Its always such a treat to receive a wedding from a bride who used Once Wed as a resource while planning her wedding, so when Julie sent over the images below from her handmade wedding, I couldn’t wait to post these lovelies up on the site. Julie has an awesome etsy shop filled with all kinds of vintage goodies, so naturally many of the details from her wedding were also vintage including her wedding dress and little jacket (made by her grandmother when she was in college). I really could go on and on about how sweet and thoughtful their entire wedding was, but I think the images below tell the story so much better than I ever could…

I love the idea of formally asking those  whom you would like to be in your bridal party. I sent out a cards for my own wedding so that inspired me to come up with a cute project to do the same. I adore the paper chain people that we all learned to make in grade school and this project uses that simple concept to introduce your bridesmaids to everyone. Cut out the shape of the dress you plan on using in the color you desire and personalize each person with some paper hair. To complete the set I created a little card asking “Will you be my bridesmaid?” and included the wedding details as well as how and where to order the dresses. To find instructions and more details about this diy wedding project, click “more” below…

Enjoy!

How sweet is this country wedding below? Who knew record themed table numbers, mismatched plates, kraft paper, pink peonies, and bunting banner could make for one swell party…
