Our Reception - special touches

This Christmas, Ben and I are finally going back home to Pittsburgh. The first time back since our Wedding (August 2010). It's crazy how time flies - and to think that I haven't seen my parents in almost a year and a half (even more crazy!).

So I thought I would relive our wedding just a little bit while I wallow in my homesickness!

These were some of the special DIY touches we included in our wedding -

ribbon, signs, diy flowers and photobooth, and homemade touches made our reception special

Oh! and we contacted our caterer from the wedding and asked if we could pick up some wedding pies for the holiday. We loved them so much but weren't able to take any back to Seattle, so this will be a real treat. If you need food or event planning in western PA, I highly recommend Rick at JPCevents.

Pittsburgh Bridal Shower and Bachelorette Party!

My Sister and Mom (with the help of my bridesmaids) hosted a lovely and adorable Bridal Shower for me last weekend (7/16) 


Country themed decor, eats, and surprises!

And instead of those awkward bridal shower games.... they hired a line dancing instructor!!

Gifts and Cards (thank you!)

For our night out we hit up the Marvelous Wonderettes at the Pittsburgh Cabaret (highly recommended - so funny!)
and then settled down to live music and countless martinis at Oliver Twist!!!
