A Break in the Action - The Details

After we got ready, we had a bit of time before the ceremony.  So did the photographers.  I think this is when most of the "detail" pics were taken.

And, as a bride who agonized and DIY-ed her butt off, these are some of my favorites.  They really capture all the work I put into the planning and I'm so happy that I'll be able to look back on these in the future.

All pics from our photographer, Rodger Obley.  In no particular order...

The Invite 
(which I never got around to actually showing in its final form)

The Cake Topper
Another of our Bird Theme Items

The Escort Cards
One of my very first DIY projects

My bouquet...

A mix of clay flowers, sola flowers, feathers and ribbons

Our Card Box

Some Paper Parasols to shield guests from the sun
(too bad it was a rainy kind of day instead)

The Event Shelter with our Papel Picado, one of my main inspirations

Our Window Program...

And our Bar Menu, both recycled windows

The box that held our rings and 13 coins

A fan on each seat...  Even though it was rainy, it was warm

Our festive ceremony arch
Anthony's family made the traditional flowers for us
(you can see our ring box on the table there)

Our brightly colored sodas...  
So cheerful and a big hit with the younger guests

One of Anthony's big projects: two cornhole sets...
One set in Pittsburgh colors, one in Detroit's
