DIY Wedding Decor

In 2011, within three months of each other, my two oldest daughters got married DIY-style.  I thought  I would share a few of my favorite pictures of the DIY items from their weddings.
 
 
We made all the flowers for this wedding by hand.


 

This Photo Wall was a huge hit!  Three of the frames were open so people could stand behind them and be "in the picture" on the wall.  That bridesmaid is cute!

 
 
Guest Book and Program Table
 
 
And of course, the Bride! 
 

 
Here's the other beautiful Bride - at her beach wedding!
 
 
She chose simple pink and orange Gerber Daisies
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 This amazing candy bar was the Groom's mother's creation and it was a big hit at this wedding!

All in all, two weddings in such a short time was a lot of work, but SO worth it!
