My Daughter, Lana, is being married on the 13th, and I made 48 of these napkins for her. The design is from Sonia Showater. The H is calligraphy done by my dad, her Granddad. I then combined them and did the digitizing for the H. The napkins came from Bumblebee Linens and are called Hemstitched linen Dinner Napkins.

They each took just about forty minutes to complete. She loves them.

That's sweet, but actually Ben just hated weddings - too much anxiety I guess he felt. But probably more that you had to wait to the end to have cake! For the last few weddings we learned to take decorated white cake from the bakery so he could eat cake right after the ceremony :-) You do what you have to do!
