From Brittany…
Half of the arrangements were made by our florist and we put together the remainder, using boxes that were made by my grandfather. We painted the wood boxes chocolate brown and then filled them with grass, Gerber Daisy’s and golf balls that were printed with our wedding logo.
It was actually a ‘dry’ wedding and we served Virgin Cosmos, Mocha Mint Espresso Cocktails, Baby Bellini’s and Arnold Palmers. As guests left the ceremony, they were met with tray passed appetizers and Pink Sparkling cider in glasses adorned with tags announcing our marriage.
A friend of ours who has a greeting card business on Etsy printed out the invitations, programs and menu cards for us and we put them together. My mom designed and printed the table name cards and chair seating cards. The invites were mailed with post-card reply cards and a map that was designed by another Etsy vendor!
Mom and I designed and made the table favors which were pink and brown candies adorned with pink and brown ribbon and a personalized sticker.
The monogram with the heart is gorgeous, I even love this heart :-)
Would love to know the name of your vendor or the address of the Etsy shop!
Where did you get the cupcake stand? I've been searching for one that size....thanks for sharing!
Hi Christine:
The monogram is from: www.truelovelogos.com. She was great to work with and very reasonable.
Hi Valerie:

Hi Brig:
The cupcakes came from www.trophycupcakes.com and the stand automatically comes w/it. Usually when you have cupcakes, the vendor you go with, will provide it or you can pay an extra fee and rent it from the vendor.
Good Luck!
hi brittany,
we are having a dry wedding as well - i'd love to see a picture of your "virgin" cocktails. i thought about this idea, but didn't know if it would be strange to do!
Beautiful!
Curious where you got the golf balls done?
Thanks!
Hi Jessica:
We are so thrilled with the way our dry wedding went. It was not strange in any way @ all. It was just different (with no alcohol).
Unfortunately, we do not have any pictures of the mocktails, but here are the names of the ones we had:
Virgin Cosmo – Muddled limes w/Cranberry juice & 7up
Mocha Mint Espresso Cocktail – ½ shot espresso/chocolate mint syrup/half & half
Baby Bellini’s – Peach Nectar w/Sparkling Cider
Arnold Palmer – Iced Tea with Lemonade
They were all delicious and everyone loved them :)
Good Luck and let me know if you have any more questions...
Hi Kristin:
The golf balls were adorable :)

Have Fun!
Did you order your pink sparkling cider in bulk? If so, what brand?
thanks for answering my other question so quickly!!
Hi Jessica:
No, actually the place we got married @ provided it (of course @ an expensive price, ha). Unfortunately, a lot of vendors will not allow you to bring any outside food/drinks. However, I think all it is, is sparkling apple cider with food coloring :). But it turned out amazing! I have a picture, but I can't remember if it really shows the actual cider. I will be happy to e-mail to you if you would like.
Thanks!
The pink cider was "Martinelli's"Cranberry-Apple Sparkling Cider
Hi Jessica:
Oh oops, duh! I am not sure what I was thinking. Can't remember everything. It was wonderful whatever it was...
Thanks Colleen!
