Seriously. SERIOUSLY. How did our wedding all of a sudden get here?? Mr. Socks and I have been churning out all of our DIY projects like ca-raaazy over here. Wanna see?

Our card picnic basket is ready!

Our OOT Boxes are completed—our sticker logo included! (P.S. - I wonder what our guest bedroom will look like without wedding stuff everywhere! Won’t that be nice?)

They’re full of Philly Goodness as well! Two Tastykakes, two bags of local Herr’s chips, two Ascher’s chocolate pretzels, and our brochure/map!

Our table numbers are put together like a tent:

I’m actually very pleased with how they look-I had thought of getting frames for each number, but I decided that I didn’t need to spend the money on them!

Our menus are printed and cut!

I printed up some restroom signs (the guy at Kinko’s couldn’t stop laughing at me for being this ridiculous!) and our wine/beer menus:

I thought I’d give you the .jpg so you can see the amazingness of Ladder 15 for giving us so much freedom with our food, wine, and beer menus! I hope you can read it—I can’t believe how many beers and wines we get to serve! Yum!

Here’s Momma Socks getting our cookies ready for our welcoming dinner!

We put all of the cookies in these little paper bags I bought from Michael’s. The only problem is that they’re…uh… pretty thin and the cookie grease has been seeping through a bit:

Ughh…seriously, paper bags? Do you have to look so ugly? But whatevs, the cookies inside are delicious, and I just don’t feel like freaking out over some paper bags.

Dad Socks cut out our sticker logos!

Mr. Socks was cutting our escort cards and other things!

Our Thank-you cards, for example…

We’re also going to hand some special guests some cards with our anniversary numbers on them-Once we reach the date of that anniversary, we can open the cards and read them! Hopefully we’ll get nuggets of wisdom from our friends and family!

Our poms are almost finished!! I think I have about 10 more to do, which can easily be accomplished tonight!

And here I am wearing one, just so you know what they’ll look like on! (P.S. - When did my hair get so long??)

And that’s it for now! I have a few more things to print out tonight, we have to finish the poms, and then take our OOT boxes to the hotel this evening as well.

Sister Socks arrives tomorrow with her hubby and puppy, so I’m super excited to spend all day tomorrow with them as I put together our (real) flowers!

Overall, things are perfectly on track right now! I had wanted to finish all of our paper and poms by this evening so I can have all day Friday and Saturday to get things together, hang out with family and straighten the house up!

Did you have a lot of projects come together in the last week? Did it all get done, or did you have to say eff it to a few things?
