diy Wedding crunch time.

Hello fellow Brides!

My wedding is this weekend, Sunday the 13th.

I am not a normal Bride in the fact that I never dreamed about a wedding. I aways said I'd get married by Elvis and I almost was until Covid made us cancel our trip to Nashville.
So we are now having a small wedding in our back yard (maybe 50 people). Planning this wedding has been an experience to say the least. I am trying todo as much DIY as possible to help keep cost down. But in doing this I am a little panicked that I will forget something. With how I have never dreamed or thought about what my wedding would be like just adds to my fear of messing up.
Anyone have any tips or a checklist of the small/ tiny details that could be looked over? Also would love ideas for props to make for my Ballon wall photo booth.

    Props could be purchased at the local dollar store! they sell packs of props on sticks for photo walls or photo booths. or you can easily DIY it by getting some chopsticks and printing out some templates for photo props you can find online.

    As Melle said, you can get props at the dollar stores. I also saw wedding ones the other day at Hobby Lobby. I think Walmart also has some. As far as checklist, it depends on what all you want to include. I had elaborate ideas and then Covid happened and I’ve given up on pretty much everything but a diy photo booth and my centerpieces. We do plan to have a welcome sign made for the table with the favors. Maybe sit down and think about what’s important for you to have and then that would become your checklist.
