Couples getting married on May 6, 2023

View Quoted Comment Girl ..... we aren't just wedding day twins. ROFLMAO. Here is my cake topper from Etsy,
and my headband I bought from there as well.
I am not doing table "numbers" - I special ordered vinyl stickers (6") of various sea creatures and coordinating stickers (1.5") for the escort cards. 😁😁
ALSO bought my FH groom's gift as well.
Etsy is my beat friend. LOL

View Quoted Comment Wow! Where do I even begin? Your cake topper is AMAZING! I love your groom’s gift and your headband is so beautiful! 😍 And your table “number” idea is so cool. I can’t wait to see all of the photos after your wedding when everything is put together.

Me, too !! 398 days!!

So I ditched the burgundy completely and decided on these as our wedding colors-

But I feel like they go better with the style and decor items that I plan on using.

Inspiration pics

I was finishing up shopping for my daughter’s birthday and I came across a cheap card box and I ordered it. I’m hoping that I could fold it up inside out so that it’s just plain white on the outside and just add a bow to it.


This is the $4 one that I ordered-
But I’m going to try and fix it so it’s more like this-

View Quoted Comment Oh how gorgeous!! And it all still looks so elegant, which I think you were hoping for. I really like that table place setting.

This is my inspiration for a card box. Not sure if I can pull it off. If not I, too, will order a cardboard "card box" and try to mimic this theme.

View Quoted Comment Thanks! I love your inspiration card box! You have such a fun theme! 🏝 💗 I’m sure you’ll come up with something great. 😉

So I can’t fold the card box inside out I don’t think because of the way that it’s constructed 🤦🏻‍♀️ but I think that I’ll probably still use it. I’m going to try and wrap the top with ribbon to cover up the rose pattern.

I ordered an acrylic sign for the favor table tonight. I need to stay off Etsy! 🤣

Does anyone have any ideas for their bouquets yet?

I love this bouquet but I don’t even want to know how much it cost! 🤣



I like this one but I’m worried about how fake it might look.

And I like this bouquet too but I worry about how fake and plastic it might look.

If I go with real flowers then I want a white rose bouquet or maybe white roses and hydrangeas.

Since we are having a photo booth, a caricaturist and a palm reader we decided on no favors - guests are getting a lot to take home already. BUT ... I love the acrylic!

This one is my favorite of the ones you posted!! I agree with your concerns about the plastic look on the others, though in reality it may translate to something totally different. I'd have your florist show you those flowers so you can get a better feel for how they look.

Do I have ideas!!! LOLOL I actually haver florist - just need to have the in person consult. I'm waiting for my second sister to come in May so she can go with me and give input on the bridesmaid bouquet.

This is my inspiration bouquets - whatever colors we decide on, the flowers HAVE to be calla lilies. My dress is tea length, so I don't want whatever bouquet I decide on to overwhelm me, know what I mean ?

I would like a smaller version of this for my 2 girls. Since the overlay on their dresses is very floral, I don't want another big floral piece to distract from that.

This is their dress. My older sister is making hers with long sleeves @@ . Long sleeves, in May, in Florida. Seriously sis. ROFLMAO but it makes her happy, and she agreed to the floral overlay (she is a NASCAR kinda gal) so ......... we go with the flow.

View Quoted Comment Oh that all sounds so cool! I would honestly love to not do favors but my FMIL feels that they are 100% necessary so we’re going to do little boxes of chocolates or something similar. It’s one of those pick your battles situations. 🤣

View Quoted Comment Those dresses are so pretty and unique and I think that the bouquets you picked out will be perfect. I love the touches of peach and pink in those bouquets. I agree, I don’t want a bouquet that’s enormous either.
