our day:)...or at least part of it

So I want to be able to remember as much about the wedding as humanly possible soooo expect LOTS of wedding posts.  Especially as the professional photos come in....The planning for our big day was only 4 months long.  We didn't want a long engagement because we I would've just kept adding and adding.  We didn't want to lose sight of what the day was about.  We also knew we didn't want it to be stuffy and boring, we wanted it to be fun and quirky, just like us....as you can see ;)

In our planning we wanted to have as many small touches as possible.  Which included a bunting banner and napkins made of old fabric that was my mom's and grandma's.  We (we being my mom, sisters and I, not Trent and I) will then make a wedding quilt.  I wanted our day to be as eco friendly as humanly possible! 

So we used vintage bottles, vases and books for centerpieces.  This was a. cheap and b. made a lovely looking table in my humble opinion c. allowed us to use items that our parents, grandparents and friends had collected over the years.  

We also have some very talented, creative people in our lives that helped make this day perfect!  Some of these great touches included some amazing work from my best pal, Jen.  Cute, right?!  She does some amazing amazing work, which you will get to see often!

We did thumbprint trees in summer and fall and they turned out perfect!  Big thanks to Killey, my sister.  She did a great job making my vision come to life:)

More to come on how it all came together and the greatness that was our day.  Hope you enjoy weddings, or this was not very enjoyable.
