About Mrs. Joey

To thank all our friendors, readers, ushers, and wedding party, we bought everyone t-shirts. We wanted something fun that people would use but that would fit in our tiny budget. The t-shirts were a hit! Everyone loved how each shirt sort of represented their personalities.

Everyone loving their shirts, minus the little ones

Actually, not everyone got a shirt. Sister Joey got an awesome gift bag full of things we thought she’d love. We gave friendor Wendy a cute purse in “her” colors, and the ushers and best man got prints of vintage college football posters.

@Sylvia: &@Annie: I got these from Zazzle. Hunt around for coupon codes. I got both of these for half off.

@FutureMrsKoontz: All the shirts but the two referenced in my comment above and the last shirt (grey with a print of Washington State) in the group picture came from Threadless (http://www.threadless.com/). The Washington State one came from Casual Industrees (http://www.casualindustrees.com/store/pc/home.asp).
