Wedding Assembly Weekend!

What a productive weekend!! First of all, my mom and I assembled some flower arrangements for decorations. This was a lot of fun!!! (This is our "wedding room" hahaha AKA spare/nursery room!!)
That's my wedding dress in the background!!! wahoo
We thought that we needed more weight at the bottom of the arrangements so that they weren't too top heavy! SO I kindly asked my dad if he would go out in the snowstorm and get us some rocks!! Haha- he did! (Although he could have put a coat on--!!)


Helpful dad! collecting his rocks!!!
Two of my bridesmaids Jenny and Annette- sensed that I was getting a bit stressed with things, (wedding, and finishing my thesis!) SO they asked if they could come and help me! And boy oh boy did we put them to work!! Thanks again guys!!
We assembled all of our invitations as well as 300 wedding favors!!!! So nice to check them off the list!!



Wedding favors--
This was our last thing of the night- so we were working on these at about 11:45pm and as the night went on, our famous line was "Oh, it will be dark in there- don't worry about it!!!" hahah
FYI- the groom's boxes have more candy! haha
Annette said- life isn't fair!- Times are tough! hahah Oh what a fun evening!

Dad saw we were having so much fun- so he wanted to join in on the fun!!

We're finished!!! My dad made perfect boxes, with a middle layer pad for all 300 party favors!!
