 |
| So much to do at this fun filled weekend wedding! |
 |
| The reception was held at a beautiful lakeside resort in the north woods. |
 |
| This wedding was a labor of love. The bride, along with family and friends work hard in the morning transforming everything into a wedding wonderland. |
 |
| The hollowed out gourds were filled with flowers from gardens of friends and family. |
 |
| Transforming the tent the green way. Everything was made from recycled or repurposed items. Months of gathering supplies and researching ideas. Check out the bride and grooms website for more green ideas for living life. .http://www.ittybittyimpact.com |

| The wedding cake's pedestal of honor. |
 |
| Tables were decorated with runners made with antique lace doilies, beeswax candles, handmade paper flower napkin rings around the cloth napkin, vases and arrangements of wildflowers, and a bottle of homemade maple syrup from the brides family sugarbush. |
 |
| The bride and grooms place at the head table. The lace tablecloth was my great grandmothers and over 80 years old. About 200 china plates were collected from estate sales, friends and thrift stores for each guest. |

| Cheers. We did it! My sister who flew in from Nashville and had a flight cancelled. They ended up driving with us six hours from the cities to home. I then began my cake decorating at two am. We look pretty good considering :) |
 |
| Vikings fans or Packers fan? The bride and groom ended up feeding each other a piece of "their" teams cake. Must be a marriage made in heaven. |
