Where did yesterday go?
Oh yeah… into the wedding craft time warp!
While my dad was off scuba diving and spearing us some fish, Ryan, my mom, sister and I were knee-deep in wedding crafts.
The above picture is of our wedding day programs.
We are using a vintage wedding monogram on the cover of our programs. The monogram features our wedding date underneath the letter F(for Ryan’s last name) that I created for free through the Wedding Chicks website. (Seriously LOOOOVE that site.)
Ryan printed off all the the programs using nice 5.5’ x 5.5’ inch cream cardstock that my mom, sister and I tied off with a cream satin ribbon after creating pages featuring information about our ceremony and wedding party.
(Yes, Ryan is having two best men… Not one best man. That is not a grammatical oversight. 😉 )
Our other project had us tackling the menus we’re going to have tucked into the napkins at the place settings at our reception. 
We utilized the wedding monogram on the menus as well to keep consistency from the ceremony to the reception.
The menus are completely done and the programs should be done once we get a chance to run out and purchase more ribbon.
I have a feeling we may get sucked back into the wedding craft time warp again today! 🙂
Dog Park
We did manage to entertain the dog a bit when we took a break from all the crafting yesterday.
I headed to the park with three crazies.
Sadie…
And these two…
We had a great time watching Sadie run around and try to catch tennis balls in the air.
When we arrived home from the dog park, my mom had a surprise waiting for us…
Sadie’s Halloween costume: A blushing bride! 😀
We initially wanted to dress her up like a little pig, but when she tried on the pig costume it didn’t fit quite right.
Then we came up with the idea of dressing her up like a bride because my parent’s are hosting a post-wedding brunch at their home in St. Pete the day after our wedding and we thought a wedding-related costume would be adorable.
Sadie has a gorgeous white dress, a veil, a garter and even her own bouquet of flowers!
She’s going to make a big ol’ man dog very happy one day. 😉
I’m off to hang with the fam for a bit before Ryan and I head back to Orlando.
Hope you’re enjoying the weekend!

Julie,
Fraiche is spelled wrong on the menu! The I comes after the A. I doubt it’s that big a deal though. I’m sure that the cute template will distract from any spelling 😉
On another note, Sadie looks way too cute in her outfit!
ahhh! i copied it from our catering menu.
oh well… i just took a family survey & no one knew… soooo, we’re not redoing them. 🙂
to quote my dad, “i don’t even know what that is, let alone how to spell it.” 🙂
Ahh boo for people telling you that!!
It is no big deal, I second your dad’s comment! 🙂
I was going to tell you the same… Creme Fraiche…. oops!
Looks beautiful though!
I just noticed the spelling error, too. Oops!
Her costume is adorable :).
Thats so cute! =) How exciting your wedding is so soon!
Sadie is so cute! You should have her be the flower girl! Just kidding I don’t think that is possible.
I can’t believe your wedding is in 20 days!!!!
Sadie is adorable 🙂 good she is not going to the wedding like this, she might be the show stealer (no offense!) 🙂
Your wedding is going to be awesome! I wish I could do mine all over again. I have so many new ideas now!

I’m obsessed with Sadie’s costume. That is hands-down the best doggie costume I’ve ever seen.
Sadie’s costume is IN.CRED.I.BLE. I think it is awesome simply that she is keeping it ON….my dog would go crazy! Just shows what a mama’s girl Sadie is….wants to be just like you 🙂
COMPLETELY unrelated: download “Dancing On My Own” by Robyn (yes, the same Robyn circa 1996….”show me love” was def my jam in 5th grade)….heard it yesterday and thought of you because I know you are always looking for good music for your workouts! xoxo

I wish I knew about that wedding site when I was doing my programs and menus!
Sadie is a beautiful bride. You should make her a milkbone bouquet. 🙂
where did you find sadie’s costume? it’s adorable!!!
my mom actually found it! the dress was from an angel costume for a baby. she then made the veil by tying the veil material with white ribbon and tying it around sadie’s neck. the garter on her leg is a scrunchie. 🙂
Sadie looks so cute her in bride outfit!

Sadie’s costume is too funny! I don’t think my dog would allow that to stay on longer than 5 minutes, it woudl probably be shredded :/

Oh my goodness- I can’t believe your Mom found that costume- how perfect!!! 😀 She looks so cute! & it looks like she is actually enjoying wearing the outfit- too funny.

Julie,
The menu cards and programs turned out really cute! I am impressed! It is so nice that you had the whole family helping out!
Your wedding programs turned out really nice! They don’t look homemade at all – very professional! Also, your dog is TOO cute all dressed up and carrying her bouquet!
That is PRECIOUS!
I love the vintage monagram…and Sadie looks adorable!
Sadie = One Word. Epic! 🙂
I love Sadie’s costume — what a beautiful bride 🙂
The programs and menu look beautiful!
Love Sadie’s costume. The bouquet in the mouth is a wonderful touch. I am excited for your big day, so you must be head of heels!
Looks like all of the wedding details are falling into place! 🙂
Sadie is too cute! I love her Halloween costume – you can be twins! (Maybe she could wear it at the wedding?! JK)
Sadie is the most adorable dog ever (well, except for my own Cocoa, of course). 😉
That costume is da bomb!
Aww, she looks so cute in her Halloween costume!
I’m dreaming of your wedding cake right now! Just reading about it made my mouth water. 🙂
oh my gosh, that costume is HILARIOUS!!!!! hahaha. We got my dog a shark costume but it’s too small. Darn those big boxer chests!
Your wedding menu sounds delicious!!
One thing I’d like to say is always that car insurance canceling is a hated experience so if you’re doing the right things like a driver you won’t get one. Many people do receive the notice that they are officially dumped by their particular insurance company they then have to scramble to get extra insurance after a cancellation. Inexpensive auto insurance rates are usually hard to get after having a cancellation. Understanding the main reasons regarding auto insurance cancellation can help car owners prevent sacrificing one of the most vital privileges available. Thanks for the suggestions shared by your blog.
Hi Julie,
I love your site! Your wedding was beautiful! I’m gettimg married in less than two weeks and I’m up to my ears in projects. I wasn’t going to do programs but after seeing how nice yours turned out, I am very tempted ;). I wanted to know if you bought the paper in 5.5X5.5 size or if you just cut it into that size, if so what did you use? Also how did you print the inside of the program and which layout did you use? Looking forward to hearing back from you. Thank you!
