 Just some pretty pictures I've collected for fircone inspiration

Lots of things to do with the 2500 fircones we now have!

Signs

Matt, as a sign writer, should be all over this...but I think the last thing he wants to think about for his own wedding is his job!

So, I thought I'd give you a flavour of some of the signage we'll be using on the day- some DIY as per the rest of the blog, but some shop purchases too!

These are a couple of bargains I got in the Cox and Cox sale www.coxandcox.co.uk which we can use to guide people to the house...they are really high quality, metal signs for a fiver!


On the DIY front, we had a lot of spare pieces of wood and MDF at home from where we removed a kitchen cupboard to put the dishwasher in!

Matt cut the MDF and I painted with a pot of blackboard paint I found in my Dad's shed! We can use these for welcome signs- I used them for our Will & Kate street party- so the next one will be ours!

Stationery


This one is all Matt again...designed at home in our office, these are just some of the bits of stationery Matt has designed- the menu and the invite. We also have the order of service and lots of other bits and pieces that we are going to have printed. It's a handy skill that Matt has!

Easy Table Plan

This one is really easy...and completely editable! I think it looks quite effective (and apologies for the mess of blankets on my sofa!)
It's just a mirror we had up in our old house (haven't got round to hanging it in the new house!) and I've drawn out the table plan using a white liquid chalk pen- which you can just wipe off with a tissue. We're just going to stand it on an easel outside the marquee...

If you are coming this is just the draft table plan! ;-)
