Tie the Knot Thursday - 2/3/11

I am a bird lover, always have been. My first bird’s name was Woodstock, and then there was Baby, Snoopy… then Calvin and Hobbes, the last three were ring neck doves. I am currently not a crazy bird lady because Dave is not a fan of them and we made a deal… no pets. Since I don’t like cats and dogs I had to sacrifice my love of birds and fish.

So… to make up for the lack of birds in my life, I was thinking about having birds in my wedding. I can sneak some in right? Think he’d notice? What is more romantic than doves when it comes to the theme of love?

I think these would be so cute on Thank you notes after the wedding… unique and very US…

I am currently looking for local artists to do the invitations for the wedding, I want something “Colorado” and help out a local individual who is creative by heart, I found this cool design and guess what? It’s got a bird snuck in there.

Handmade treats, cupcakes with a chocolate mold design on the top. I LOVE this idea! I bet I could make soap in it as well to giveaway as favors!

I’d love to have streamers of these around my reception hall, what a beautiful way to decorate after the wedding on anniversaries! A reminder of our family and friends enjoying the evening with us!

I know these will be at the wedding. The idea of having a wish tree and then to recreate it every anniversary so we have the thoughts of all our friends and family with us makes my heart flutter.
