Toni & Bobby's Shabby Chic wedding PJ & TR (SBP/Attic/UK) 2/2/09 *COMPLETE*

[irisbud]

Love the invites, Toni! I don't think you sent them out too early for a WDW wedding, as you need some final counts earlier than you would at home. I sent mine out eight weeks ago, and your wedding is only like 10 days after mine . I might have been a little early : As for the stamp: I think people who were going to send them back will regardless, and people who weren't wouldn't even with the stamp. I stamped all of mine and got one card back

WoW the invitatons are gorgeous!!!1

 

[ClemsonGirl]

Wow Toni I LOVE the invites!! They came out amazing!

I totally understand the frustration of your DF's dad saying he might not come. When we initially told DF's brother about having the wedding at Disney he said he was excited, but now is saying he might not come. And it is only one state down for him! He comes here to South Carolina all the time but can't go down to Florida ONCE for his brother's wedding? So frustrating.

I love them Toni!!!
I like the backdrop as well - you could put them in a catalog!

Thanks Meg!!! I got bored one night and said, hmm...let me do a little background for them. I thought it would look nice in a scrapbook!

Your invites came out so great!!!! That sucks about the stamp but at least everyone is still returning them. It seems like people usually have a LOT of trouble getting those back.

Thanks Val! Yeah the stamps did suck but I figured oh well to late now. It seems that some RSVP's came in and now its halted! I don't know, I always send RSVP's back as soon as I get them.

You're invites really do look amazing. I bet you are so excited with the big day getting so close. I can't wait and it's not even my day lol.

Thank you!!!! I am getting very excited now. I can't believe how fast time flies by!

So beautiful, Toni!

I can tell you right now, you're going to be a getting a lot of compliments on them! That was one of the best parts of all the planning... hearing positive feedback on all your hard work!

Thanks Jennifer!!!! I did hear some comments back from family and it did make me feel good. You always do things for your wedding to be beautiful and to make yourself happy but its really nice to hear great feedback on the selections I made.

Wow your invitations are just beautiful Toni!!

Wow, i'm suprised, and very sorry, that Bobby's dad isn't sure he is going! That just completely blows my mind.

Thanks Jennifer! Yeah I don't know what it going on with his dad. Its silly. I feel bad for him but hopefully his dad will come to his senses.

Toni -- Your invitations came out so well! They are absolutely gorgeous! I know it must feel awesome to have them out.

Thanks!!!!! It really does feel good to have them out!!!! That really makes it seem like its all coming together now and its almost here!

Thank you! Thank you!!! I think you are right! You can't be to early for a destination wedding. You do need to turn in numbers a little bit earlier than a normal at home wedding. I don't think we sent them out too early. I think we are both good! I wish you were still going to be in Disney while I am there! I would have loved to have met up!! Maybe if we go back for our anniversaries we can meet!

Toni ~ your invites are beautiful! I love the way you took the pics with your flowers behind them! They look like professional pictures!

Thank you!!! I figured I would try and make the pictures more interesting..plus I was really bored.

Thanks so much!!! Sorry to hear about your DF's brother!
I hope he decides to go. Bobby is calling his dad tomorrow to see if he is going or not. If he isn't Bobby has decided to invite an Aunt and Uncle that we couldn't fit in to the guest list. Its really sad that a father even has to think about it.

Oooohh, I am in love with the Napoli dishes pattern - I may be finally tempted to replace my 30 year old dishes I got them when I was 17, LOL and now, I am 48

You invites came out so beautiful, Toni!!

 

[irisbud]

Yes, it is too bad. Meeting up would have been fun!

Randy's mom isn't going to our wedding either He seems okay with that, but it is frustrating. Hopefully Bobby's dad will come through. If not, maybe it's for the better, KWIM?

 

[adisneygal]

I love the invites! The whole shabby chic theme is awesome and will work so well in the Attic.

 

[Flurbee]

Toni,

Those invitations look awesome!! Oh well about the stamps, I guess there is nothing you can do now, plus I agree with what someone else said, they will get sent back or not regardless of the stamp.... Good job!! It is all coming together now!!

 

[trudy88]

I just love the whole Shabby Chic theme. That's the way we've decorated our house.
I bet your guests can spring for a stamp!

Thanks!!! I had never really paid much attention to Pfaltzgraff but Bobby loves it and he actually picked the Napoli pattern. The colors really match how I am going to decorate the house so its perfect.

Bobby said he doesn't even care any more. He is going to call his dad soon and see what he is doing. Its pretty sad really.

I love the invites! The whole shabby chic theme is awesome and will work so well in the Attic.

Thank you!!!! I loved visiting the Attic. I wasn't sure about it from the pictures but it is SO much better in person than in the pics. I love it now. We are wedding twins!!!

Thank you!!! Yeah they are out now without the stamps. I rushed and thats what happened...lol. They can deal with it and just stick the silly stamp on to mail it back!

I just love the whole Shabby Chic theme. That's the way we've decorated our house.
I bet your guests can spring for a stamp!

Thank you! I LOVE shabby chic. THe colors are so pretty and I wish I could do our future home that way but Bobby is NOT about pinks and those colors in the house.

Favors Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ​

So Bobby finally got off his butt and did the drawing for our favors! They came out fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, so my DF Bobby draws cartoons. We thought it would be a nice personalized favor for him to draw a cartoon picture of us, in wedding attire, and put it on something using Cafepress. So we decided on mugs. Everyone can use a mug! I had the idea to get some coffee and cocoa to put in with the mug to complete it. I figured since we are having a Disney wedding, I would use Mickey Coffee and Cocoa! So when I went on my planning session trip, I bought a bunch of Mickey Coffee and Cocoa at DTD.

Bobby was supposed to have the favors done a while ago but he got a little lazy with it. I nagged him endlessly until he finally did the drawing and we submitted it to Cafepress. We just got the mugs!!! So here are some pictures of the mugs and how I will be packaging them up.

Now we also have two 3 year olds coming and we obviously couldn't give them a mug and coffee! So we went to the Disney Store and, in keeping with the whole mug/cup theme got these along with a stuffed animal in lieu of the coffee/cocoa!

and this is how they are wrapped. I had to make little name tags so that we can designate the babies from the adults. I thought I would make little mickey head name tags out of some cardstock I had left. I made a template using a soda bottle cap and a gatorade bottle cap. Hey it worked!

Well those are my favors!!! We also made t-shirts for ourselves to wear on the honeymoon with the picture he drew. You can see the whole picture much better on the shirts since its laid out flat.

Mine is pink and his is white

I have pictures of some things for my tea but I will save those for another installment next week. I can't believe I am less than 2 months away now! It's insane!!!!!

Great Favors Toni!! They are so original and cute!!!

 

[jennifaerie]

Holy cow, Toni, those are absolutely amazing! He has quite a bit of talent.

Your guests are getting so spoiled. I hope they appreciate all the work you two have done!

I had to giggle when I saw the font you used for your names... I kept thinking, Wow, that looks really familiar. We used it on our programs. So when I saw "Robert", I thought, WOW. Where have I seen that before?

I forget we both have "Roberts" since we never call them that!

 

[bridetobe789]

Wow!! Your favors are absolutely amazing!! Your DF is really talented! I'm sure everyone is just going to love the favors!

 

[figmentfan814]

Your favors are so cute, what a great personal touch! That will be a great thing for your guests to keep for years to come!

Btw~ what dates are you going to be in WDW? DH and I are going for our 1st anniversary Feb. 7-13. Just curious if we'll be in the World at the same time
