Wedding

Well pretty crazy couple weeks for me, just getting married and all. That's actually what I want to write about today. I planned my wedding all by myself, I tried to make everything as cheap as possible but still nice enough for a wedding and within my theme, which was vintage. I found tons of ideas on Pinterest.

For my centerpieces I did a photo in oil in a mason jar. It turned out really cool. This is how mine turned out and the link to how to do it  http://www.augandeverythingafter.blogspot.com/2009/08/diy-vintage-pictures-and-mason-jars.html

Now for the smaller centerpieces, I bought pint sized mason jars filled them half way with sand and put a candle in it, wrapped with twine. 

On to boutonnieres...

They turned out pretty well, And super cheap! I got 8 boutonnieres out of 3 bunches of baby's breath, for only $9! I think the twine was maybe $5? and I used it like crazy in my wedding and I still have half a roll! 

For the unity candle.. Here is how mine turned out and the link to where I learned it from..

The unity candle in total probably only costed $10

For Favors I did s'mores, having a summer wedding gave me the idea that s'mores would be a cute idea, and with the cute saying "S'more Thanks!" so this is how mine turned out 

To make 200 of them it cost about $85 including the bags and cards. 

I also made my bridesmaids bouquets, I just bought some higher end fake daisies and wound them together with flower wire then wrapped them in ribbon. maybe costed 4.50 each. 

I'll probably keep adding on to this blog as time goes on and I realize what more I did to have a nice cheap simple wedding.
