There are two things I have on my brain with regards to our wedding {well two out of hundred or so...}: The escort card display & the dessert table backdrop. Our reception venue is just waiting to be customized. It has a soft, neutral color palette with little, to no decor so I cannot wait to make it "us." However, to make it "us" is going to require some work & a few props {so happy Rich, my father, & brother-in-law are all very handy men}. These props are going to have to travel well, be quick to put up, & even quicker to take down because we have to have everything out right after our reception.
In these two photos I love the re-use of old household items - doors & shutters. The doors may present a challenge, but the shutters are small & easy to take down. I also like the candles & up-lighting, which may be necessary as we are told it can get quite dark in the room {third thing on my brain - what to hang from ceiling that is not a lantern but still has lights...that is a later post}. Well, at least I know the desserts that are going on the actual table. That is a start!
