How do your guests know that they are on the right path to your party?

Signs!

For a recent soup party, we wanted to make certain that guests not familiar with the party neighborhood could easily find their way.

In order to direct guests:

We first included the party address and driving directions in our invitation.  A simple step, but effective.

We hung our 1^st party sign in an easy to find place as guests turned off of the highway.

Hey, Y'all! The party's this-a-way!

We tied yellow balloons onto trees that our guests could follow.  These tree balloons synced up with the turn directions in the invitation.

Follow those balloons!

Better than breadcrumbs!

A “Welcome” sign was hung at the party entrance along with some cute party flags we made and some path lights.

You have arrived!

A “Restroom” sign was hung to direct guests to the detached restrooms.

Practical and cute.

You can make your signs out of pretty much any material.  With some creativity and web inspiration, show your guests the way to your party and give them a nice surprise, too!

You can make your own directional wedding & party signs by following these steps:

Our Supplies:

All of our supplies were purchased at Michaels Craft Store. Visit www.Michaels.com for the store nearest you.

3 Craft Boards from Michaels Craft Store in standard sizes (Note: If you want to re-use your signs, I recommend getting a tight-grain wood from a hardware store and cutting your signs to size with a table saw.)

1 bottle of Martha Stewart chalkboard paint in black.  (They come in a lot of fun colors!)

Water Seal

Scissors

Pencil

Box of chalk

Chalk Pen in white

Computer (Mac in this case)/Printer/Paper for the stencil

Drill

Twine

Yellow Balloons

1) Prep your boards.  You can cut your boards to size, or, do as I did and use a stock size from Michaels Craft Store.  If you want to stain your board, do so.  If you want to water seal your board, do so after you stain it.  You may also just water seal the plain board.  Water seal keeps your sign from warping and turning color if it should rain on your signs or they somehow get wet.

2) Find a border that you want to use for your design.  I found mine online by using Google search on “scroll borders” and came across this adorable website:  http://www.weddingclipart.com.  Since I wanted to blow the border up even larger than could be done by blowing one image up on a page, we downloaded the image and took 3 separate screenshots of the design.  We imported the screenshots into iPhoto. From there, we put each screenshot onto a Word Document page and blew them up to fit each page.  Each page was then printed.  I taped the images together to make one large frame that I cut along the outer edge to make my template.  (Note: You can import your design into many programs and blow it up onto multiple pages.  But I have a Mac that I LOVE and use iPhoto.)

Cute border from www.weddingclipart.com! You can sign up and print two clip art borders for free.

3) Use your cut out border or design as a stencil.  I thought of applying masking tape directly to my board and cutting along the tape to make a masked area that I could easily roll the paint onto, but you need a tight wood grain on your board for masking tape to work.  Otherwise, your paint will seep in under the tape.  Instead, I drew the design onto each board by following along my stencil with a pencil.

4) Fill in the lines with chalkboard paint.  I purchased Martha Stewart chalkboard paint from Michaels Craft Store.  I put the paint onto a plate covered in a Ziploc (easy clean up).  Loading my brush, I pulled my brush along the drawn lines and then filled in the middle as I went.  It took a total of 3 coats for this porous craft board.   Wait an hour in between coats.

5) Let the chalkboard paint cure for 24 hours.

6) If you have a tight-grain wood and you want to re-use your signs, you must follow this step. Once cured, rub down the entire surface with chalk.  Wipe the chalk off with a dry cloth.  You need to do this step or anything you write will be permanent and leave a ghost image.  (This mostly works on balsa wood, but the grain is loose and becomes a bit bumpy. There was a bit of trace left by writing in traditional chalk.  The chalk pen came right off, though! – I always wondered why my teachers would wipe chalk over their chalkboards after they were resurfaced.  Now I know!)

You don't have to rub your sign down with chalk, but you do if you want it to be a reusable chalkboard!

7) You now have chalkboard signs!  Write or draw whatever you want with chalk, or use a chalk pen, which easily washes off with water.

