Sorry I've been slacking on keeping all of you up to date on my daughter's wedding. We are now under the three month mark..crazy! Everything is coming together really well. My mom and dad have been such a huge help. My dad is a retired cabinet maker and he's been building all of the wood items, and my mom has been doing a lot of the painting. I don't know what we would have done without them. We've spent a lot of time in the yard these past few weeks getting it ready. We planted a bunch of purple petunias and they are beautiful. Here are a few pictures of some of the things we've been working on. As you can tell there is a lot of lace and burlap :)
We decided to skip putting in a garden this year and put flowers in the boxes instead. I planted these three weeks ago. We purchased pre-made hanging baskets and put two in each box. They are about triple the size they were when we planted them. Can you imagine how big these are going to be come August!
I'm not sure what these little flowers are but I love them.
These are the flowers for the girls to wear in their hair as well as the corsages.
This is the super cute cake stand my dad made..love it!
These are some of the boxes for the flowers, also made by my dad.
The super cute cookie jars.
The boutonnieres for the guys made my the bride..she is so proud of them.
We've had so much fun making everything. It's going to be simply gorgeous!
Blessings,
Deanna Jean
Deanna everything for your daughter's wedding looks beautiful! WOW the petunias are out of this world!! The burlap and lace look just perfect with all of the thngs your dad made. Can't wait to see more pics, TFS ;)
ReplyDeleteDeanna, everything looks so lovely. It's just so wonderful to see all these handmade creations that are being made by all the loved ones.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing these photos...I knew it was coming up in August and was hoping you would share more of what you have made for this back yard wedding! Beautiful...everything is fantastic. What a blessing to have your mom and dad so gifted and able to give the kind of wedding your daughter was dreaming about it!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a wonderful project to spend your energy on! Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteLooking FANTASTIC Deanna :)
ReplyDeleteIt all looks gorgeous! Thanks so much for sharing this with us Deanna!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like this will be a beautiful wedding! I love the lace and burlap theme. You've all been doing great work. ;-) Best wishes wrapping up all the plans in the next few months.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have been so busy with the wedding that I wonder you have any time to stamp. I live up in Seattle so know about Memorial Day and rain which we had plenty of yesterday. My BFF, Colleen lives down in West Linn. Glad you were able to take time to make that cute bike card. I just got my stamp set last week and have had fun playing with it also.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the wedding plans.
it's going to be so beautiful!! love those big flower boxes and all of the elegant/rustic projects you have made so far! i can't wait to see pics of THE day!
ReplyDeleteWowzers, Deanna!!! Just gorgeous! I love the purple, lace and burlap. That cake stand is phenomenal!!! I can't wait for the wedding!
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing already...can't wait to see pics of the bog day! What great and talented parents you have!
ReplyDeleteDeanna, I'm so impressed with how organized you are for the wedding, already! You should be able to just enjoy the day when it comes, and not have all those last minute things stressing you out! Everything looks lovely :o)
ReplyDeleteYour flower beds are GORGEOUS! How wonderful that you and your family are all coming together to create such a beautiful affair for your daughter! I can't wait to see the wedding photos (I know, you would like the clock to slow down)...everything looks amazing, Deanna!!!
