Diy your wedding

Oh I'm gonna get crafty for my decor for sure! I think I'm more of a Thrift Flipper than a DIYer though. I'm probably going to make my own wood signs or glass ones using old picture frames or even an old window for the seating chart. We got an old mail box from an antique store that s going to be our card box.

We're going to try and DYI some greenery garlands for the tables because those are hella expensive to get from the florist. We'll do a test run of this first to see how it holds up and how long it lasts. And if they're a total pain to make.

I diyed my flowers origami roses

I printed out the welcome package information at home and the heaven note for guest book signing.

Hurricane lamps and small gold wreath were bought having black ribbon hot glued on the head table centerpeices.

Wedding progeams printed at home 2 sided and folded glued onto the stick.

This is beautiful Helena! Melissa in the community is growing her own flowers and using baby breath, you should check out her ideas! My decoration plans I think you two would get along Do you have ideas in mind for your hairstyle?

Emilie , it will be more rustic barn/natural! We found Colors that we really like, light blush, green a little bit of orange but light as we'll.

Hey Helena! That's such a great idea! You'll see there are very crafty brides with lovely ideas in here. Here are a few discussions so you can meet them

DIYs for your wedding! Share your pictures!

What style did you choose for your wedding? Is it more of a rustic barn style or elegant?

I have always thought DIY would be so much fun and a great way t save money! We created our own invitations out of an old postcard photo. I'm planning on using our bouquets as table center pieces. As we are having a very small wedding (we only invited 6 couples) we decided to forgo a lot of the frills. Good luck!

I have loved working on all the DIY projects me and my FH have created!! it has allowed us to be creative and give our wedding some real personal touches and it also has saved us some money !! its been great !! only a few more to go !

Thank you both for your answer, we don't have plans 100% sure we found great ideas on Pinterest and here for center pièces, flower crown for me, some for the tables and chairs. Thanks for the advices at michaels I didn't know about it

DIY is definitely fun and as Valerie said, there are a lot of crafty brides on here! I had so much fun putting together our chalkboard signs, welcome bags, centerpieces, escort cards, guestbook, etc and it was really nice because people noticed the little details we put into everything!

One thing to keep in mind though is that while DIY is fun and makes things more personalized, it doesn't always mean that it will be less expensive. Depending on the project and amount of materials you need, it can get pricey! For that reason, we left some of our projects up to the professionals, like our paper flowers and invitations. (Though Valerie has been making some beautiful paper flowers!) If you do plan to do DIY projects, make sure to sign up for Michaels' coupons because they're always doing great deals!

What sort of projects are you looking to do?

Oh this forum is full of crafty DIY brides (myself included). I'm making personalized board games for our centerpieces, made the invitations, my bouquet (paper flowers), table numbers, I'm also working on making place cards, escort cards, guest book, ring box, and various decorations.

What projects do you have in mind to make?
