    Thanks hunni, I'm really enjoying it lol love the small details I know they dont really matter but Ive always liked the finer details and gadgets etc so this is right for me :-) besides its fun!

    Ok after deciding NOT to make confetti envelopes after all Ive been looking at baskets to hold the cnfetti cones instead and came across this
    confetti basket.jpg
    confetti basket.jpg

    Which has given me an idea
    We've all seen these table plans and card boxes using vintage suitcases and the way they are dressed with lace and pearls and teddy bears etc etc but I REALLY want a mirror table plan so thought this idea although fab was lost to me BUT after seeing the above I thought why not combine the two and use a vintage suitcase as a confetti cone holder instead??
    So Ive been looking around and found these

    Idea of how to display the table

    So I'm going to use these an my basis for my design
    basically Im going to get some lace fabrics and use it for the confetti cones to sit on

    (they will be cream paper covered in black lace with red and ivory confetti in) get some black lace and pearl strings and drap it here and there and then attach a little poem to the lid and just make a really nice display that will sit in the entrance way of the venue on a table by it self with a few books and a teapot with flowers in etc (like the pic below) before you go into the room!

    Been thinking of my memory table
    I want to add the photos of those we have lost to a table but didnt want people to just think I found pictures and stuck them all together so Ive been searching for a poem for awhile now which I will put in the middle and becase of the poem I'm going make a dissplay using a candle and roses
    what do you think??

    Let this candle be a loving reminder
    that someone is missing today,
    Someone our hearts still hold on to,
    As we travel along life’s way.
    Someone who made life so special,
    for all those who gather here,
    Someone who won’t be forgotten,
    But cherished from year to year.
    And now as we pause to remember,
    Let us all fondly recall,
    how dearly each of us loved them,
    and oh… how they loved us all!

    Wow, I've loved all your wedding stuff so far, but the sparklers freak me out. I have a stupid fear of them, almost to the point of panic attack if somebody comes near me with one. I think the 'wear gloves' campaign terrified me as a child. As for which displays, I prefer the top one. It's less fussy than having them separately.

    If you narrow it down to what one's you like, I'll send the links to them over!


    OWB yeah I perfer the top one two that way I could put the bubbles in one of the baskets and matches in the other!
    The only kids going are over 13 or under 6 so should be alright and the venue have agreed to provide buckets of sand to put them in after they have been used so thats good :-)

    Hi Hails, just been reading thru! Amazing!!!
    Tried adding you but your profile is restricted... its more to get a name off you for whoever it is who has done your invitations / table names/plan etc, basically wedding stationary, and the memory boxes ? If thats ok!
    Am currently looking for stationary at decent cost so any tips/names would be great!

    Loving the progress you've made so far! xx

    They are named after romantic rose names!
    I have pictures of the roses but didn't want to add them to these as it would ruin the design and they are framed so cant add to the back of them.
    SO instead we are having post card style menu's for each of the tables so what I'm going to do is add the picture of that rose to back of that tables menu with the name below it!
