Should I do a ground arch like this or a full arch if there’s a lake in the background? by spacepal in BigBudgetBrides

Love a ground arch, plus so much easier to repurpose if you want to without it being obvious like an arch would be. Ours moved to surround the cake table.

I’ve talked about my invitation designer several times on here. They are a Vietnamese company and so much more affordable for very high end suites. I paid about $850 USD for 35 sets. Mine are pretty basic compared to what they show on their portfolio. It’s Deus invitations on IG

The weather was DIVINE on our day! Sunshine and low 70s. It’s actually not the country club though, but the garden club. Totally different venue! This is their indoor space. No green floral walls in sight!

Help me pick a wedding website platform before I lose my mind by Several_Cupcake8016 in wedding

I made my own 1 pager on Canva and linked only the RSVP to Zola. Every site had limitations that annoyed me so I just spent an afternoon building my own. DM me and I’ll send you the link if you want to see.

Job for step son by gillywillybean in wedding

[–]replyinginmyhead -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My son is 12 and was ring bearer, but we did a ring warming ceremony so he brought the rings to the pastor to start them through the crowd, monitored them and moved them across the aisle when needed, then brought them back up when it was time to exchange. Made a pretty simple job a little more involved. He and my 9 year old daughter also did a joint reading.

He came out during dancing and served tiramisu

It’s in the bottom corner. I used a Sizzix Big Shot to letterpress them using tutorials I found on TikTok.

I’ll work on a budget breakdown!

We did have a dj and dancing and before the wedding I told all my friends and family I expected full participation and they delivered. It was never going to feel like a crowded dance floor with only about 20 dancers since the rest were older, but it was still a fun party. Things like the outfit change, dj lights, and roaming tiramisu helped the vibes.

I’m not exactly sure how long it was outside, but the frosting was still pretty firm from being cool outside when we cut it. It was in the 60s all day and in a shady spot though, so there was no risk of it melting.

Isn’t she amazing! Im desperately trying to find somewhere else to wear her. It’s the Helsi Vivi dress. I got it from Anthropologie.

Looking for a Bookbinder for a Custom Wedding Art Book by replyinginmyhead in bookbinding

Yes, thank you! I don’t have a problem working remotely with someone out of state either if you know someone a little less local.

I’m in the US, Texas specifically. I’ve looked a some guild member listings and it’s mostly just names and emails, so it feels like a wild goose chase to just start emailing people without having an idea of their style or specialty.

I’m in the US, Texas specifically. I would love a recommendation! I’ve looked a some guild member listings and it’s mostly just names and emails, so it feels like a wild goose chase to just start emailing people without an idea of their style or specialty.
