Our Wedding Map

We are LESS than two weeks away from our wedding day - can you believe it!?

I went back and forth so much, trying to decide what we were going to do for our guest book. 
I wanted something that we could actually "see", and something that would be a little different. 

Well the idea itself, I kinda store from my sister-in-law Betsy, who did the same thing a few months ago for their guest book. I'd like to think that she was totally OK with it :) 

One of her best friends is the talented Natalie, over at NattyMichelle.  She also has a fabulous Etsy shop.

One of my favorite things she does are wedding maps.  I've mentioned it on the blog before, but I wanted to share with you the map she drew, and painted for Michael and I's big day! 




She did a FABULOUS job capturing the main events of our big day, along with adding a few touches that represent Michael and I.  I am obsessed! 

The idea is to get the map printed, and set on a large frame with a white mat all around for people to sign.  We can then frame it, and hand it wherever we like as a souvenir!  
I love it!
