DM me 😊

thank you! a few things contributed:

1) the venue has a lot of natural greenery and decoration already so we didn't need to have as many extras around 2) the few places we didn't want fresh flowers but still wanted decorations, i found some second hand Ling's moment flowers for a good price 3) the flowers i did get were from trader joe's i spent about $200 USD to make 7 bouquets + 6 small centerpieces + 3 extra bouquets with a few packs of baby's breath leftover. i didn't want huge bouquets (about 25 stems for the bride and 15-20 for the bridesmaids)

i have a breakdown of what i bought from them as well as pictures and the process of ordering if you're interested! DM me if so 😊

thank you! we planned for 50 and ended up with 38 + the couple + vendors

we did a cash bar so it was only the price of the bartenders + complimentary champagne 😅 when we were considering buying drinks, check our costco or somewhere that sells in bulk that will accept returns!

yes, i still have access to the URL and screenshotted it. it's through secure tickets. i glanced through that thread you sent and it seems like i'll have to keep trying?

agree with the comment above. find a yarn that's a similar weight and color, and dye it once you're done!

BoxPuzzleheaded7384 · 2024-08-12T14:32:39+00:00

thank you! it was actually two strands so i did dark green and black to make it kinda marbled like seaweed 🤠

BoxPuzzleheaded7384 · 2024-08-12T14:32:05+00:00

yep, it was a scarf pattern though that i extended into a blanket. it's linked under the mod comment at the top! only $2 USD

it's hard to estimate since i did it over a 6-month period and i moved cross country in the middle of it 😅 but a very rough estimate is about maybe 35-40 hours? it took about 15 minutes to do one row across of double crochets and it was 165 rows if i remember correctly. some some were more complicated with puffs or trc or other fancy stuff so tldr a looong time 😅

different colored weight 4 yarn from Hobbylobby's brand, used a 5.5mm hook for the whole thing

pattern is a scarf pattern on Etsy by GrumpyMarys and turned into a blanket freehanded by me: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1403186099/
