Our love for movies!

I have been hesitant to put any pictures of the wedding on the blog, because I have been waiting for the professional pics to come in. Any day now!

But I figured I could start to share some of our favorite details........
So some people have a theme with their wedding.......like the ocean, or a winery, or tuscan Italy..... we just wanted it to be about us and things that we love together......and of course, if you know Casey and I, we love to watch movies!!!!

All of the escort cards that told guests where they were sitting were fake movie tickets that I made through Publisher. It had both the name of the table, which was a movie, and the number of the table (like in the theaters when the movie you are seeing is in theater #6).



To present the escort cards to the guests, we made popcorn boxes and stuck all the movie tickets inside. Casey was the one in charge of this design, and he did such a great job I thought! We ended up buying popcorn boxes from Diddams, spray painted them silver and then glued on a small movie poster of the movie that corresponded with the name of the table. Then I helped glue caramel corn into each box....that was fun, yet smelly! (I was using silicone glue.) We added our antique popcorn maker as a cute nostalgic accent.

So then, at each table, there was a frame with the same movie poster. All of the movies were named after movies that Casey and I saw in the first year we were dating. There is proof in the frame, as I put each ORIGINAL movie stub from when we saw the movie. Yes, I saved them all! You'll see that this was the movie that we saw on February 13th--my birthday! Which was also our first date! Very fitting, so that was the name of our table!
