- My Sister's Rehearsal -


My sister's wedding crept up on us quickly this past spring.  After all the planning it had finally come to the day before the wedding.  The day of the rehearsal, my sister and all our family worked hard putting together all of the details for the wedding.  My sister did an awesome job with all the preparations, spending months collecting all the perfect antiques to put together her vintage wedding theme.


An old window, baby's breath, and my sister's engagement photos finished off the guest book table.


My sister ordered this picture book to use as the wedding guestbook.



An IKEA frame decorated with a chalk pen.


This was one of the entrance tables in the wedding and reception hall, my favorite to decorate!


My sister found these playing cards at an antique shop with her wedding dates on them.





My sister and mom spent hours making these pinwheels by hand out of scrapbook paper.








All the pinwheels were handmade of scrapbook paper also.  These were to be given to all the guests to hold as the bride and groom left the church.


My sister ordered these adorable shirts for my kids to wear the next day while we were all preparing for the wedding.



I loved my Maid of Honor bag!


My mom, sisters, and I =)


The happy couple to be!

- Vintage Bridal Shower -


For months I have been coming up with ideas for my sister's vintage themed bridal shower.  The shower came together perfectly this past March with the help of my sister and mom's help.  Thanks to much Pinterest inspiration, we came up with some vintage party decor.  A family friend also made a beautiful mint green cake for the occasion.  Not only was it fun setting up for the party, we had a great time that day with close family & friends.


A new look for those old paper wedding bells.


My mom made a pennant out of vintage floral handkerchiefs.


Flower seeds wrapped in paper doilies were our party favors.













Our vintage chic cake embellished with fondant flowers & a pennant I made myself.



Lots of appetizers & treats.


Water with a taste of cucumbers.



Myself & my sisters Kelsey, the bride, & Kacie, the soon-to-be mommy.



My mom ordered some vintage wedding bingo cards off Etsy & we used old buttons as markers.
