Looks great! What color will your linens be?
The centerpiece mockup is really nice! I love the height, the cute flowers and the bling!
Your invitations are cute--how did you do them (did you have someone design or are they total DIY?)
I like everything except the hanging crystal things. I think they are very beautiful and looks like a pro did it. So I say good job!
@lattelove
They are DIY Programs from BRIDES at Michaels, and i just made them into invitations and added a green peice of paper behind the flower.
@ Baileyh Where can I find those branches? And how much did 1 branch centerpiece typically cost you?? Thanks
You did a fabulous job! Both the centerpieces and the invites are gorgeous! I'm planning to do a similar centerpiece with curly willow. Where did you get the small flowers? They are adorable.
@bailey
GREAT invites...what is this program maker thing called? and if you don't mind me asking how much is it (about)? maybe that is what I need!! they look so good! what all did you buy/use for them??
also, what did you use for the centerpiece bling? love it!
Hey ladies...so here is a break down of how i did everything, i just find everyone is asking similar questions.
I got the branches by posting on craigslist that i need curly willow and witch hazel. I got all the branches for 20.00 and i was allowed to fill my car pretty much.
The crystals i plucked off an old chandalier. I have also ordered extra from ebay, I got 60 small plastic crystals for about 30.00 all said and done. (shipping etc)
The Ivory flowers i also got off of craigslist. I got a HUGE bouquet for 30.00. I have seen these at Michaels though, they are just silk cherry blossoms. My cat has been tearing the flowers off though, so the loose ones im a going to glue to the curly willow.
Obviously...fishing line for the strings. Vases were from COSTC) :) for 15.00 each. but my workplace bought them and i am just borrowing them for the day :) Rocks, i actually bought (go figure) for 15.00 from a landscaping/gardening store.
Invitations were purchased from Michaels as well. They were in the discount bin so i got 80 programs for 30.00. In the box with the BRIDE invitations, programs etc is a website link for templates etc and how to make them. I just changed all the info for a program to my invite :) The cut our flower is part of it and to tie in the green a just cut out some green paper and glued it behind. The smaller font is "Twilight" and the larger is "Edwardian" (I AM NOT a Twihard...it just so happened to be awsome :) I actually bought a whole bunch of invites from a girl off of craigslist as well. I used the envelopes from them to cut the green and then slid a sleeve of the green on to my new envelopes for my invitations. Those invites im actually going to use as the program and the menu for each table. I will have pics of those up when the time comes :)
I hope this helps.
Centerpieces...over all...about 5.00 each
Invitations .37 each with out postage and ink cartridges,
