Chic-as-hell vintage lamps as centerpiece decor

Vanessa and Octavia had their industrial garden party wedding at the super industrial-chic venue, Tap Architecture in Oklahoma City. Our favorite part was their centerpiece decor that made their already gorgeously rough interior even more vintage-fabulous. The pair re-painted and re-covered all the lamps and lampshades used as centerpieces, cut custom fabric as table runners, and collected old books as decor. It was a labor of love that made us swoon for the homey vibe.

Lightsabers vs. wands: don’t miss this Harry Potter meets Star Wars wedding

Andrea and Ron both have true passions for Harry Potter and Star Wars. They’re convention fiends and travel all over the U.S. to celebrate their fandom faves. It was only right to incorporate that at their Harry Potter meets Star Wars wedding. Spot the references in their themed place cards and table numbers, the R2-D2 made completely out of flowers for the place card table, the EPIC handmade Marauders’ Map programs (that took over 40 hours to create!), and wand vs. lightsaber battle.

I solemnly swear these DIYed Harry Potter programs are up to no good

We’ve got a geektastic Harry Potter and Star Wars wedding coming up this week, but I seriously couldn’t wait to share the DIYed Marauders’ Map programs made by the bride, Andrea, herself. They took over 40 hours to make by hand and it shows. The Harry Potter programs opened in three different directions to reveal the sequence of events at the ceremony and a special thank you message from the couple.

Are you seeing the footprints pointing at “Processional?” So flippin’ adorable. Fellow Potterphiles: are you not entertained?! Let’s peek at the rest of these Harry potter programs at Andrea and Ron’s wedding. Stay tuned for the rest of the wedding (including floral R2-D2!) later this week…
