All in aunt maggie gets married
so you want to know the best part about planning a wedding? everyone wants to help!
early on in our engagement my nieces indicated a strong desire to contribute to the wedding. my mom came up with an idea: have them make pot holders as favors for the guests.
more wedding fun today as I'm talking about our programs and ceremony!
when victor and I got engaged I said i wanted our wedding to have three things:
any youngest child will tell you there is often pressure to do things exactly as their siblings have done them.
as previously mentioned i wanted lush overgrown living arrangements (i.e. plants in dirt) for our centerpieces. obviously i decided to grow them myself.
it's wedding wednesday!
since my table signs were so cute i figured they needed a way to be displayed on the tables that was just as adorable.
aside from flower girl dresses and food trucks there is one more thing about our wedding I've had planned for years: the table names.
for #weddingwednessday this week I'm going to do a final post about our seating chart!
remember how we got awesome beer and wine for our wedding?

when we last left off with maya's dress it was in pretty good shape.
I knew one of the flower girl dresses would need to be my favorite oliver + s pattern: the library dress, and who better to make it for than my rough and tumble namesake etta?
my youngest niece is miss neela banana peela. Now this child is so perfect anything would look great on her.
you may recall for our seating assignment display I was inspired by this pin:
let's get these flower girl dresses started shall we? first up: my maya.
thus far in our invitation adventure we have:
and I have to say all the pieces were looking pretty good.
