New DIY soon :)

Hey everyone!!!

So I'm actually starting to pin point exactly

what I'm going for on my wedding day.

I know it's a whole year away, but since I want to

DIY alot of the decoration and accessories,

a year will barely be enough time. hehe.

So, we have a venue!!!

Union Hill Inn!!!

Also, I picked out my colors!!!

I will be using royal blue and bright green!! Check out

my centerpiece picture below for the green

I plan on using. Here's a picture of the blue.

PS...I also want this as the flower girl dress.
{from giselleboutique} picture is a link.

Also, I've decided on chalkboard mason jars as escort cards

and as their favor to take home. DIY!! But no paper tag, just a nice

pretty piece of chalk.

My centerpieces! Which I will DIY nearly for free!!

I have manzanita in my front yard and the venue comes with

large mason jars for the base!! Also, I found an AMAZING wholesale

wedding website where I can get 200 rhinestones

for 8 bucks. When I do the tutorial I'll put the link up for you guys.

Instead of individual programs, I want to make

something like this for the outside of the

chapel. 

The program can sit on the drink table that will be outside the chapel!

The wedding is in June, so it may be hot and

we don't want anyone too thirsty :)  The venue also comes with

tons of drink dispensers like this.

Instead of having a guestbook, or in addition too, I

LOVEEE the idea of a thumbprint tree.

Especially since our centerpieces are trees...I sense a theme here...

also, another DIY. My mom is an amazing artist,

I'm sure a tree would be a piece of cake for her to draw.

Also, NO individual dinner menus. Those can get very pricy and are so

unneccesary.  And since my venue comes with a HUGE chalkboard that

looks very similar to this (did I mention I love my venue?!) I will be putting the menu

on this :) For all to see. Maybe on the guestbook table? Idk yet.

Okay, enough of the pictures.  Since I pretty much am on track

with where I should be in the planning process, I think

I need to start focusing on the little things.

Such as the engagement party (which my MIL is throwing),

the engagement photo shoot with our AMAZING photographer,

and creating decorations/photo props for the party and shoot.

I also am going to use an amazing idea to ask my

bridesmaids to be in the wedding :) 

Ring pop..to pop the question. AMAZING. I'm so excited to do this.

I'm using an amazing website, theknot.com, to help me with

inspiration, planning timeline, and vendors.

I need some followers, so spread the word people!!!

Have a great day, talk to you all soon!!
