Setting up for a Party

My friends are recently engaged and my girlfriend has decided to throw them an engagement soiree. She is so excited and she knows that their wedding them is going to be farm related since they are getting married in a large old barn on Tessa's family's farm. So I've been helping her track down items for the party.

To serve drinks we've invested in some glass milk bottles. We also purchased a few to use as vases. These will both serve as drinking glasses and as favors for the guests to take home.

For the vases, she's wanting to do something similar to this photo that she found on Flickr it is by ilovebutter.

For the cake she wants to have something farm themed, but not too cutesy. So we're still working on that. Burlap cloth is to be used as table cloth covers and red gingham for place mats. If you can't tell she loves to plan a great party and get me involved as much as possible. I'm not great at these types of things but I try for her.
