Hey, hey there everyone.
As you know I have been away from home and preparing and celebrating for my sisters big day.
It was spectacular and I have a lot to share with you.
{pretty, pretty}
{My Family & I}
Here I am packing up to come home tomorrow.
I leave you with this photo of my beautiful sister on her wedding day.
The bouquet was inspired from a pin I shared with you last week.
ALL the pins are vintage and were bought at a thrift store.
More vintage wedding ideas to come.

The wedding pictures are so pretty. Your family photo is great! I would love to see how your sister’s bouquet was made.

Now you’re going to slap me! I accidentally linked up in the Newbie Graduates! 🙁 I don’t know how to delete it. I went ahead and linked up to number 3! I’ll just blame it on my old age! 🙂 Don’t shoot me.
Be a sweetie and have a safe trip home.

It looks like you had a beautiful day for a beautiful wedding, Debbie! Thanks for hosting!
Debbie
I have always enjoyed hopping to links at your newbie party even though I’m sort of blog middle aged myself. I think the new bloggers tend to have a great amount of excitement and ideas. The idea of expanding the party a bit can only make it even better.
Now, as to the gorgeous wedding? I LOVE her dress and that wonderful vintage button bouquet. She was absolutely beautiful, and the yellow made my morning. You and your men looked fabulous too!
Kathy
Congrats to your sister …..she is a beautiful bride! Everyone looked so pretty! I hope the weather held out for her ceremony!

Hi Debbie, the wedding and bride looks absolutely gorgeous! Your family photos is too cute also. I am kind of a cheater, becasue I really am not a true newbie grad. I found you late and only linked up a couple of times. Always wished I had found you sooner. I had blogged for 2 years just for family and friends. Partying with other blogs opened a whole new world for me.
Hugs,
Jann

Donna Wilkes
Can you say brilliant? That is what this idea of yours is. I have loved visiting with old friends and making new ones. I have been over two times and will be back again. So many creative people, so little time! Thank you so much for the invitation.
Distressed Donna Down Home
P.S. I want to get married again just to make a bouquet like that! Well, maybe not get married again, my husband would probably object. Maybe I’ll make one to carry around with me!
Beth
Really beautiful wedding! Good to hang with ya again at the graduate party!
Debbie
Wow, Debbie, beautiful pictures of the big wedding day! Lovely bouquet, too!!
What a fabulous idea! I’m still a newbie, but haven’t linked in a while because I don’t think I’ve posted anything worth linking. But going to take a look and see what I’ve got.
Thanks for a great party!! Bigger and better than ever!
Debbie 🙂
Savannah Granny
Oh My Gosh! Angie is breathtakingly beautiful. I thought it was Elizabeth Taylor! Her dress, shoes, hair, necklace, awesome bouquet and her hunk are A-1, Over The Top, The Ritz and everything else that is spectacular.
Her sister and her family are pretty darned good looking too.
I have been busy with Bob. He has had dental surgery and I don’t know if he is still hurting or just trying to drive me bonkers. He told me yesterday that he had had major surgery. Good Lord, he had some teeth puller. LOL!
I am going to try and get linked up before it closes. I think it sounds like a great idea.
Love to all of you, Ginger
Pam @ diy Design Fanatic
I love your sister’s wedding bouquet. So unique and awesome.
Kathy Moody
What a great idea! Since I’m over a 100 followers now, I picked the middle. LOL You have a huge part to play in that and I thank you so much for hosting the Newbie party each week.
The bride is so beautiful! Loved the pics, and such a great pic of your family!!! HUGS
Safe travels home.
Laura
Debbie – first of all – your sister looked so pretty on her wedding day! I love her dress – just perfect! And the vintage brooch bouquet was amazing, and I love the idea that it is a permanent keepsake too! (Wish I would have known of this idea when I got married 6 yrs ago…would have definitely wanted to do that!) Secondly – thanks for this newbie party too! I love your new idea to include graduates, and look forward to becoming one of those someday! 🙂
Pam
Better late than never, I just remembered that you were expanding the party this week. Great idea!
Daffodil Hill
Love all the beautiful wedding pictures! Looks like fun. Thanks for hosting another Newbie Party!

Debbie, your sister is a beautiful bride and that bouquet is FABULOUS!
Jennifer Rollins
Hi Debbie! Beautiful bride. Beautiful wedding!! I just love weddings and all things wedding.
Anyway, thanks for the newbie party. I always enjoy linking up, though recently I have been having trouble figuring out/remembering what day to link and your parties always seem to close so quickly, perhaps you could leave it open a tad longer? I dream of the day I will ‘graduate’ from the newbie party, but until then . . . .
Have a great week. Back to school is just around the corner!
Gail
Hi Debbie,
Someone (unknown) recommended your blog to me because I am a newbie to the blogging world. I know you’re busy, especially with your sister’s gorgeous wedding (the pictures are fabulous) but every time I check your site the link up project is close. Can you post exactly the days you will be open and when the party closes?
Thank you so much! You are helping the newbies tremendously.
Gail
Angie
Her dress is just gorgeous. I love weddings! My cousin is getting married in December and I am so excited because I have never been to a winter wedding. 🙂
Hugs, Angie
Susan
Debbie I’m anxious to see more of your sister’s wedding seating tag holder… I made that one for my daughter’s wedding and it looks the same 🙂 I love the decorated tags she used!
Here is a link to mine… http://www.homeroad.net/2012/03/wedding-seating-tag-frame.html
We loved ours and it looked great at the wedding, now I’m trying to think of a new use for it! Any ideas?
