Yes! Post pics. I'm thinking they look fine and that FH of yours is just trying to drive you crazy.

Maybe they'll look different once they're lit too. No one will notice that they're not identical. They'll just see the overall glow and think it's cute, I'm sure. Post pics anyway though!

Never mind. My camera stinks. Can't get it to focus and I gotta run out to the church. oh well...

I guess I'll just have to figure it out or let it go once and for all.....

I wouldn't worry about it....Everyone will be so wrapped up in the food and the music, that i doubt they'll notice it is not an exact match. I know its your day and you want everything to be perfect, but i wouldn't sweat it.. with 5 days to go, try to enjoy yourself as much as possible!!! Congrats and Good Luck!!

Re: UGH! I'm getting married in 5 days...

The other thing you might want to do is just place the votive and then use an tent placecard in front of the votive with the name of the guest and in a large frame on the table.....write a note to guests and ask them to bring their votive to their table...or you can make some cute saying about 'lighting their way' to their table or something cheeseylike that!
that might be less stressful, although i totally understand when i have my mind set on something i want to finish it!

Re: UGH! I'm getting married in 5 days...

also...is the label not fitting around the votive or is the height off?? You might be able to fix it with adding a ribbon

Re: UGH! I'm getting married in 5 days...

I thought of ribbon, but it's time consuming. I have a thousand other things to get done! Thanks so much though for your suggestions...If you come up with anymore let me know!!

I am sure they are fine, don't worry about it. Its not worth stressing out over, no one will notice except for you.

Re: UGH! I'm getting married in 5 days...

I really think it's going to look fine though. Try to stay calm and not worry about it too much (even though I know that's easier said than done). Everything's going to look GREAT. I can't wait. Hee hee.

DO NOT WORRY about it! Seriously - you're getting married; no one's going to walk away from your wedding saying, 'Everything was great, too bad those votive place cards weren't identical.' Promise!
