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.

The groom and groomsman wore grey suits from Express and the bridesmaids wore black convertible jersey dresses.

The bride wore a white eyelet Betsey Johnson dress for the reception. The dress was a perfect fit for the fun, playfulness reception. The couple also performed a surprise first dance, which is actually pretty cool and can be viewed here.

This wedding has so many elements I love, it’s got DIY elements, whimsical elements and is super original. More of Stephanie and Wil’s wedding can be viewed at Ilovelolliblog. Thank you Our Labor of Love for allowing me to share these dreamy images!
