save the date | balloons

although this post is a tad bit dated, being posted back in 2010, i love this cute save the date wedding idea. the guest would receive this cute card with a balloon attached. when they blow up the balloon - poof! they get their invitation with who, where, date and time! i love it.

if you have not been over to ohjoy, you definitely need to go and take a look at her diy's! they're clever and adorable! enjoy!

table no.'s

as i was browsing for extra 'things' to put on our tables at our wedding reception and after looking at candles and votives and flowers and just stuff... i naturally came across pictures of weddings and was able to look at some of the decor that other people had used.

i forgot about the table numbers!!!

i couldn't believe it! and i found some really cute ones in adorable off-white standing frames. i did my research and looked high and low for the perfect frames and found that they are available at ikea. i found some that were used for about $2.50 each and then looked them up on the ikea website and found something that was super exciting!

these adorable little tolsby frames were available at ikea, right down the street from my home for a whopping $0.99/each!! i couldn't believe it! i ran into the bathroom and told my showering fiance that we HAD to go to ikea ASAP!!! so of course we did and i got some perfect little tolsby frames for a perfect little price! and i plan to use them like so...

// wedding dress \\

so i got my wedding dress last night... i didn't think that i would find the absolute perfect one on my first night of trying on dresses, but i did. and i am so in love with it. it's so simple and perfect and just my style. more pictures to come. ♥

wedding ideas

my fiance and i decided this past weekend, that we didn't want to elope anymore. we want to have very, very small wedding. just for our immediate family. so, we started looking for some cute wedding ideas and i ran across this wedding from 'style me pretty' and completely fell in love. i love the colors, i love how simple and small it looks. of course, ours would be up a scale, being able to accommodate about 40 people.

we are very excited and are starting to plan for sometime this spring! our date will be decided soon! tomorrow i will show you what we found for our center pieces... just you wait!
