What are you Brides doing for crafts to make your wedding more personal? I would love to see your crafts!!! I'm currently working on tweaks to my headpiece.
I love wedding crafts! That headpiece looks so pretty!
I made my veil and attached a sparkle trim around the edge and comb. Turned out OK!
Then I made custom jewelry sets for my two bridesmaids. Will put them in a nice box with a thank you note. Sorry about the poor lighting! My apartment lights are awful

Those are beautiful! I havent figured out my bridesmaid gifts yet, but I really like the idea of making them! P.s. I live in a house built in the 40s, so I understand lighting issues 😉

Thank you so much! I saw a similar style on Pinterest and fell in love with everything but the $700 price tag.. 😳 Thank goodness for Youtube tutorials! Do you have any wedding crafts for decorations or anything?
Currently working on the lamp post centerpieces. It’s a vintage New Orleans theme and each table is named after a street in the French Quarter

That is beautiful! And so creative with your theme! We are getting married on July 4th (next year at this point...) But I couldn't come up with a theme I liked at all. I think the height of the lamp post makes it elegant.

Thanks! I love New Orleans and considered a destination wedding (before the pandemic) but my guest list would have been even smaller than originally planned. The lamp post is just under 2 feet so everyone can see each other.

I have never been to New Orleans, but its on my bucket list! This is such an original theme to me.

It kind of is, it’s been super difficult finding ideas. It’s more “vintage New Orleans indoor courtyard garden.” I didn’t want Mardi Gras, but something classier. I think I looked up great Gatsby theme and jazz to kind of get small ideas. I think if you pick a color scheme first, that might help you come up with a theme.
This is so unique and beautiful! I love it; it's super creative.

Thank you! I was worried it would be too DIY for a wedding, but Im hoping it looks good when all said and done.

It's definitely much classier than the traditional Mardi Gras theme you see so much of, but still really conveys your theme. We are getting married on July 4th, and everything seems so cliche. Ya know the whole red, white, and blue... Stars and stripes theme 🙄. Our color scheme is below but I can't really get a theme from it. I call it "Unapologetically Pink". Please let me know if you have any theme ideas!

Thank you! Im building on a necklace I bought online. Exchanging pearls and such. I have a few hairpin ideas I am going to make for right above my veil too.

Have you chosen a venue? I think that might help me. Is it indoors or outdoors? I’m getting a garden party or romantic/fairytale vibe with just the color palette

Love this theme and the lamp posts

I think a glitzy/glam theme or garden theme would work pretty well based on your cooler scheme. My favorite color is red and I originally wanted to have it as my wedding color, but it would have been hard to carry out that vintage NOLA theme. It really depends on how strong you want the pink/purple color scheme to be.
Most important thing it’s to pick things you like. The easiest way to find out is to weed out the things you don’t like.
