A Productive Evening!

Sarah and I can hardly believe how productive our evening was...wedding wise! We started with a tasting after school at the Arboretum! We tried some great appetizers and had a good conversation with the catering director to plan our menu. We picked some of our favorite things and now we just have to wait to get an idea on pricing. 


Then we headed to Archivers in Eden Prairie Center to buy the final things we needed for our invitations. We bought the stickers that we will use to seal our envelopes and the stamp to embellish the stickers. We also had to buy our silver pen to write on the brown envelopes. We are all set now to start mass production of the invites! YAY! Here you can see Sarah getting excited as she opens the FIRST completed invitation!!


ext we headed to the Dollar Store to shop around. We had nothing specific we were looking for, but we thought we would check it out. Little did we know that we would stumble upon great party favor boxes for our candy buffet at the reception. Yes...that is right...I said candy buffet!! We think they are super cool and we are going to stamp our tree (a tree you will see throughout our wedding in different locations) onto the boxes. 

When we got home, we had an even better wedding surprise! Our first set of ties for the wedding arrived. We are not doing the standard tuxes for our brothers in the wedding...we are doing tan suits and flip flops! We are buying the guys ties in different shades of green We heard about a great tie website (thetiebar.com) from my friend Anne who used it to find the perfect orange tie for her wedding and we found several ties that we liked. Well...we got them today and we LOVE them!! Here you can see me modeling them!!
