Bride and Groom

My son is getting married August 5th and so I am making these to put on the tables for the luncheon. I will put mints or something like that in them. The groom was cut at fit to page and that made him 10 1/4" when I did the bride at fit to page it made her 11 1/2" so she was bigger than the groom. So I cut them both at 10 1/4". I embossed the front of the bride added pearls and organza ribbon, for the groom I made a little rose flower and glued it on. The rose is a die from MFT. So now I have to make about 60 of these.
