Look what I saw at the Birdal Fair!
Well ladies, We saw SOOOO many great Ideas! Here's what I REALLY liked!
We have decided instead of an archway we will rent something like 2 rod iron pedistalls on both sides of us, and we will have this arrangement (but bigger) on both pedistall and we will say our vows in between! Does that make sense?
We have decided the theme is gerber daisies in fall colors! I couldn't be more happy!we may use different colors instead of the red for the flowers!
And, I saw this awesome brown suite, decided to take a picture so Dave could see. He's not sold on it. But he said he would try it on! So thats good! I just thought it woud go so well with the Bride's maid dresses. I'lll include that picture as well!
This is the color again, of the BM dresses. Not the style!

The flower arrangement is beautiful. Glad to hear that you found a lot of what you were looking for at the fair.

I love the vases! Start looking for them now!
If you have a stream or river around you go look for rocks and put them in a bleach bath to get them clean. I have did this tones of times and then return the rocks after I used them.

I love the arrangements I think they will look great. The brown tux is really nice too. I am not sure I have ever seen one before.

Jayme....I saw some perfect vases tonight at Target and I thought of you!!! They aren't exactly shaped like the ones in the picture, but they look similar and they are nice and big. The vases are about 18" tall and 6" wide at the widest point.
Here is the link:

You could always order them from Target online, or if you wanted I could go to Target and buy them for you and ship them to you.
I hope she has something like it though, because I think they would be perfect for your arrangements!!
ETA: And those arrangements would be great to use during the reception/dinner too......maybe close to where you and Dave are sitting? You could save on arrangements and it would mark that your table is kind of the "head table" or something like that.

It's funny that you have a picture of that brown suit. That the same one the guys are wearing in our wedding! It's great because it's just different enough from a regular tux.
I am still debating what color bridesmaids dresses I should do with that tux though, it's such a hard decision.

yeah, I have had a hard time too, but have decided on a color called "olivine" it's a beautiful green!
I don't know how you feel about pink, But pink and Brown are beautiful together!
