Open House

March 19, 2013

Instead of having a reception we had an open house the night before our wedding.  Our theme was peacock colors which were blues, purples, and greens.  We had it in a church gym by Todd's house.  When you walked in there was a gift table, a place to put cards (which was a bird cage), and a guest book which was a 24X36 inch picture that had two peacocks and the guests signed their names in the peacock feathers.  We had 8 tables.  4 of them had fish as center pieces and the other 4 had vases with feathers in them.  We had a food table with cookies, hot chocolate, and cupcakes.  We also had a video slideshow of us playing with music playing in the background.  The open house was from 7-9 and we had a lot more guests than expected.  We got a lot of gifts, gift cards, and money.  We had lots of great help from both sides of the family, the Creps, Nina Jorgensen, and Bailey Mcdonald.  We can't thank you all enough for what you did.  It was very laid back and it turned out to be an amazing night!
