From Morgan, the bride:The wedding programs were made by hand by my matron-of-honor.  They matched the airplanes that we tossed at the end of the ceremony, during our procession.  We wanted to incorporate Andrew's career without overdoing the "pilot" theme.  After we picked the style of plane we wanted to create, it only took a few days of folding and gluing to have them complete!

Of course the biggest task was cutting all the fabric for the streamers.  I was lucky enough to find most of the fabric in clearance bins at local fabric shops.  I turned my parents dinning room into the fabric room.  The great thing about making the streamers was that they didn't have to be perfect.  We didn't worry about fraying edges since that just added to the homespun aesthetic. My goal was to create something one-of-a-kind and custom to our special day. The picture frames were spray painted and hung with airplane garland around the pie table. All the signs were handmade.  We also made the striped napkins out of fabric.
