DIY Wedding From Jessamyn Harris Photography
We’re going to switch things around a bit this morning and START with a note from today’s DIY bride, Melissa. Give you a little heads-up to what you’re in store for ~
My friends and I cut out over three hundred fabric napkins and my mom made our ring pillow out of felt wool and antique lace. Brett cut all the stumps for the children’s table, cake stand and boutonniere holder. My MOH and I made all of the boutonnieres from found objects from many places. Most of the decorative items were found at estate sales and salvage yards ~ wheelbarrow, buttons for boutonnieres, old window frames … I even found produce boxes in a neighbor’s barn! The mason jars were from The Summer Cottage Antique Store in Petaluma. My dad and grandfather’s antique bottle collection served as vases and we adorned the vintage cake topper with pretties from Castle In The Sky and Tale of the Yak. Most of the old pictures were of family and family wedding photos.
Whew! And that’s just the beginning …
Melissa and Brett were married at Healdsburg Country Gardens surrounded by friends, family and what looks like ~ a ton of fun …
