KITSCHY PEN TABLE FLOWER GUESTBOOK (&others)

This idea is perfect for a fun springtime wedding! Picture it: the table is covered in green grass, and guests can “pick” a flower pen, use it to sign your guestbook, and then keep the pen as a wedding favor!

Materials Needed:

• fake flowers — Fake flowers are pretty easy to find at thrift stores (consider buying them there to recycle materials) (50 head £12.00 ebay)
• floral tape (£1.65 two rolls on ebay
• pens (£6.00 for 60 ebay)
• tags
• string
• fake grass — enough to cover your tabletop 1.5 times (I got mine here)
• wire cutters
• hole punch
• scissors
• utility knife

Red envelopes are traditionally given by chinese people on days of celebration filled with money. instead, we asked that all guests at our wedding participate in our ceremony by writing their wishes for our marriage on a card and placing it in the red envelope. the bridespeople and groomspeople walked down the aisle with baskets and collected all the wishes from the guests, then placed it at the altar. we were then married surrounded by everyone's good wishes for our marriage. each envelope had a number written on it, from 1 to 60. We will open all envelopes labeled "1" on our first wedding anniversary, all envelopes labeled "50" on our 50th wedding anniversary, etc
