Is this a silly idea??? DIY project...

Most of our guests are from OOT. We're talking everywhere from Boston to SC to Miami to LA to San Fran. to Mexico to Bermuda to Brussels..... and everywhere inbetween. Seriously. It's nuts. I'm putting stamps on invites and realizing how crazy it is....

So I was thinking about getting a vintage looking map of the US, framing it in an elaborate gold frame (think ornate picture frame that you'd see in a museum), and leaving push pins for our guests to show where they're from. With a little saying next to it (so they'll know what to do)..

Is this stupid? I just think it's so special that people are from everywhere and coming from near and far to be with us on our wedding day.... And I'd love to have it as a keepsake to hang in our house one day....to remind us of how special our friends and families are.

That is a great personal touch. I think everyone will love it; they will know how much it means to you that they traveled to see you get married.

Since I'm not doing a bouquet toss - maybe we could give the bouquet to the people who travelled the farthest???
