falls. Have you ever been there? I used to live out in Buffalo. Feel free to PM me if you want any suggestions for excursions to the surrounding area. I miss being able to hop up to the Falls in 20 minutes. :) I'm going back to Buffalo for a friends wedding in Oct. and I am SUPER excited to go back up there. :)

    Thanks ladies.  Don't worry I don't have that much time on my hands, FI is absorbed in tax season right now, so I have nothing better to do when I'm not working and he is.  I love doing creative projects, 

    I can't wait to see all of your creations when you get them done!
