Wedding Program

I started working on this program in January.  Our wedding was in October!  I knew exactly what I wanted, and wasn't finding it.  I found some programs that were super cute, but did not find one that had EVERYTHING I wanted.

These turned out super cute!  I adjusted boxes in word and used a ton of fonts to create it.  I also made a wordsearch on http://puzzlemaker.discoveryeducation.com/.  I copied the wordsearch into the word document and changed the font.  In order to make sure the letters lined up and it continued to be a wordsearch I had to create a graph first (in word) and then formatted the wordsearch into the graph.  (It sounds more complicated than it was!)

I had these printed at Staples.  They were printed on regular sized paper, in LANDSCAPE so I could fit the front and the back on one sheet.  The guys at Staples cut these for me too.

My wonderful Bridesmaids and family helped glue these with a hot glue gun onto colorful paper and a stick to make it into a fan.  We decorated the fan with ribbon.

This was my FAVORITE project of the wedding!

Rehearsal Dinner Invitation

Fonts.  I absolutely love fonts.  I read a lot of different things online about how to make your wedding unique and special and personalized.  I 100% feel that fonts and creativity are the way to do this!  

In this project I used: Octin Vintage, Janda Stylish Script, {skinny} jeans solid,  Intro Inline, Throw My Hands Up In the Air, Janda Celebration Script, Bohemian typewriter, FFF Tusj.  There are TONS of free fonts out there.  I would just download a bunch of free fonts and play with them until I had something I liked.

I started working on our program within two months of getting engaged.  I wanted to make sure I had plenty of time to tweak it and make it exactly as I had imagined.  Matt had to look at all 20+ versions I created and pretend that each one looked different from the one before!

When it came to the rehearsal dinner invitations, I was going to order something online.  I found really cute ones online, but either the font, or type of invitation wasn’t what I wanted.  I decided to make my own!  It was fun – did not take that long and was something I was pretty proud of!  The hardest part was formatting.  I realized that I had to complete certain blocks of text first, and others last (the Stacy and Matt script was difficult!  I kept cutting off the pretty swirls!)

Here is what I ended up with:

Savoy

Savoy... ohhhh Savoy!  Savoy is a locally owned family restaurant that will knock your socks off!  Matt and I love getting breakfast on the weekends.  We realize this is "our thing"!  I heard about Savoy from a coworker.  She had never been to Savoy before, but said they were known for their cinnamon rolls.  GIANT cinnamon rolls!

Tulsa Drillers & The Max Retropub

A few weeks ago Matt and I took an adventure in downtown Tulsa.  We went to Yokozuna in the Blue Dome district, then walked over to ONEOK stadium to watch the Tulsa Drillers Baseball.
