My Little Brother's Rehearsal Dinner!
I had so much fun helping my mom pull
together the rehearsal dinner for my little brother!
together the rehearsal dinner for my little brother!
Everything has to be budget friendly..fast..and DIY. As we sat at chick-fil-a for a dinner break....I told her I feel like we were on some show like design star!! We only had a window of 48 hours to make everything happen. We woke up..went to the location..made a plan..shopped for items we wanted to use for decor and everything for the dessert/drink tables! Then we slept...woke up and set up! We wanted to make everything extra special for our Daniel and Shanna!
I'm really happy with how it all turned out..
it was a great celebration..I think everyone had fun.
And Shanna and Daniel were smiling..ALOT.
that probably had something to do with the
fact that they were getting married the next day...

PS. This post is a glimpse into the very
"full of life" family life..that I grew up with.. haha.

DIY Photobooth - I was so excited when my mom said yes to this idea! we had a blast shopping for all the props.(sophie loved it too. :) that sombrero...$3 or $4 bucks at Hobby Lobby!? #deal
I seriously can't even handle the cuteness of the Bride and Groom photo below though! We grabbed up the top hat from paper mart (party store) and used the veil and crown from my bachelorette party!
Everyone loved this..I am using this same idea for another party soon. It makes everyone goof off a little and have fun!
Aren't they adorable?? And I think we need to carry around fake mustaches with us more often.
just sayin..... we look awesome.
