Word find, part 2

In May, I made the word find for our wedding. It was a LOT of fun to incorporate places and activities and people into it.

So here's the actual word find that we had at each place setting at our wedding. If you're planning a wedding or other special event and would like me to configure a word find with words that mean something to you, email me!

Pens and envelopes arrived

The blue pens for the word finds and the envelopes for the invitations arrived this week. So once I figure out how to print on the handmade envelopes, I can mail the invitations. I love how you can plant these envelopes and watch wildflowers grow! I'll be including the instructions that came with the envelopes.

Maybe after I send the invites, I'll post pix of them on this site. So you can see what Paul was raving about.

And once I have Paul and Maggie and Liz and my mom check the word find I made, I can roll them up and we'll be all set.

Then for decorating the flower girl basket and making all the frames. We're ahead of schedule in many ways, so getting away this weekend to attend Brett and Sara's wedding will be just what the doctor ordered for THIS engaged couple! It'll be nice to focus on Sara and Brett for a few days and get my head out of my own preparations.

Word find

I'm often torn between revealing too much in this blog so as not to have any surprises on 9/1 for the guests and wanting to share everything I'm doing.

I'll give it up this time.

I have created a word find with 75 words pertaining to our life together. Trips, hobbies, interests, you name it. Of course, there are also a fair share of wedding words that can really be used by anyone getting married. The leftover letters spell a message to our guests.

I've printed out the word finds on regular paper, which I'll roll up, tie with a ribbon and stand up in a tall glass or vase I have yet to buy. One bunch per table.

When providing things to write on, you must provide something to write with, so we've ordered 100 pens inscribed with our names and wedding date. These will, I think, be hung inside each word find. We'll have extras, as the guest list is right around 100, including kids.
