| This post is about getting ready for a home wedding! Our daughter got married a couple of years ago and we had her wedding in our backyard. Her wedding was August 27th, so the yard was in full bloom. We had it right a dusk so it wasn't too hot and the candle light was just beautiful! |
 |
| We had the guest book set up right as you entered the seating area. |
 |
| All the floral designs were done by me. This one was on the cake table. |
 |
| We were only expecting about 75 guests, so I didn't have to rent any chairs. I used chairs and benches from all over the yard. |
 |
| We had little intimate seating area's in the yard. |
 |
| Another seating area. |
 |
| This is the floral design that we had on the buffet table. Since it was a garden wedding we had brisket and all the trimmings. Howard cooked 8 briskets!! Oh, did I mention we prepared all the food too! |
 |
| We got out the silver. |
 |
| Took the potpourri out of the beverage dispenser and filled it with punch. |
 |
| Melissa wanted a vintage wedding dress, so we hit all the antiques shops. Here are some on the couch! |
 |
| Here are some in the bedroom! |
 |
| Boots, flip flops, what will she wear??? |
 |
| So many dresses, so little time! |
 |
| This one was beautiful! Love the buttons and the lace! |
 |
| But so is this one!! |
 |
| It's almost time for the wedding!! |
 |
| My mother gave me lots of vintage jewelry so Melissa had plenty to choose from. This is a display that I have in my closet. |
 |
| Every bride needs quilts for her........ |
 |
| Hope chest! |
 |
