Wedding planning and my daughters 16th birthday

Due to my love of old bottles I got a really good idea for my wedding centerpieces (with help from Pinterest for the inspiration). I’m going to spray some wine bottles with spray paint, others I will coat in glue then cover it in glitter.
Each table will have a slab of wood with a few different sized bottles on it and a candle. Some of the bottles will have flowers in them.
So I went down back of my house and searched for old bottles. I found some cool ones I will keep and display in my house but others I will do what I described above. I’m going tomorrow to pick up a box of empty wine bottles someone is giving me.
I have to decide if I want the tablecloths to be pink with purple decorations or vice versa. The centerpieces should be very inexpensive to make and I’m excited to see how they turn out.
My boyfriend decided he wants to have an engagement party which will be in about a month so I started spring cleaning today.
Tomorrow is my daughters 16th birthday. I’m taking her and her boyfriend, my son and my boyfriends son to get food at Little Ceasers. I’ll have to order it then we will have to sit in my car to eat it. We will come home and after my boyfriend is out of work we will have cheesecake and Lofthouse cookies.
I mowed the lawn today so it will look nice for this weekend. Saturday we are having a very small get together for my daughter. A cook out in the back yard. There we will serve cake and ice cream among other things.

@JESSY3236 I got rid of so many over the years I wish I had kept more. I’m redecorating my kitchen with them.

All exciting news you're sharing. Happy Sweet Sixteen to your daughter. She must be excited about her birthday this year.
Have you set a wedding date?

@Marilynda1225 She said it was the best birthday ever because her boyfriend was there.
We set the date for Friday July 30, 2021 but now it might be the following year. We have things to talk about.

@Courtlynn she had a great little birthday party. We all enjoyed being able to see each other again. She hadn’t seen her boyfriend in a few months same with my parents and sister.

@FayeHazel I can’t wait to see it actually set up. I’ll have to make some ahead of time to see if it looks as nice as I’m picturing in my head.

@Behindtheguitarbar thank you. Interesting name you have here. My 12 year old son loves the guitar.
