Wedding Wreaths

I so hope that our photographers got some pics of these beautiful wreaths that my sweet friend Pat loaned me for Haley's wedding...I did get all five of them on the church doors...just forgot to take some pics. I was so busy running around making sure everything was going as planned...I left it up to them to earn their paycheck...believe me...I was NOT THRIFTY when it came to hiring the right photographers...what can I say...we are a picture lovin' family. I saw on facebook where our photographers said that we should get a sneak peek soon of Haley's  pictures...I'm really excited and look forward to seeing them. Pat had made these wreaths back in May 2010 for her daughters wedding, she had some very pretty satin sashes made for them and with a "M" monogram...now since I couldn't use the sashes...I decided to go a different route and make some white organza bows. If you are wondering how she made these...it's pretty simple. Cut four pieces of styrofoam and hot glue them together...cover with moss...cut your greenery and insert (you also might need to use some hot glue)...so easy for such a beautiful look!!! Thank you Pat...you saved me a ton of time. Hope all of you are having a great holiday weekend...mine is going to be very WET with TS Lee out in the gulf. Looks like I will be watching lots of college football on Saturday and painting some furniture with my Annie Sloan chalk paint on Sunday and Monday...hoping you weekend will be better than mine.
                                               Thanks for coming by,
                                                          Linda

                                           I promise...they looked
                                         much better on the church
                                                         doors!
                                  
                                            I will be sure to share
                                             if I get some church
                                                    door pics.

  2. Hi Linda,
    The wreaths are beautiful, I'm sure they made for a gorgeous entry into the church.
    I know you must be excited about the start of the football season! My son is photo editor for the yearbook this year so he gets to be down on the sidelines to take pics. I talked to him earlier this evening and he is very excited about the season.
    Have a wonderful weekend.

  3. Those are so cute. I was picturing something round, but those are so much more unique. Have a good day watching football. I already put our mascot out in the front yard and am now waiting for the pre-game programs to start.

  5. Very pretty. I think I took more pictures of inanimate objects as I knew the photographer would get pictures of the guests! I'm looking forward to us both getting some professional pictures in!

    XO,

  7. I love the square wreath. I'm sure they looked gorgeous on the church doors.
    We're having the same rotten weather this weekend. So much for the end of summer! Stay dry!
