With just 10 days to go, sharing an update on progress (w/ PICS- BM dresses, DIY menus, placecards, favors, and other things)

Finally I have a good pic of our BM dresses and their dyeable shoes. Here's my matron of honor trying it on after her fitting.



Here is a pic of my FH's son's outfit (minus his tie)- he is a jr groomsman.

Groomsman outfits will be this but with brown shoes, belt and this tie (sorry this is a bad pic).



Here is our DIY menu. Give me any suggestions you might have. This is just a mock-up. Haven't printed them all out yet. Only thing I've found so far is I need to capitalize the 'Cakes' in 'Crab cakes.'



Here is one of our favors (other is the butterfly shaped seed paper). These are our sand dollar cookies. Need input ladies. I asked Lulu's to include their personalization card with the 'Legend of the Sand dollar' and it has our names and date on it, but I didn't realize they would attach it to the front, so I bought sticker labels. Now I don't know what to do. Should I just leave them as is- just legend attached to front. Or should I put our sticker label under the personalization card??

Choice 1- label under personalization card



Choice 2- just personalization card, nothing under



For our place cards we will have a 'message in a bottle' for each guest. I typed up a 'thank you' poem for the light blue parchment scrolls in each bottle. The bottles will be set out on cute tables I found at the Christmas Tree Shoppe in the shape of a seashell and a fish (one is sky blue, one tan/brownish- our colors). This is just a trial in how to do them so there will probably be changes. Less sand I think. It also doesn't have the sand dollar label on the front yet, that will have the name and table, but this is just an idea of what they will look like.

Jess, everything looks so great together! For the sand dollar cookies, I'd do the one with the round label under the legend of the sand dollar.

Re: With just 10 days to go, sharing an update on progress (w/ PICS- BM dresses, DIY menus, placecards, favors, and other things)

WOW! Everything is simply amazing. Your guests are going to love all of the personal touches. Go with the sticker underneath on the favors.
