Truth be told, I am a DIY girl at heart! I absolutely love to be crafty, creating and recreate all kinds of projects. And when it comes to weddings, I get excited when I hear a bride wants to do projects to help make the wedding reflect her and the groom that bring in a glue gun!
On the 19th I was able to share on AM Northwest just a few things about DIY and how I like to bring it into a wedding. With only six minutes to share, we barley scratched the surface of what I wanted to say and do. Below you will find a few more of the notes I had planned to share, but really, if you are a DIY bride I would love to get a chance to meet and create with you!
- Don't do any projects that have/need to be finished or put together on the wedding day or the week before for that matter!! Some examples would be...
- Make your own bouquets
- Cook your own food
- Assemble floral arrangements
- Know that actually making things yourself can be more costly than having a professional do it. Some examples would be...
- Printed things like invitations, programs, ect.
- Dessert/candy bars
- Floral
- You don't have to be crafty to diy something for the wedding
- Create the invite with the designer
- Pick your playlist with the dj
- Bring a family receipt to the caterer or baker
- Utilized Pinterest for inspiration
