Did i mention?






We're getting married! December 5th. I'll be posting wedding stuff on here. Lets see.. We want it in the evening outside- hopefully down at gema and don's pond with lots of pretty white christmas lights and candles and flowy white fabric. Im trying to decide what we're going to sit on.. seats or keep it rustic with hay bales with white fabric layed ontop? My colors are white and silver/grey with accents of icey blue. Basic. i saw a picture on google of an aisle with three different sized candles at the end of each row of chairs with flower petals scattered along the ground. it was so pretty. Of course, i cant find the picture anymore :(. Im hoping that a woman named martha will officiate it. Shes bilingual and specializes in bilingual ceremonies wihtout making it sound awkward/choppy/harsh. We'll rent a big party tent for the reception tobe held immediately afterwards. I want a mariachi band... and my friend Martha (not the officiant) will be catering the wedding. I have requested enchiladas riceand beans. Haha no Hungry people will be at the wedding. Lisa, my friend fromt the bakery and maid of honor, has offered to help make the cake- we'll make it together. Shes the actual cake decorater there. It should be fun. im attaching pictures of what im thinking..
This is the hay idea.. except they would be scattered somewhat-randomly in a half circle around where Jerry and I would be standing with Martha... I was thinking that they would look pretty with little lights and a bright flower here and there in a rustic little jar? ideas ? anyone? or should i just stick with chairs?
This is my cake that i really like. Its plain, simple and has my colors minus the blue. I'll be changing the flowers and adding some icyblue to it somewhere
These lights would be soo pretty floating behind us in the pond, dont ya think? Best of all they arent candles- solar power lights instead so i dont have to worry about them blowing out.
This is kindaaaaaaaa what i was thinking for the aisle.. except the candles would be three different sized fat candles grouped together instead of being floating candles in vases.. and not so many flowers.. just enough to see.

Congratulations! I am so excited for you and Jerry! I love all of your ideas. They hay bales are really cool. I'm sure whatever you decide will be beautiful!

I love it all, Amber. Hay bales is a great idea--and love the solar pond lights. It all is beautiful. Hey, do you want me to gather bags of colorful fall leaves and bring them home for the paty of flowers? That would be pretty but doubt they would last til December. I just love your cake and colors and all of it.
And what a great car. I am so glad you found one. Just remember that cops look twice at red cars for speeding......

I'm so glad someone suggested the hale bales. It was a really great idea. I can't believe you were able to find a picture of them. You should buy that person a coke.
I really like the colors you are using. They are nice and wintery without being depressing.
I like Gema's idea of the leaves, too. But I don't know how long they will last and stay pretty. (Plant-ology is not my specialty.) You could make a path out of hay too with some flowers sprinkled in? Just an idea.
Can't wait til this weekend!
