From the get go, my fiancee (Tys) and I decided to stick to a budget. We want a nice wedding, but we want a fun honeymoon too. So with the wedding six months away, we have been slowly searching for low-priced, but fantastic decor. The other day we were shopping at Superstore from some groceries and came across these ugly lanterns...they had red metal bows on them for goodness sake! They were obviously left over from Christmas...and I almost walked right passed them...then I noticed the price, 94 cents each! And they aren't tiny little lanterns either, they're a good size! Tys took a closer look at them and figured he could remove the bows with some maneuvering with his pliers/side cutter. So we loaded up the cart with all 15 of them and did some DIY work...
For $15 I think they will look pretty spiffy down one side of the aisle. More on the cool place we are getting married at later (some nifty trivia: we will be the first people to get hitched there!) And for the record, my sister was on side with the lanterns, she didn't think they were THAT ugly, but either way, they look fantabulous now!
P.S. I don't mind if you borrow the pics that I've taken, just be sure to credit me and when possible, link to my blog. Thanks :)
