Our Day by Design

Time for some of the details from our day! Ive already written about all of the DIY items but here is how everything looked on the day! The ushers welcomed everyone to the church by giving them an order of service . I ended up making too many of them but it was better than not having enough. After the receiving line, the guests were able to look at the table plan to find which table they were sitting at, then there were table names on each table.
