Warm and Fuzzy :)

Aw, how cute. Our first piece of mail addressed to "Satterlee Family" Pretty cheesy, eh?

Ceremony Flowers

Experimenting with some jars I picked up from St. Vinny's last weekend. I think they would make awesome pew decorations. Whatcha think?

Flower Girl shirts

So, I have been trying to find these iron on gems that spell out "flowergirl". Amy and I searched the aisles of every craft store last Saturday before finally giving up. So, I got a little crafty with these and I think they turned out even better than I had pictured. Eat that JoAnne Fabrics :)

My little treasures :)

So, what better does a crazy bride have to do on a Saturday night? Why, wash 120 jars and vases of course! We will be using these for the ceremony centerpieces, so if anyone has any little container with old vintage character they are willing to part ways with, please let us know! We are about half way to the amount we need.



Jars for the candy buffet. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for the one that is temporarily holing our potatoes!

Love you all!

To my beautiful ladies and a gent :)

My choice in bridesmaids (and one groomsmen) was simple. I often get the jaw-drop-dear-in-the-headlights look when asked how many bridesmaids I have. It quite entertaining, actually. The fact of the matter is, you have all been a huge part of my life and I can't imagine going through my wedding day without you.

Flowers

I am SO excited that my very good friend, Sasha Tootla, will be helping coordinate the wedding. She has been an absolute lifesaver so far. She helped me find a florist who will be making some amazing flower arrangements! (Yes, I changed my mind on the feathers.... surprised?!)

My bouquet (The girls will have mini versions of these!)


For the boys :)


Corsages

My favorite part :)

Brandon and I were able to drive to New Buffalo last night to taste test food for the wedding. Let me tell you...it was well worth the drive. Danielle is the owner of "Maison Cuisine" and proudly uses fresh organic vegetables and meats from local farmers. She even drives to Chicago the day of the wedding to pick up fresh baked breads from a local bakery! Two words: Pretzel Bun.

Some insider info: Danielle also makes everything fresh on site. Appetizers will include a cheese plate, fresh guacamole, a (to die for) mango salsa and homemade hummus.

This makes me SO hungry!
