Wedding Wednesday!

101 days left! It's hard to believe we will be in the double digits soon for our little countdown!!! And trust me, I am getting my butt in gear! Well kind of. Not quite there yet. But I have been busy! 

First of all, I think Travis is about to sh** his pants with all of the deliveries we've been getting lately! I have been ordering TONS of wedding stuff online! 

I ordered some toasting glasses like these:
{and why yes, of course they are Kate Spade. Do you know me?!}

And some cute forks like these:
{so we look super cute eating our cake}

 Oh yeah, I changed my guest favors from a candy bar to a cookie bar...like so:
{only blue ribbon and stuff, not red!}

Then, because I couldn't find any anywhere, I ordered some Carolina blue paper bags for people to put their cookies in. I finally put the stickers I had designed on them last night and they turned out pretty cute, I think!


And last, but certainly not least...I have started working on addressing invitations. I was not happy to go to the post office yesterday to find out my lovely invitations are now going to cost $0.65 each to mail, after I had already bought the "Forever" stamps that only cover $0.45!!! UGH! I had to buy these stupid ugly $0.20 George Washington stamps to add on...sorry George, but you don't look wedding-y at all. 

But, I was able to snazz up the envelopes a little bit by discovering clear address labels. Let me tell you, LIFESAVERS, those things! Being a teacher, I guess I have decent handwriting, but after my dear friend Kathryn had me address all 100+ of hers last year, there was no way I wanted to do that again! So...enter clear address labels-on clearance at Target no less. 

I think they look soooo good! 

{please excuse the crappy iPhone pics...I was too lazy to bust out my regular camera!}

Moving right along....my big project this weekend is to finish up the invitations and start making some ribbon wands!!! Who wants to help?!?!
