DIY: Water Bottle Label

Our wedding church is a regular venue without aircondition. Though, we expect that December will be a bit cold, i still consider that our wedding day may be an ordinary sunny day, so i'm thinking of having some refreshment at the ceremony- free bottled Water! With this in mind, i just created a personalized water bottle label. As you know i love DIY stuffs, i wish to discover the creative side of me (sana nga meron..hehe) and to make sure that my wedding will be more special because of my "labor of love" (relating to DIY)

Using a template i designed these on my own. With different styles and background. Feel free to comment for your personal choice. I'm having a hard time choosing my own. Love them all. (syempre love your own..hehe)

Here it is:

You too, can make your own personalized label. Click HERE to download the template.

Happy Preps!

Our Wedding Caricature

I've been looking for a professional caricature artist to do our wedding caricature. I've found Jo Acierto, recommended by most co-w@wies. He makes digital caricature. I've checked his portfolio and liked his works. Pretty cool and really nice.

But as i do some canvassing, i passed by this small booth of paintings, Rotech  at Greenbelt 1. We were there every Sunday to hear mass. Then i inquired regarding caricatures. And the lady attendant told me they do make caricatures. Right away, i hand her over our pictures as a canvass. Lead time is 3 days. Got mine on our next visit to Greenbelt chapel. Got a free upgrade to 12x18 from 8x10 (this am not sure, i forgot the original size the attendant had told me)

 So here it is.. Tadaaannnn.... Our Wedding Caricature!

I didn't like it at first. You may won't notice it but i just edited the eyes. Now it looks just fine.

Having a wedding caricature has many use especially for wedding preps. You can use it for invitations, save the date, rsvp, will you be cards, place cards, table numbers, wedding favor labels, thank you cards etc.

Here's one of my DIY project using the caricature. I plan to use it as our invitation cover.

I made it using Photoshop. From plain white background, I've used our wedding church as the background. I've also changed the red car into a royal carriage. Lastly, I've put our names and wedding date on top. Voila!

Wedding Expo 19th Edition Experience

I have attended the previous bridal fair event at SMX last Sept 10 and 11, 2011.

What's more exciting is that i got to met my fellow 2012 bride to be's on the said event. We actually first met online, in femalenetwork's forum called Girltalk. We shared ideas, tips and advices regarding wedding preps. We instantly became virtual sissies and friends. I'm just so glad to have met them personally.

I have also booked Wingdingz for our invitation.

Overall, it's another fun wedding expo experience and it was so nice meeting my fellow 2012 b2b and g2b. Nice meeting you sissies and bro's. :)
