did you see this awesome way that an LIW bride supported a shelter where she volunteers?????

Link to bride's review

Sorry if this is someone who already posts here or already told the story here. I LOVED all of these ideas. I thought it would be neat if those of us with LIW accounts could go back and post some nice commentary about her ideas!!!! Here is the text of the part about the shelter, with a copy of a photo she posted (this is from the bride's review, in her words):

Favors, Table Numbers, Place Cards: A+++
Instead of favors, we sponsored a kennel at the animal shelter where I volunteer. Another volunteer created table numbers for me that featured pictures of dogs who have been adopted, and I made scrolls for each place explaining the donation and telling the dog’s story. We had a lot of dog people attend and they all loved this idea. It was also really touching for me to look around and see pictures of the animals I’ve loved at each table. (DH wouldn’t let me invite the dogs to the wedding).

For the place cards, I used one of the DIY kits from Michael’s and attached dog stickers to each one – if I knew the favorite breed of the guest, that’s the kind of sticker they got! I heard that when one guest couldn’t find her card, another guest said, “what kind of dog do you have? Look for that one and you’ll find your place!”
