Wedding Wednesday

 My first wedding purchase was for my 5, soon to be bridemaids. I had been pinning lots of cute ideas when I stumbled upon these glasses. I liked the idea of festive champagne glasses to up the excitement level, but they were a little boring for me.

So, inset, this Kate Spade china.....

And a really great Etsy seller who was willing to do customizable glass work - and we've got the most adorable, personal champagne glasses ever!

After 48 hours the seller sent me over the picture of the finished product and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I forwarded it to my mom for her to have a looksie too.


 The next morning I got a panicked call from my mom - the monograms were wrong.

The glasses above have the girls middle initial as the largest letter - which is incorrect. The most prominent letter should be the first inital of your last name. I had written the girls initials out in first, middle, last name order, just assuming the designer would understand - which obviously didn't happen. Both myself, and the seller, should have confirmed understanding - but, hindsight is 20/20.

Thankfully the seller was super understanding and was able to fix the glasses quickly and get them shipped out in under a week.

Major crisis averted!


My mom was a huge help getting them all wrapped up for the girls, so when they open the box they will have their glass, and a mini-bottle of Moet. I'm pre-writing this post, so I'll have to update with pictures of the ladies reactions!

Even though my first wedding purchase got a little hairy, I couldn't be happier with the way these glasses came out and I know my girls will love them too.
