Wedding Decorations and homemade goodness

Spring wedding, means bright colours, so we decided on an orange, yellow and green colour scheme.

 Pretty and beautiful daffodils. The greenhouse forced bloomed them and when I picked them up, was so happy with them.
 A beautiful ring dish to hold our rings, made by my friend Lisa as a shower present. (will have to post shower pictures too!)
A spring wedding is very unpredictable, so our plans of getting married outside didn't happen. We transformed our living room and made it work. Used the tissue flowers and paper globes inside as decorations.

  I re-purposed an old suitcase for our card box. I love how it turned out. The fabric inside wasn't exactly our colour scheme, but think it worked just perfectly.
 I spent some time making brownie cookies as our favors. They were really yummy cookies and held up pretty well in the package. Saved myself some serious cash by doing them myself. Even picked up the bags to package them in. Icing them was mildly pain-free, but worth it in the end.
My homemade banner. I love making these for weddings.
 Our seating chart. I bought black frames to put various things into. Guest book, candy bar, etc.

 The paper globes. They were a labor of love for Jamie and I, but loved how they turned out, and how we got to use them both days.
 Centerpieces. Paper globes with daffodils. I also made the table numbers, but guess we didn't get a picture of any of them.
 How cute were these bells? It fit perfectly with our rsvp's (will be there with bells on!)

 Not a great picture of the hall. Will have to find a better one. But it was plain and simple and just matched what we wanted perfectly. We hung the tissue flowers up around the room. And I loved how the centerpieces were pops of colours on the tables.
