Pretty......

I just made this picture for no reason. It would be good as a wedding/engagement announcement or save the date cards but we're not doing that. But anyway, it's cute!

Wedding plans have been flying yet again. We are trying to get things set with the DJ, who won't call me back, and the venue for the reception/dance. To cut down on the cost of the church we are not having the reception there like we had originally planned. It would have been nice, but not for the price they wanted us to pay. Pretty ridiculous. Especially since my parents are members there...oh well. This will work out fine. I don't know if I ever mentioned but we will be driving off in my Papaw's classic Studebaker. He will be our driver and i hope to find him a chauffer's hat. He will look so cute! Here he is in his car. I love my Papaw! I just hope we don't break down before we get out of the parking lot. How embarrassing! Haha He does have problems with it sometimes! Maybe he can fine tune it in the next few months.
What else, what else......My mom got an arbor for Christmas that we are going to use as a "backdrop" for the ceremony. It's really pretty. We may wrap some ivy on it with some twinkle lights. There is going to be a bird/feather theme. We are sticking ostrich feathers in the ferns on the stage, the flower girl will throw feathers and petals, the ring bearer will carry a bird's nest instead of a pillow. My bouquet holder will have ostrich feather's spilling from it. I wish i could find a picture of this because i have a really hard time explaing it to people.
For the reception we are using pretty bird cages (hopefully they will be all different ones) with candles or flowers inside and nests with candles around. The wedding favors will be small nests with robins eggs (jordan almonds or some other kind of candy). Hmmm.....that's all I can think of right now.
The material for the bridesmaid dresses has come in but my mom hasn't had time to go get it yet. I'll be glad when she atleast gets to start on them. I can't wait to see with they are going to look like!
Less than 5 months I will be Mrs. Heath Kirkwood! Ahhh!! :D
