this is a case we bought yesterday for $3.99! i could have used that to get a whole gallon of gas! oh wait gas is $4.15, guess i got a deal! something i can use forever as opposed to something that is just going to disintegrate into thin air. anyways, i originally got the idea from many, many searches for vintage themed weddings. at first i thought that we could use a vintage suitcase for people to throw cards in on the guestbook/entry table, but i saw a photo where someone used a suitcase for table place-cards, and the grand idea was set in stone. i love that i found a unique circular case with the exact green for the wedding!
here are some of the original photo ideas.
i love, love, love the doilies they draped over the sides! so cute! though i am not using the suitcase for cards, i still plan to decorate it. the top of the suitcase will have photos/polaroids of me and josh much like this:
this is also a super interesting idea, turning the suitcase on it's side and hanging place-cards. hmm! i can still do that with my circular case and maybe it won't take up too much room:
onto my next purchase! i'm pretty sure months ago i saw this at the thrift store and was going to buy it but ended up not because josh and i weren't quite engaged yet, and i didn't want to jump the gun and get overly excited with decor. so i put it back. well, it was fate that we use this little box for the wedding because it was STILL there! and it will be perfect to hold our wedding rings, for either isabella or coral to hold while walking down the isle:
