Pretty water bottles quench your thirst

Custom touches add so much to a wedding and even when your budget's tight you can still have little elements that show your guests how much you care. Bottled water is a must for an outdoor wedding in late July. 

We started with cases of water from our local 'big box' store. Ripping off the old labels was easy and gave us a blank canvas. Calligraphy-inspired labels, with the bride and groom's initials, were created on my trusty Mac and laser printed on metallic papers matching the wedding's color palette. We had a DIY session with our bride and her party to attach the labels to the bottles.

At the wedding the water was placed in shallow galvanized metal buckets, adorned with a ribbon. The buckets were filled with a bed of crushed ice. It proved to be a refreshing treat for a thirsty crowd.
