real wedding: stephan and ronna, part 3

A cheesecake buffet and a bubbly exit, what a lovely way to end a wedding!  I hope you enjoyed all of the pictures :) They were all shot by Matthew Morgan and edited by me.  Enjoy your weekend! I know I will, especially cause I GOT A JOB!!!!!!  yaay! I start on Tuesday and am so excited! It is such a blessing from God because I know that there are a lot of other people out there still looking. For what it is worth I only found this one by going through a staffing agency! Anyways, I am excited :) Happy Friday!

A design student designed this. I love it.

lopsided

It is a bit lopsided (which will be solved by measuring out the tissue paper to exactly 10×5 rather than eying it…) … and yellow, rather than marigold… but it isn’t half bad :)

so close

So close it hurts people. J. Crew, grey peep toes with a bow! If only it wasn’t orange…. sigh.

yes

There is a tree right where our guests will turn into the reception parking lot. I am thinking white balloons and white initials… yes, I am liking this idea :)

busy busy

Hello! Sorry for the lack of posting today, I have been busy busy :) I had an interview today (crossing my fingers) and next it is grocery shopping (yay for ralph’s coupons!!) and maybe buying a new trash can at bed bath and beyond (thanks for the gift cert. future in laws!). I know, an exciting day. So what I will leave you with is a little preview to a real wedding coming up, one that involved… you ready? RAIN. Yep, out of the like, 2 days a year it rains this girls wedding day was one of them. But they never stopped smiling! I will post the entire thing later on, and you don’t want to miss it! It involves rain, black and white mix matched bridesmaid dresses, a cheesecake buffet and bubbles :) Images by Matthew Morgan.

programs

And last but not least the program mock ups. These are only vaguely similar to what the real ones will look like. The real ones will be one size bigger (the covers will be out of A2 paper and the inside will be half of than 11×17 sheet), the covers will be grey, and the type will go up and down so that it opens up left to right, rather than top to bottom. This was one where I tried to get it all to fit on half of a sheet of 8.5×11 paper and it just wasn’t fitting. There will be 4 panels. The Party will list everyone in the wedding party and the parents. The ceremony will list the officiant and then the order of service. Special thanks will be a little note from bryan and I and The reception will have the name and address of our reception location as well as a map. This will save me from having to print a whole other card for the directions to go in our invitation envelope. We have a website as well but last we checked only like 17 people had looked at it :)

label mock up

I love the look of the wrap around label. I know there is a template from Martha out there but I went ahead and made my own. Again it needs some tweaking, a little more design to it, but it is pretty much there :) I can’t decide if I should print it onto sticker backed paper or on regular paper and then just buy one of those Xyron sticker machines. How did you do yours?

Note, the envelope will be grey, but blue was the closest I had :)
