The term “do it yourself”, in relation to any sort of project, may be cringe worthy to some who may feel that they do not have a creative bone in their body, but not to worry, there are some super easy projects out there that even YOU can do! I recently planned a wedding where the bride and groom made almost all of the decorations for the ceremony and reception and it turned out fabulous! They were inspired by bright colors to accentuate the summer season.
What I loved the most was the home made paper flowers, in varying colors, that wrapped around the tree that the bride and groom were married under. We also put crepe paper balls hanging from some of the branches to add to the theme of a festive outdoor summer wedding. We all know that it would be easy to spend thousands of dollars renting and/ or buying décor for “THE BIG DAY”, but if you have a dash of creativity and a little bit of time you can create some great, inexpensive and personalized wedding decorations!
Regardless of what your vision is, you can most likely achieve a modified version of it for less by putting your creative cap on, enlisting the help of a few friends and BOOM, you’ve got yourself some amazing wedding creations.
