Spotlight Vendor : JK Imprints

I am so proud to introduce a wonderful vendor to you all! JK Imprints is such a great shop. They specialize in imprinted beverage, luncheon & dinner napkins. This is such a great way to brand your wedding or event...at an affordable price {always looking for a great deal}! Kapi & her mother own this up & coming business. Most importantly though, I cannot tell you how inspired by Kapi's story.
 
 
 
A couple of years ago a little calendar boy for St. Jude children's hospital named Big
Ben captured my daughters heart.  Chasten decided to raise money to
help kids with Cancer. She started with a Lemonade stand; then
garage sales, craft shows, picking oranges to sell and donated the
proceeds to St Jude Research Center. Shortly after her donation she
received a phone call from Ben's father thanking her for what she
was doing.   She received a letter from St Jude in 2009, inviting her
to come to the Center for a tour and to meet some of the children.
She was invited again in 2010.  Little did we know her baby brother would be diagnosed with a rare aggressive tumor in his right hand and we would actually have to use St Judes who we had donated previously for three years.  He baby brother battled this rare tumor for two years as it kept reoccurring. Which motivated Chasten even more she is donated nearly $10,000 to St Judes since she was in 1st grade. Caden has been tumor free for almost two years and we will continue to help St Judes as St Judes will never turn a child away because of the inability to pay.

We have always wanted a family owned business so this was the
natural next step.  We opened JK Imprints and now have a
production team experienced in quality work and service. We will
continue to support St.Jude and donate a portion of our sales  to
help Kids With Cancer    I’m a proud mom.
Our sincere thanks for visiting our website

Where to Stand During Ceremony

Your wedding planner should explain where everyone will stand & how everyone should walk in for the ceremony at your rehearsal. Just a heads up on how you will, more than likely be arranged, I've provided you a diagram. You can pass these out to your attendants for their memory.

This is from the guests view.
I hope this helps! :)

DIY Chalkboard Paint

Chalk boards are a HUGE craze, not just for weddings & parties; they are useful for ANYONE! Chalkboards make fun home decor, teachers can make little chalks boards; I could go on & on. If you purchased a tiny little bottle of chalkboard paint from the craft store, it could cost you $6...PER COLOR! I have a recipe that can cost you $1 per color! Need I say more?
  
Mix 1 tablespoon of unsalted grout powder (you can purchase this at your local home improvement store) per small bottle of acrylic paint.
Viola! Easy Peasy! The grout powder will last you a very long time!
 
Enjoy the possibilities
