Awesome prizes will be given ..so stay tuned ! and last i leave you with this picture ..i got this idea from Style Me Pretty .... what do you all think ? i wanted to use it as favors...but give it to my guests at the beginning of the night ?

 they are mason jars..and i figured it would be cute if people filled those cups up with their drink of choice and in pics those jars would come out? let me know what you think about that? enjoy the rest of the holiday weekend. =)

  7. I'm a procrastinator too!!! So glad to hear that you are ready for your first day! I hope it was a great one!

    I'm not sure what you're using the mason jars for (your wedding I presume), but I'm using them for my wedding reception. I'm thinking about using vinyl chalkboard labels so the guests can write their names on them!
