It was kind of wild but it ended up being a really fun send-off. Just make sure you have a few authoritative people coordinating the effort, lots of candles to light them off of, and possibly a fire extinguisher on hand. I mean, just look at this photo: http://www.flickr.com/photos/j…487237563/

Good luck!! Where is your wedding?

I'm so excited to see a Nashville wedding on here! It looks like you had sparklers going on in a couple of the photos. I want to do them for my wedding on November 6th, but according to the web, it is much more difficult to get them all lit and coordinated for photos of the b and g exit. Any advice?

Thank you so much! It was a meaty good time.

Thanks Jessica! This ended up being so helpful for us. We were going to go with a certain baker before our vendor told us how many disasters had come out of that bakery and recommended a lovely woman who bakes cakes out of her home. Our cake turned out absolutely amazing. I'd be hyping her here but she's retired now!

We used Catullus 5 and e.e. cummings' "i carry your heart." Thanks for reading!

Love this wedding. Can you tell us what lit quotes you used… I'm looking for something different. I also want to use selections from literature, not the Bible. Thx

Congratulations!
I love your advise:"Ask the folks at your venue for their recommendations."

Fried chicken FTW! I love vegans as much as the next guy and lean more toward the vegetarian than the carnivorous myself, but it's SO refreshing to hear about a bride who's not afraid of a little meat on here! Also, beautiful wedding. Love the literary readings.

Aw, how sweet, lots of kisses . 5 is beautiful, but I've also always been fond of Catullus 45 for romantic moments.

Of course, the only one I have memorized in Latin is Catullus 16. My poor, poor Latin professor.

any tips?? I'm not a quilter and I'm a little cowed by the project. Especially because a lot of guests did NOT observe my request to leave a little room around the edges for stitching!
