    Online guestbook sounds like a great idea! DEFINITELY didn't think of that. Thanks for sharing, girl!

    It feels like a lot of stuff but let's see: the invitations, the signage, the decor for reception and ceremony, centerpieces, wedding favors, bouquets and boutonnieres, and some other stuff I'm sure I'm missing.

    Quite a few... luckily our wedding planner is a super craft person and has been incredibly helpful with each task I've taken on.

    Zeeee-roooo... Zip.... Zilch. Lol!!! Not DIY’ing anything. I actually love crafting and consider myself very “artsty” (I even used to co-own a scrapbooking business). But I want to enjoy our engagement period and, therefore, refuse to fill my time with arts and crafts. If it can’t be purchased or rented, then it will not be part of the wedding.

    We'll be DIYing almost all of our décor and I've somewhat DIYed the flowers (purchased from Amazon, just tweaking here and there).

    Less than 5! Simple decor, but going to make a few of our own decor!

    Because we are really eloping, I just have 1. I am trying my hand at scrapbooking. I have never done this before, but it's how I am going to journal our wedding adventure. Nobody will be at the ceremony, so it's the only way I can let everyone know how great it was. I'm sure it will be, but it's not until May 2020.

    ZERO. Thanks, Angelica! You're the best wedding planner ever!



    In my defense, I would say I have countless diy projects for graduate school and teaching, lol

    First DIY were the bridesmaid proposal boxes. I plan on doing most of the decor DIY with my mother. Hoping to save a lot of $$ by personalizing and not settling!

    I have so many, but thanks to my girls for jumping in and helping me out. It's cool because they are in different states, however, we video chat, text and they have access to my accounts (not banking) and can put things in the cart and or buy them and start the projects.
