Til death do us part…

Monday, August 16th, 2010

Till death do us part…now this is an awesome wedding theme! Not only did this wedding have an awesome theme, it was also 100% vegan, relatively inexpensive, and included loads of handmade details.

To see more wedding photos and read up on the details, head over to Etsy’s ongoing Handmade Weddings series, where the bride {Jenn of monkeyandsquirrel} shares all the splendid details of her Day of the Dead themed nuptials. Morbid…I think not! Fun and different…definitely!

Real Wedding {Kathy + Adam}

Monday, July 19th, 2010

This stunning intimate wedding was held in Fairmount Park in Philly and was photographed by the ultra-fabulous Nadine from Love Me Do Photography.  I love that every detail of this wedding seems to be so meaningful and that there are so many inspirational DIY elements!

This wedding is as DIY as it gets, from the food to the decorations, to even to the dress. Kathy actually knitted her wedding dress and even knitted Adam’s socks. You go girl!

Real Wedding {Elise + Patrick}

Monday, July 12th, 2010

This adorable DIY wedding was photographed by Our Labor of Love and although this wedding is a bit of an oldie, it’s definitely worth a revisit. Elise and Patrick were married in stunning Portland, Maine. As you’ll see from the photos below, the couple were very conscious of reflecting themselves in their wedding. The result is a sweet as pie wedding with lots of inspiring details!

The couple found an old map of Yarmouth, Maine in Portland Maine a year prior to their wedding and knew it would be a perfect image to drive the design of all the pieces throughout the wedding. The couple designed their invitations together and Elise then screen printed all the accompanying pieces to the invitation. What a seriously original theme!

The brides grandfather who is a retired Air Force Chaplin led the ceremony. Very sweet indeed!

Real Wedding {Brianna + Matt}

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

Todays real wedding couple, Brianna and Matt, were married at the Ribault Club on Fort George Island in Florida. Their amazing wedding was photographed by Our Labor of Love and their wedding photos are just dripping and oozing in beauty. I seriously can’t get enough of this wedding.

As a bargain hunter, I love that the brides dress was purchased from a Saks sample sale and her shoes purchased from eBay. This bride shows that you can look amazing without breaking the bank!

Real Wedding {Stephanie + Wil}

Monday, July 5th, 2010

Today’s real wedding features the coolest couple I have seen to date. Stephanie {a fashion merchandiser} and Wil {a senior baker} ooze a certain sparkle that just can’t be overlooked. Their wonderful Alabama wedding was photographed by the equally wonderful Our Labor of Love.

Impressively the whole wedding was completely DIY’ed with the exception of the dinner catering. The bride made the invitations, the programs, designed the candy bar, and made the corsages & boutonnieres and all of the floral arrangements & bouquets. The groom baked and made the entire dessert bar. He made French macaroons, cookie truffles, cupcakes, candied apples, and the wedding cake. Now surely that’s deserving of some type of DIY’ing award.

Stephanie wore a fitted pink dress and black veil {her dress was inspired by a Vera Wang bridesmaid dress and was made by a dress maker that she found on ebay}. Her stunning dress cost $300 in total and was complemented wonderfully by a  grey fabric flower in her hair and funky grey nails.
