We had all been trying to figure out how to keep the arch stable when we put it together & set it up. We could use weights..........or bricks..........neither a very attractive option. Then all of a sudden on Friday, when we were working on the programs, I had a splendid idea. I bought 4 tall glass vases at the Dollar Store. Todd & I brought the purple sand & glass rocks that we used in the centerpieces for our reception and filled each vase half full with the sand................
............and the other half full with the rocks. It was definitely a God thing that we had exactly enought sand & rocks to fill all 4 vases! They worked great and looked beautiful! :)
Stretching out the net of lights to put it on the arch.
We had a lot of fun decorating..........here is a picture to prove it. The Thompsons borrowed the white columns & a bunch of artificial trees & plants from Brookdale Christian Center. So with those & the arch, we were able to transform the room from just a meeting room to a beautiful place to have a wedding ceremony. :)
The photographer let me take pictures when he was taking them........as long as I did not use a flash. I was surprised at how well the pictures turned out without using the flash on our camera. Here is a picture of Theresa & Noel.
I liked this picture showing the back of Theresa's dress & veil.
Isn't she lovely............isn't she beautiful? :)
