*flashtastic* my wedding is tomorrow :-)

psycho_jo, 23 August, 2012 at 09:03 Posted on Planning 0 22

Been promising myself that I'd get round to flashing some ideas from my wedding as I have found other Hitchers' ideas so helpful. Finally got round to it...the day before I get wed! Thought it might be a nice calming thing to do and will give me some 'me time'!

My Save the Date - made in Andy Goldsworthy style at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park where we're getting married.


Invitations. Handmade by me. Heart is embossed and had stamper made for names and date. Got banners off ebay.


Table plan - frame from Ikea. Bargain at £15! The pics are Rob Ryan (the papercut artist) prints.

    Thanks! Glad it's proved some inspiration so far.

    So the venue - The Yorkshire Sculpture Park. Here's a pic from outside.


    Balcony along one side. Restaurant is upstairs with glass all along one wall looking over the park.


    Inside: will be having chair covers and silver sashes

    The dresses...Mum has made them all.

    My dress pattern - without sleeves and with added sparkle. Not got pic of real thing on phone.


    Oops this one is a bit big. Two of the BM dress. They have sashes which is the bit of material on the hanger.

    Candleabras (will have candles in obv!)


    More Rob Ryan papercuts framed. They're actually greetings cards. Loved them plus colours go so they're going on guest book table!


    Guest book. There are lots of blank spaces between the photos of art.


    Menu cards to go in clear prism menu holders


    Jars and vases for pick n mix. Haven't got a pic since I filled them with sweets. Gave up sweets at Xmas and so I can't wait to tuck in tomorrow!!!


    Place cards. Hand embossed hearts which I then cut out and put on with those sticky foam things.

    Inside is written what the guest is eating as they had a choice and will prob forget.
