Real Wedding by Chewing the Cud, II
Here are a few more amazing pictures and details from Viola at Chewing the Cud’s recent wedding!!

Best man’s boutonniere. Program in the form of a children’s book: each page started with an alphabet. e.g. P is for Parents. B is for Bridesmaids.
Our ceremony was held at the Apple Orchard. Since apples were not in season, the trees were bare. The same birds from our invitations hung from the trees and fluttered in the wind as we said our vows from one of my handmade books. Subsequently, guests wrote well wishes for us on the back of the bird hangers and dropped them into our wishes jar, in lieu of a guest book.

We are married!
We have SO much more eye candy on the way, so definitely check back in a bit!

Does anyone know who designed her wedding dress (not the tea dress)?
Comment by viola on 5 August 2008:
Hi Abby, thank you for posting!! Looking at our photos on your blog sure brings back some sweet memories:)
Laura, I don’t know of bookmaking websites I can recommend to you, but one of my favourite books is “Creating Handmade Books” by Alisa Golden.
Shannon, my dress was designed by Le Spose di Gio. cheers!
