Wedding Wednesday: Updates

It's been a few weeks since I've done a "Wedding Wednesday" post. I've been so busy with work and just life in general, that I haven't had the time to do it! So... today I'm updating on what's new. *Warning* Lots of pictures to follow.

And last but certainly not least, I told asked my dad if he could put something together for an entrance. Because our ceremony will be outside I wanted something to kind of hide myself from everyone until it's time to walk down the isle. I sent him this:

Fingers crossed he can accomplish something like this! I hope everyone has a fantastic Wednesday!
