And now for the real purpose of this blog! Our bride Andrea (of ninja cake topper fame) was a seriously thrifty, DIY bride. For her wedding last
Saturday, she paid so much attention to detail and the venue looked absolutely adorable because of her diligence.
If your venue is Swedish colors, go with it! Andrea picked turquoise and yellow and white and it looked TOO cute. She bought paper lanterns that we hung everywhere and it brought the whole room together.
She kept the budget SUPER low by DIYing, Etsy-ing and negotiating. We are SO impressed!
She got her flowers (yes, all of them), her adorable hair piece, her cake toppers, and her bolero off Etsy shops for a fraction of what she would have paid elsewhere. She used Amazon for the favors, and she SCOURED the internet for the least costly items with which to make the centerpieces and only purchased things on sale for the rest of the decor.
We can't wait to show you photos of it all, so here's a little preview of the fabulous hair piece:
LOVE.
Her tips? Always ask if you can pay in installments - you never know until you do, and they make everything more manageable. Secondly, if you are purchasing a package and know you won't be using a part of it, ask if you can remove or exchange it. You never know unless you ask, that's her number one rule!
We loved being a part of your day, Andrea, and we can't wait to get the photos from the lovely Erica Rose!
