Jinkies! I think I know what to do! Potentially free venue. Free? Yes, thank you I will take two.
It will be perfect (as long as I get the thumbs up). Outside, by the lake, tables, chairs...all provided. I would have to do centerpieces, food, music, flowers, etc. I am making up my guest list and checking it twice. That in itself is a challenge - who to invite, who not to invite, who, if I don't invite them, will never speak to me again? I don't want the size to get out of control, but I swear my family alone is going to be 70 people! I will enlist the help of the mystery bridesmaids once they are informed. Which is going to happen soon. I promise. I plan on going out tonight to get two little things that will help me to announce to them my intentions. Then it will be a super Skype-fest in order to get their opinions and for them to tell me, "Mattea, calm down. Your eyes are bugging out of your head. Freak."
Now that I have that little venue nugget tucked safely away in the protected part of my brain, it's time to focus on getting the "treasures" for centerpieces/decorations!! I am enlisting everyone's help on this one. I want little vases, glass jars, antique looking brooches. Vases and (little) jars, preferably blue. Brooches in white or sparkly diamondy colors. Oh oh, and lanterns - you know the kind that can hold candles (or fake candles).
Here are some pictures to help you understand what I need you to help me find:

Sounds exciting. Very happy for you. My cousin got married a few weeks ago and they did the same thing with mason jars and flowers. It was simply beautiful, simple. and inexpensive. Have fun planning
