Love in Grey and Yellow: T-Shirts and Ties

September 30th, 2009 @ 5:08 pm by 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.

This is totally Jen

Ask this lady about her cat Bennie

Our friendor baker Mary

The band

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.

We also gave the ushers their ties for the wedding.

Ta da!

Did you give thank you gifts that represented the receivers’ personalities?

@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).
