What a great idea! I love the combination of white tulle, terra cotta, and the soft clover green ribbon. Putting the tiny pots in a bird bath is such a nice touch!
We had an outdoor garden wedding and we couldn't throw rice because it's bad for the birds; so we did the bird seed too. We just wrapped it in little snips of tulle...which was a mess to do! What a cute cute cute idea!
When my husband and I were married 42 years ago they threw rice. That was the thing back then, You got married and they threw rice. Come to find out , now, that birds cannot digest rice. If I only would have known............
cute... cute ... cute... what a clever idea... at my niece's wedding we were not allowed ANYTHING... not even bubbles... I love this... you are way creative.
That is adorable! I love the idea of the birdbaths. I can't wait to see how you decorate everything!
My brother was married 3 weeks ago and we blew bubbles as they left the reception. They had a cute little card printed and tied to the bubble bottle (along with little rings) that had their name, the wedding date, and a thank you.
By George...girl...you have GOT it!! Love that idea...and the birdbath makes it all them more special! Great ideas...talk to you soon! See, now I may have to include you in on my little wedding ministry!!
Hello Sweet Tina,
You continue to amaze me! How adorable is that idea? They look so cute clustered together. I know the whole wedding will be very special. Love all your ideas!! Have a great evening. Hugs, Rosemary~
Oh How very lovely an idea!! I hope you mail me an invite to the Wedding , Tina- Maybe my husband would help me finance a way to get there! lol- I am serious!-heck, he said himself the other night-"Honey I think you need a vacation somewhere besides N.D. to go to!Honestly since Mom is gone & the boys are so "busy" doing their thing, he is right!-Love, Valeryxo
This is so cute! I saw a show on TV planning an outdoor ceremony. They had a candy table--many different shaped vases and urns that were clear so the pretty candies showed. I immediately thought of you and how you have awesome ideas--just like the birdseed pots! God Bless Mika and her fiancee.
Tina,
This is a cute idea! I immediately thought of the place where you normally purchase your flower pots. She must love seeing you walk through the door. LOL
I know your DD's wedding will be lovely! Keep those pictures coming.
