DIY Brides...

I love those sheet music paper cones, would fit with our personalities, but that might be yet another idea to add to my theme and it might be a bit OTT mis-mash ?

Bit early to tell for definite, but we are hoping be making STDs and invites and the floral centrepieces and venue decorations ourselves.

I'm also going to have a go at making my own veil, and my mum will be making the BM dresses and our jackets/ boleros!

I am knitting shrugs for my bridesmaids, will get round to flashing them one day ?

I work in marketing and end up doing a lot of print and graphic design, so I designed our invites but had them printed professionally. Not sure if that counts as crafty!

I love the penguins! Is that a cake topper? It's soooo cute!!

We're going to make all of our stationery and our cakes (we're having cupcakes during the reception drinks, a 'normal' cake during the dinner and a novelty cake for the evening), our sweety station and the cookies for our favours/place names. Oh, and I forgot our Save The Dates, even though I'm in the middle of baking them!

Love the shell candles - would be fab for our theme but we're not allowed real flames in our venue ☹️ Oh well. I am doing practically everything bar the clothes and the food! I am making the bouquets, the table and room decorations, favours (if we have any) invites and all the other stationary, presents for BM, mums and so on, out postbox and party bags for the children who will be attending. I would have made the cake too but was worried I would be too stressed with that as well! So a friend is kindly making it! And H2B worders why I am starting making it all now!

Im going to be making my invites, namecards, table numers, seating plan, guest book, table centrepieces, and my auntie will be making my cake. This is all for now but there could be more. Im not the craftyest (sp?) of people but im going to have a good go!

I have made save the dates, invitations, thank you cards, place cards, table name cards, favour boxes, stockings for the kids, trivia boxes, decorated bubble pots to match our theme, buttonholes, bouquets, flower girl wand, table plan, sweet buffet tags, centerpiece flower arrangements. phew glad it's all over and in 6 days I can see all my handiwork together!

Im making the invites, table plan, table names, place names, centrepieces and at the minute i think that is it. Im not very crafty but i think i can just about manage with that much ?

Almost everything will be done by me, or my family or friends. I've remodelled my dress, decorated my shoes, made my veil and jewellery, done all stationery, cake toppers,flowers; family are making cake, playing organ and trumpet, singing, making cake.

in fact, apart from the buffet in the pub and the DJ, I don;t think we have a single external professional involved at all. Even the five clergy are all personal friends.

We have a DIY wedding!! I've made all the stationery, post box, guest book, flowers, all the jewellery, mums making cake, sisters doing most of the photography!! Think im going to have a go at the cake topper too. And what we havent made, we've got cheap or second hand from boot sales and ebay!!

I'm making soap favours for the ladies, with the help of my mother in law i'm making jam favours for the men. My best friend and I are making the bunting for the reception. I'm making my button bouquet and my flowergirl wand. Also the top cake is being made by me and my mother in law too and I'm makin my lace jam jar candle holders for the tables. Erm I can't think what else right now but there's loads more!
