Come Together

May 21st, 2010 @ 3:03 pm by Mrs. Trail Mix

The wedding is so close, I can’t stand it! It feels like time is going in slow motion but still whizzing by. Surprisingly, I seem to have finally found my zen place about the whole thing. Yes, I’ve still got a few butterflies lurking in my stomach but for the most part, I’m just dang excited to get the party started!

Anyways, the cool thing about fast approaching the date is that, for the most part, there are no more projects to stress over because almost everything is done (I guess my obsessive habits earlier in the planning process have paid off, eh?)

So I took the opportunity to get together all my paper products that I’ve created during the past eight months and I’m so pleased with the overall results. It’s the perfect mish-mosh of shades of yellow and blue, with accents of ivory and raffia.

What you see here includes my programs, table numbers, invitation suite, chair sign, menu, escort cards and other random signage.

I made everything except the actual invitation and RSVP card. Not too shabby, right? Well, it is a little shabby-chic but that’s the look I was going for, so that’s cool…

It’s fun to see a bunch of my projects all together to get a sense of the wedding look and I’m pleasantly surprised at how everything’s coming together. I mean, for the amount of blood, sweat and tears I put into these things, they damn well better look good, ha!

How are all your DIY projects coming along? Are you pleased with the results? Did you achieve the look you were hoping for?

I love it! They look coordinated without being overly matchy-matchy. I think you did a fabulous job! What program did you use to design everything in?

These look great. Your DIY are so nice, I am itching to start mine but we have a while until I need to worry (we are not getting married for more then 18 months). I hope my DIY projects will be as nice as yours.

Looks awesome! I love the color palette and everything you’ve done! It’s really sophisticated the way you pulled it all together and it’s not matchy-matchy–very elegant and chic!
