what I did this weekend: wedding #2

My best friend Betsy got married this weekend at a farm 30 miles north of Seattle. 
It was beautiful like all weddings and I cried tears of joy as she walked down the aisle.

 What I wanted to share with you is all the handmade and creative touches she added to her wedding.

 An antique chest from her great-grandmother was set up at the edge of the reception area.

 Guests signed the leaves of a tree on a canvas painting.

 She filled a drawer and the metal tub below with the programs

Flowers, a ribbon wrapped letter 'H' and lace 

Vintage blue bottles added her color


The centerpieces were a random assortment of rocks, mirrors, wildflowers and lantern



It was beautiful.

(two weddings down-- two to go. I'm in four this summer!)

wedding number 4

No it's not me. I've only been married once (and I plan on keeping it that way.) But another one of my dear friends recently got engaged and I'm on the list to be a bridesmaid...

for wedding number four in six months.

But I'm excited! I love weddings! Love love love weddings.

And in honor of my dear friends getting hitched, I'm working on a wedding line of hair accessories. I haven't posted any of them yet, but I bought some gorgeous satin and French tulle...

and put together a few things.

     

We'll see what more I'll come up with this weekend. It's supposed to be pretty chilly [for Seattle] so I'm hoping to hole up for a bit. :)

What are you doing this weekend?