8) Write the message you desire in a fancy font. I wanted a particular script called “Little Days” on my signs that matched my party stationary and other printed signs.  In order to get the penmanship correct, I printed the words onto regular printer paper.  Then, I rubbed the back of the paper with chalk.  Rubbing just the area on the reverse side of the text will do.  Next, I centered the text on my sign as I would want to rad it and traced the words with a blunt pencil.  This transferred a faint image of the text from the chalk on the back of the paper onto my board.  Last, I traced the faint image with my chalk pen.  Any mistakes will wipe off with water.  Just make sure to use permanent pen, paint or shrink wrap your board if you think it will rain!  You can always re-paint the black!  Better than drippy chalk signs!

9) Drill hang points and use twine to hang your signs. I used four hang points total (one on each corner, but set in a bit) so I could secure the sign tightly as the wind in Central Oregon can become very brisk and may have ripped the signs loose if they were not tethered.

10) Admire your handiwork and the awesome cuteness you have created!

Ready to hang!

Welcome!

Enjoy your party!

FivePine Lodge – Your Wedding Weekend Getaway in Sisters, Oregon

Cultivate a spirit of community with a wedding weekend in Sisters, Oregon.

Sisters, Oregon

The town of Sisters makes the perfect place for a destination-wedding weekend.  Guests traveling from afar will truly be on a total vacation.

One of the wonderful benefits to having your wedding in Sisters, Oregon is the sense of community you will experience even if you have never lived nor visited Sisters before.

With a population of about 2000 and about a mile long, Sisters is a cozy community that quickly embraces you and gives you a feeling of the familiar.

Invite two hundred of your closest family and friends and your guests will literally make up about 10% of the people in town.  So, everywhere you go on your wedding weekend, you will actually see faces you actually know!

Even those whom you have never met shine a friendly face and greet you at the local coffee shops and stores in town:  Merchants helpfully show you their wares, and locals wave and say hello as you walk down the street.

Best of all, with your guests in such close quarters, they will really get the opportunity to meet new people, see soon-familiar faces and feel as if they are truly a part of a close-knit group on your wedding day.

FivePine Lodge

A beautiful woodsy retreat for weekend weddings in Sisters is the much-adored FivePine Lodge.  Rated AAA Four Diamond resort and a recipient of the Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence Award, FivePine Lodge is the perfect blend of rustic and elegant.

Situated right at the end of Sisters, you can walk from the FivePine Campus (which includes FivePine Lodge, Three Creeks Brewery, Sisters Movie House, Sisters Athletic Club and Shibui Spa) to absolutely anywhere in town.

Your guests will stay in well-appointed, comfortable, stand-alone cabins or within the craftsman lodge rooms.  From here, they can walk a few steps to all of your wedding events and the town of Sisters itself.

Imagine a wedding weekend that lasted from Thursday through Sunday with a variety of things to do and ways to help your guests really get to know each other and feel at home.

Thursday

The friendly staff of FivePine and the team of Suzanne the Party Girl would greet your guests in their lovely craftsman front lobby.  Comfortable leather craftsman couches and gaming tables surround a double-sided stone fireplace.

You could surprise your guests with custom welcome bags created by Suzanne that we have filled with local treats.  Mitch & Julie of Sisters Olive and Nut Company have a wonderful assortment of local Oregon jams as well as delicious olives and pickled snacks.

Also, a gift certificate to BJ’s Homemade Ice Cream and Sisters Coffee create fun destination spots.  FivePine has seed packets of the local wildflowers and other wonderful gifts you can choose from in their gift shop and spa.

In addition to treats in welcome bags, Suzanne would include a special custom guide that coordinates with your wedding colors and theme.  Your guide would list the local hangouts and eateries in town as well as a list of organized events both the bride and groom would lead.

Suzanne will help arrange for a round of golf at nearby, beautiful Aspen Lakes Golf Course and lunch at Brand 33 Restaurant or organize a guided fly fishing tour from The Fly Fisher’s Place.  The nearby Metolius River is the perfect spot to hone your fly-fishing skills.

Other adventures can include a self-guided hike up into our National Forest along the Peterson Ridge Trail.  You can also borrow FivePine’s cruising bikes to ride around town and enjoy the sights.

Your Wedding

Your outdoor wedding ceremony will be enveloped by the glow of the afternoon sun, which will surround you and your guests and form a memory that will last forever.

