    ...

    The place cards were pieces of birch with names carved into them. Our theme was birch and blue with a hint of rustic

    Groomsmen and Groom

    Our dog came for a few photos, this is where he was trying to eat my flowers.

    @FutureMrsBondo Everything from our invites, signs and place cards are Honey Script Font. Super cute font, love it.

     

    The Flickr idea was from Weddingbee. We have 633 photos up on that Flickr account from guests. It was one of the best decisions of the wedding.

    Here is a better view of the signs:

    Beautiful pictures!  I love the blue against the rustic setting.  It contrasts and compliments it well :) 

    Your dress is beautiful, and I love the flowers on your cupcakes!  Are they sugar flowers or real?

    Thanks! Since so many of your like the escort cards, here are a few more photos (sorry, I love photos in general - u can tell me to stop). 

    Something you probably can't see in the other photos is that the vases for the centerpieces are wrapped in birch as well.

    (There were several different dead limbs we used for the escort cards. That is why some are plain and some are marbled)

    @MissKatelyn: We actually made the escort cards with a special routing machine. I had looked into using burning tools, but was unable to make the names look nice. Since you probably do not have the routing machine ($$$) I would suggest purchasing round clear labels, print on the labels from your computer and then stick them on the wood.

    We had to do that for 2 of the labels. I was putting table numbers on the back (2 days before the wedding) and found out we had forgot to make 2 escort cards. We didn't have enough time to use the machine, so we used labels. No one noticed - they blended right in!!!

    @husky: Thanks! It is a french bustle, what makes it look different is the sash, because it is also bustled.

    The sash added a lot to the dress.
