DIY Green wedding

Ok so, we have decided to make this as green and as diy of a wedding as possible...Mostly to save money but also because we are deep lovers of nature and all things different :) So here are some of the ideas we came up with...

Lamp Shade Lanterns - super cool and you are able to find instructions at this link

Also Belinda turned me on to the website Save on Crafts! this is a great site!!! They have lots of different and natural elements to incorporate in to diy wedding projects. W are thinking of using the Moss twine,muslin and lace to create table decorations for a faerie garden vintage feel.

Now what you ask is making our wedding green? Well lets list it here:

~We are borrowing all the tables
~Hay Bail Seating (these are like couches made of square bails of hay see picture) gettting the hey for free from our local rabbit and pig farmer then returning it to him to feed his animals
~reusing solar lights that have died for lanterns with tea lights
~ Creating the Lampshade lanterns from old re-purposed lampshades, mason jars, and olive oil
~re-purposing wine bottles to serve drinks
~growing all of the flowers that will be used...

that is all I can think of now...when more comes to me I will let you know! Getting excited!!! :)

Oh and here is the best news of all!!!!

My wonderful Step mother bought me my wedding dress!!!!! What an awesome gift!!!! It's beautiful! and I can't thank her enough! Maybe I'll post it here when I get it! Maybe.... ;) Thank you Suzanne!!!
