wedding wednesday

This weekend was going to be a very productive wedding weekend but plans changed. We were going to go to Austin to pick up my dress and look at bridesmaids dresses (and shop for clothes) but we can't now and it makes me sad. Because now I have to work all day Friday and Saturday. Boo. We will be going in a couple of weeks though. Matt was going to come with us but now he isn't even coming here because I have to work and he has a project to work on. We are going on like 4 weeks without seeing each other. I don't like that.
Anyways I wanted to share with you something way cool that we are thinking about doing for our send off after the reception. The lady that is doing our catering told us about sky lanterns. I looked them up and fell in love with them! How can you not?

So I started doing a little research on them and apparently there is a lot of negative things being said about them. Fire hazard and pollution being the top two. So now I will just have to think about it more and hope we get some rain closer to the wedding (so there won't be a burn ban in effect). If we don't do these we will probably do sparklers.

What do you think about them? Have you ever used them?
