I think NOT!!!
In the mean time I had to come up with some ideas for gifts for all these receptions we were invited to this summer!
The easy way out is a gift card or check, of course. But be that EXTREMELY practical, I do not AT ALL find them personal. I know how much I enjoy receiving personal gifts, so I kept thinking about what I could give/make, and finally came up with this:
An up-cycled sweater pillow with a temple silhouette featured on the front: the specific temple in which the happy couple tied the knot.
- which temple
- the color of pillow {sweater}
Each pillow took me about 1 hr 15 min to make.
I will write up a tutorial for you later so you can make some too.
Why Get Married in the Temple?
Starting our marriage out in the temple has been a great blessing for me and my squeeze. Knowing that our relationship is so much larger than this earth-life, gives us additional commitment and perspective and appreciation for each other and our marriage.
