Ceremony
We are very fortunate that our best friends and closest family members are standing up for us that day. I will be having both of my parents walk me down the aisle - my mom teared up when I asked her to take part in this - both my Mom and Dad have been so instrumental in my life. Colin & I's good friend will be officiating our ceremony, definitely an honor for Joel to be involved in the most important day of our life.
We are also planning on doing a sand ceremony since we are getting married outside - I am looking for the Umbra frame to pour our sand into.
I contemplated using an arch for the ceremony but I think it will deter from the natural beauty of the wedding site. I made daisy pomanders to line the aisle with.

Sand Ceremony
I bought a sand ceremony frame, we are involving our daughters in this so the picture will be of the 4 of us taken @ our engagement session.
I apologize because I do not remember where I took this picture from.

Guestbook
Let me say, I love Trash to Treasure on the Knot! I got table runners, my bra, my "guestbook" from here. I was looking @ buying a guestbook platter for all of our guests to sign or was going to make a photo album book of our engagement pics for everyone to sign and I came across a platter someone was selling for cheap. I only hope I remember to put it out as the previous bride I bought it from forgot.
Ring Dish
I ordered a ring dish from Etsy. http://www.etsy.com/shop/wiseimpressions
We received this very quickly and love it! I will be changing out the color of the ribbon to chocolate brown.

Baskets
I am planning on putting a fan on everyone's seat, but for our programs I found this basket @ Michaels when I was shopping with my Mom. It was on sale for 50% off when I bought 3 of them.
I originally had bought these buckets from Target - I love their $1 area...but we cannot throw flowers @ our ceremony, so I made the flower girls pomanders to carry instead. I am not sure what i will do with these now.
