    We’re using silk flowers and I’ve made the bouquets, the corsages, the boutonnières, the RSVP cards, the place cards, the favors, and the centerpieces. Love crafting and putting this stuff together!

    So far 4- centerpieces, table “numbers” which are instruments, aisle lanterns, and seating chart, I’m sure there will be more to come.

    I’m a penny pincher so I will have lots of diy in our wedding. We are making our own candles for gifts for guests to take and I plan on creating most of my centerpieces

    So far zero. I like to think I'm crafty, but let's be real. I'm not. Lol

    I'm not extremely crafty. With that being said I'm also on a budget. So I am hoping I can just do a few DIY stuff.

    Ceremony arch, ceremony aisle, and ceremony entryway. Possibly centerpieces, and candles lining the pathway to our reception site. If we have to go to either fallback site for ceremony and reception, we will be doing a LOT of draping which will add a huge DIY portion. Also putting together welcome bags.

    Probably too many for what I can realistically handle...

    Making your own candles, that'll be so cool! Do you know what scent you are going to do?

    So I didn't really think that I was a crafty person but honestly it seems like I'll be doing a lot of projects for my wedding.

    Peacock theme at the zoo and I'll be making my centerpieces, welcome sign, and favors!

    It started with a lot, and then we decided to go all inclusive to save money, time, and all of that, so now I'm going to take on 3.
