A true DIY bride. We are our own DJ's, wedding planners, florists, makeup artists, decorators and event caterers (we operate a small fine-dining restaurant in the town we're getting married). The only things that we're not making ourselves, entirely from scratch, are our clothes, the valet parking (haha) and the photography. We're even using our own sound equipment and projector!
