On August 31st, Lauren and Tim got married.
It was SUCH A GOOD DAY. Awesome weather, no worries, everything went so smoothly. And, an added bonus, by mid afternoon they were husband and wife ;)
I had tonnes of fun planning this day with Lauren. Oddly enough, I put WAY more time and effort into this wedding than I did my own. 8 years ago, there was no pinterest or wedding gawker. Any ideas came from bridal magazines or from other weddings I'd been to. I basically picked my colours and my menu and told the wedding planner to do the rest. I had never seen my bridesmaids bouquets until the day they arrived. I didn't really know what the hall was going to look like. Or the church. The day before my wedding I did ZERO prep work. Interesting, eh?
Anyway, I digress. Here are some photos of some of the bigger things we did. All the photos are from This Moment Forever photography.

| The center pieces. Babysbreath and rented tower vases. They took a few hours to make. Each vase used approx. $15 of flowers. |
 |
| Table set up |
 |
| Matt designed the menus and printed them at VanPelts. We youtubed a napkin folding video, and viola. A fancy touch. Megan folded all the napkins |
 |
| Cupcake table. The cake plates were borrowed from a friend, crates belonged to Julianna, mason jars from the thrift store, cupcakes made by Laura Morden. |

 |
| Blurb book used as a guest book |

 |
| Front entrance |
 |
| Windows we used as a seating chart |
 |
| It took a little over 3 hours to write the names on. |

| This was NOT diy. A decorator from Dutton came in and did the "big" stuff. The ceiling and the backdrop |
 |
| Bridesmaids bouquets made by Julianna |
 |
| All the hydrangeas came from Tim's mom's garden. Didn't we luck out? We had buckets and buckets of them |
