I’m a wedding coordinator for our church and we have been asked to decorate the church as cheaply as possible . This has given me so inspo so thank you
Tip for future brides! I repurposed the bridesmaids bouquets for our table decorations! We just had empty jars on the tables ready for our wedding venue coordinator to gather up the bouquets and pop them in before everyone went into the room after our ceremony and photos! Then they were also out of the way for the girls so they didn’t have to worry about them being in their way whilst eating. Then at the end of the night they just picked them back up out of the jars and took them home! :) 6:57
I'm getting married in June, in our country most venues decorations are already included in the price. I'm so glad that I don't have to worry about it. The bouquet and confetti ideas were very useful, I think I'll do the same (but we want to set the confetti on little cones for each guest). Thank you very much ❤❤❤
I have been planning on doing dried and artificial flowers for my wedding next year, thank you for making me feel less scared and alone in wanting to do this!
This brings me back to my wedding 😭 we literally DIYd most things, and all of our save the dates, invitations, table names, the guest book - and even a frame where people could write their name on a heart and put it in - was all from Aldi! I don’t know why Aldi had a massive wedding section at the time because I’ve never seen it since, but it was such a lifesaver! I spent hours writing out each invite, menu, place card, literally everything 😂 but it was all so worth it. I also ended up getting my bouquet and wedding shoes from Wish! Weddings don’t have to be expensive at all, doing a lot of the work yourself makes it feel that little bit more special ☺️ 5 and a half years later and the time has gone by so fast 🥹
It turned out fantastic! We did my brother’s wedding decorations DIY and then donated them to the church they got married at for future weddings & didn’t have to put it in the cars, so win win!
Getting married 10th October and our venue is the same only fresh confetti so thanks so much for the tip with the roses. I'll definitely be doing that 😊
Thank you for posting this. Ive made my bouquet and my bridesmaids bouquets and my fiance and I have designed our save the dates and invites ourselves. Definitely will be making some more stuff DIY 🤍
We are getting married in November and your trick to melt the bottom of the candles so the fit in the hurricane glasses is genius!! I thought we could have to buy taller glasses but I will be doing this instead!
I didn’t make my own but I did get flowers from hidden botanics for myself (and accidentally ordered two bridal bouquets so I tied them together and had a huge bouquet which I loved in the end) and then we had some bud vase flowers dotted round in vases from Ali express around our venue as we just had a micro wedding just us/2 witnesses then a reception party the day after I didn’t want to pay a fortune on fresh flowers either!
Hi Soph, I was wondering if you will be selling any of your wedding bits? I get married in July & live fairly close to you (I think if youre fairly local to your venue). Your decor is lovely 🥰 x

So nice to hear a more relaxed attitude to weddings ❤ looked fab
Spray the dried flowers with clear coat to preserve forever :) BEAUTIFUL WEDDING!
i cannot express how happy i am for you. i’ve been watching you for years now and to see you happily married is so so heartwarming ❤
Canva is also great for DIY wedding stationary!

I love watching your videos Soph! I find your voice so relaxing and calming while my baby naps

I’ve been waiting for this video! Thank you so much for taking the time to tell us all the diy bits you did for your wedding ❤😊
I think we call those Flowers baby’s breath in America.

that's such a good idea for the confetti! I've seen fresh online which would cost us about £60 so might consider this!
Your wedding was so beautiful 😍😍 do you have any footage from wedding dress shopping?
Oh my goodness, we have the same wedding date! We got married 10 years ago
Looks like things turned out great! Thanks for showing us what you did and telling us how they worked out ♥️
