Wedding Baptism & DIY Wedding Decor

Our favourite moment has to be when the light started to go down and you could hear all the fun and laughter. The golden hour sun poured in and people were dancing, drinking and discovering little bits of the wedding that we had poured ourselves into. A friend of ours hand bound and designed the guest book, and people were snapping polaroids of themselves in animal masks that we had left for the kids. There was just such a sense of fun about it all.

Our tip would be to reuse as much as you can and sell it on after. Think laterally about how you can produce bits for your wedding. Ask friends and family to contribute time to making something for you. There is no need for weddings to involve excessive spending. Support your local businesses. If you can't make something yourself, there is always someone out there with a vision. It really was hard work, but it paid off to spend all that time on the details.
