Thank you for the help and the fun ideas!! The feather vases turned out good...forgot to get a close up.
ReplyDeleteAhh, this was SO fun to see. Jessica, you're such an incredible hostess. This will be something for them both to always remember. Every detail was just right. That sign turned out awesome! I love all the elements you put into the theme. And of course your dinner looks delicious.
