Wedding rental fun

A couple weekends ago Mike and I went to Classic Party Rentals to get an idea of what our tables would look like for the wedding. At first we were completely overwhelmed with the options and everything just seemed to be too bright or over the top for what we were envisioning. With our colors being yellow and blue I didn't want the tables to give anyone a headache. I thought for sure we would have to come back a couple times before we committed to anything. . . and two hours later we came up with this:

One of my goals was to incorperate patterns without taking on the task of making my own table linens or napkins (which I would love to do but don't have the time for). The way my patterned fabric will be incorporated on the table will be through our favors. As of now we are planning on making jam and the fabric will be tied on top of the jars and placed on each napkin.

The silverware is AWESOME! I think it will be a conversation piece but this item may change if we need to save money.

Last but not least are our beautiful chairs. I wanted something that was fitting for the venue and natural wood chairs seemed to be the perfect match. We also picked out our plates and glassware. I was nervous going to the rental company because the table linen colors was a big question mark in my mental vision of this wedding and we ended up committing to everything and had a great time. Mike even walked away excited and looking forward to the wedding. Not that he wasn't but seeing everything set-up just made everything real and we are finally seeing how things will tie together for the big day. Six months to go!

  1. LOVE it! Very classy looking.

    BTW... how do you get the light to look that way on your pics? Can I pay you for some photo lessons Ms. Lisa?
