I love Candy!

As a little girl, given money to spend at the candy store was always SUPER exciting. To carry the excitement and fun of candy to our wedding. I'm having a Candy Bar... these are pretty popular now and I'm so excited to be jumping onto this trend. Our candy bar will feature candy and snacks of white/cream and gold!

I have already purchased all my containers, the only thing left are the bags for our guest to fill with their goodies and some scoops!

Take me out to the Ball Game

Friday night my family and fiance enjoyed a Braves game at Turner Field. It has been a long time since I saw a baseball game and it was a lot of fun (even with a killer head cold). While watching the game I leaned into my fiance and mentioned that we could have had our wedding here. He looked at me like I was crazy, however in my head I think I ballpark wedding could be cute if maybe you met at the ballpark, or your first date was a braves game. Why not have your wedding be where maybe your fiance proposed on the jumbo-tron. So here is a photo board of a baseball theme wedding! Batter -up! Ideas: mini hamburger and hot dog pass hor'devours baseball card save the dates, team logo grooms cake, baseball cuff links, popcorn and peanut favors, autographed base ball seating cards, and a fire work exit.

Tea for two or two hundred

I have grown up in a house of tea drinkers. I have an antique tea cup collection and probably drink on average 5 cups of tea a day. I love finding new types of tea. It's a healthy alternative to coffee and there some unique flavors and varieties.

I really hope that every bride takes part in a traditional bridal tea. I have hosted a few and I love to give tea as favors.

Tea Forte make cute individual wrapped cone shaped tea bags. They have a wired stem (which is great to bend and hang on the side of your mug). They also make cute wedding favors if you have a cream and green color pallet. This is Oprah's favorite tea too!

I also love Mighty Leaf tea and teas from Teavana (Teavana sells loose tea so you will need to put them in tins). I used a Teavana loose tea for a bridal tea favor. I brewed a pot for the ladies then put the loose tea in small tins and wrapped in a tulle.
