Every month or so, my husband-to-be and I travel four hours
A super simple and totally easy décor idea was inspired from Grace at Chemistry Couture. For our wedding, I decided to add color to our outside ceremony by creating large fabric covered LOVE letters. This idea can be customized for any theme, in any fabrics, and in all sizes. Depending on your
Here’s an easy project for some super cute DIY pomander balls. My maid of honor helped me create these, and I’m getting double duty usage from them since I displayed them on tables at my bridal shower then plan on using them to hang in the windows of the church! DIY Pomander
I am so pleased to bring you another DIY project this week. Let me give you some backstory. I love the idea of chalkboard signage at weddings. It brings a little rustic chic detail to this special event. However, some chalkboards can be up to $50 or more! Being the budget-savvy bride
