Pam wanted twinkle lights, so she got twinkle lights. I had Gunny, handyman extraordinaire put lights in all the trees along the pathway and we had lit candles everywhere. We did had some candle issues, because there was a breeze coming from across the lake, but thought the twinkle lights were pretty. NOTE to self: Bring twice as many lights next time!
The guest sign-in was one of my favorite parts. I used an old dressing table scrounged from my garage and spray painted silver and the very cool guest book I found for Pam and Nik at Hobby Lobby, a deal and a steal (!), a floral arrangement I already had with some sunflowers and tree branches added, dried corn, some pens I had wrapped in cornhusks and twine. I opened one of the dressing table drawers and put in a doily, pine cone, and pampas grass. I hung silver initials P & N off of the drawer handle, then propped another amazing find, the weathered piece of wood my work bud and I found lying in back of K-Mart (yes!)painted with the verse Pam wanted. It was an awesome little vignette!
The path was lit with shepherd's hooks and votive candles accented with raffia and silk daisies.
I loved the burlap and lace wrapped bottles I did with mail box numbers on them spelling out the wedding date! Those went on the outdoor fireplace mantle and made such a simple statement with the white pumpkins and fall wreath on the mantle.
I also just have to share pictures of Pam done by Cindy Boykin-Faulkenberry Photography. They were done in a a back alley in Camden and are just awesome. Cindy is so talented!
Isn't Pam gorgeous?
I'll have to divide this into several posts, there is just so much to tell!
