Today Dishing: Final Words about the Wedding

I won’t promise this will be the last “wedding” blog but as of today, it’s the last one I’ve planned.

Reception cards really had us stumped. We wanted something reflecting the bride and groom but would also have a fun factor. Both the bride and groom are teachers, therefore some school reference seemed appropriate. We ordered pencils with their names and the wedding date inscribed. They were cute but not exactly fun. 

Then one day we saw mustache pencil toppers at the store.  The same day we saw a magazine ad with Kelly Ripa holding a mustache topper. That was it. Current, fun and a prop for a photo op.
                                         
We wrote the guests name and table number on the mustaches,  threaded the pencil through them and stuck them in styrofoam covered with grass.  Voila! Reception cards!


                                                                          
Paper lanterns hanging over the dance floor took hours to install but proved worth the effort.


The Glenn Traeger Orchestra provides live music but also highlights certain members during the evening adding even more entertainment value.
                                                                                                                                       
And there you have it.

And as they say, “That’s all folks!"
