Dyi everything.

Has anyone else DYI everything for your wedding?
I have made my own boutiques for everyone. (Bridesmaids, mine, the flower girls and boutineers) since I needed black roses mixed in. I made my own wedding favors. I'm currently working on my veil. I have to finish the cake topper.
What have you done yourself for your wedding?

    Oh I know those Starbucks drinks very well I used to drink them lol. That's such a neat idea! They look better then even fake flowers.

    Thank you! if you go to a gas station they usually sell those Starbuck's Frappuccino things, so I used those! cleaned the jars really well and painted then, made pompom flowers since I'm allergic to real flowers. Smiley smile

    I bet you have saved a lot with making all those. Even the brides maids dresses. In bridal shops here it was $200 just to start for a dress. Yes silk orchids are expensive.

    Oh that sounds exciting! It should be all worth it in the end. Are you a very crafty kind of person? If you post any I can't wait to see the stuff you had made.

    I made all my centrepieces. I also made my own bouquet and will be making my maid of honour and my brides made dresses as well. I am making personalized name plates. And going to make my own table numbers as well. Not sure how much I have saved doing this, because ordering silk orchids was very costly! But my bouquet turned out great!