House on the Metolius is a beautiful retreat where the only noises you hear are the sounds of the river, the wind through the pines and birds chirping in delight.

Cows and elk roam the pastures in the meadow near the Metolius River. Photo courtesy of House on the Metolius.

Available as a wonderful indoor and outdoor venue for your wedding or event from May through October, House on the Metolius is truly a romantic, rustic paradise.

This charming hand forged sign greets guests as they enter The House on the Metolius and again on the deck overlooking the Metolius River.

Surrounded by breathtaking views, the private resort is set deep in the Ponderosa Pine Forest near Camp Sherman in Central Oregon.

The Metolius River meanders through 200 acres of private land that has been family owned for generations.  On a clear day, spectacular views showcase a snow-capped Mt. Jefferson and Three Finger Jack.

Early mornings, elk are frequently seen languishing on the meadow and drinking from the clear, spring-fed river.

View of The New Lodge which has a view of the river's bend and the meadow below.

According to House on the Metolius’ Wedding & Event Coordinator, Pam Addington-White of Splash Events, “The setting is unbeatable for those who want to be in nature and be surrounded by beauty.  There is no other venue like it.”

“Large or intimate, simple or extravagant, the House on the Metolius is the perfect setting for any couple. Arriving by horse drawn carriage in the Meadow or by a Model-A with the mountains in the background.  Standing next to the Metolius River for your ceremony. The options are as big as your imagination.”

The serene beauty of The Old Lodge. Photo courtesy of House on the Metolius.

The two locations available on-site for weddings and events are The Old Lodge and the Meadow on the Metolius River.

The Great Room in the Old Lodge. You can imagine your guests dining in the rustic beauty of the 1926 Old Lodge with a view of the Metolius River. Photo courtesy of House on the Metolius.

Pathway to The Old Lodge leading to the catering kitchen and the wrap around deck.

The Old Lodge is equipped with a large full-sized kitchen and it would be easy for catering to set up. Catering can even drive their vehicles right up to the kitchen to unload and set up.

The full-sized kitchen in The Old Lodge is perfect for catering to your guests. Photo courtesy of House on the Metolius.

“A small, intimate wedding could be held inside with a long family style table and the fireplace glowing or a ceremony outside on the lawn and a reception on the deck, or the ceremony on the deck for either a large (100 people) or small wedding.”

View of the winding river from the deck of The Old Lodge.

You could begin your wedding by greeting guests in the Old Lodge for a cocktail hour and tray-passed appetizers. Then, you could have your guests circle around you with the fireplace framing your ceremony.

The original 1926 fireplace in The Old Lodge would make a lovely backdrop for a ceremony with some added flowers and greenery.

The Great Room in The Old Lodge has a long bank of windows with a view of The Meadow and The Metolius River. Photo couretsy of House on the Metolius.

You could have your guests walk down the path toward the river’s edge for your ceremony. Chairs can be set up on the meadow.

Path from the entrance through the meadow where elk enjoy grazing in the early morning hours.

Following your ceremony, you could either have your cocktail hour (while you take your wedding photos) or your reception in The Old Lodge or in a custom tent that can be enclosed and heated on The Meadow next to the river.

For guest counts over 100, you can tent and heat an area in The Meadow right next to the Metolius River.

Imagine this as the view from your wedding ceremony location. Photo courtesy of House on the Metolius.

Pam shares, “The Meadow can accommodate 300 people either under a big tent or out in the open.  Ceremonies can be held in a number of desirable locations and a reception with dance floor, beautifully decorated tables and catered food for a buffet or sit down dinner reception.  The grounds are so expansive that there are a lot of options to make a bride and groom’s wedding tailored to fulfill their dream.”

A dance floor can be set up and music and dancing can go into the night until 9:30 pm with events ending at 10 pm.  With prior approval, your event could continue later for an additional fee of $150 per hour.

You can also book a cabin for your wedding night or honeymoon.  House on the Metolius has five cabins which can each accommodate 2-4 people.  All cabins include bathrooms with showers, complete kitchens, sitting rooms, fireplaces, decks and BBQ grills.  Restaurants and supplies are nearby in Camp Sherman, Suttle Lake, Black Butte and Sisters.
