Circles and pies

I don't think I've written about my idea for a pi/pie theme, have I? So what with the whole wedding pie thing, I had an idea that we should have something super cheesy on our invites about how it's a pie theme because our love is as neverending as the digits of pi, which would also reinforce a circle theme in the decorations. Get it?? Dan shot this down but I'm still pleased with myself for the awfulness of the pun. Regardless, some circle and pie ideas I've collected recently:

(cobbler baked in jars from not martha)

(felt circle bunting from Grumperina)

(circular object coasters, including a pie, from 1canoe2 via design*sponge)

Something likely to be stained and throw out like coasters probably not worth allocating budget for, but I like the circles on circles.


(parasol or paper fans as favors in the hot weather, images from Weddingbee)

The parasols are probably too much but the fans are kind of perfect because if I've got a signature accessory in the summer, it's a trusty paper fan. Extremely useful and always causes a minor sensation when I pull it out.

First favors ideas post

Favors, ooo man, can we talk about THE wedding item I am most likely to get nuts over the crafty possibilities?
  • (from Mama G/Meghan): fortune cookies with a custom message inside, in clear plastic takeout boxes
  • various little jarred gifts from Design*Sponge: granola, tea, potted plants, pickling kit (maybe something with a pie recipe?)
  • booklet of pie & other dessert recipes collected and bound
  • mini-pie pops!! (via A Cup of Jo) Ok, clearly something that would need to be tested and see if it could be made way ahead of time...but there's just something about mini-food, I guess. [edit: more pie lollipops here]
