DIY wedding bookmarks are easy to make and have SO many uses!
Bookmarks are a small canvas for expressing yourself. Typically only a few square inches, there’s still plenty of room for information and illustration. Whether you’re saving the page or saving the date, a bookmark is a simple but effective DIY project you can tackle. Here’s how to make your own custom bookmarks, complete with tassel.
A geeky and gorgeous forest preserve wedding
Saeri and Brent were wed at Evans Field, a forest preserve just outside of Chicago. Saeri wore a persimmon-colored dress (to match her ink), they both wore Converse, and they had a ceremony filled with geek references to dinosaurs and zombies. An aunt performed a hula dance, while another aunt read an English and German poem that Saeri’s grandmother wrote for them. It was definitely a mix of cultures and interests that blended so well together.
Get your guests involved by having them “tie your knot”
Taymar and Max had all of their guests tie a string around their wrist, offering advice and love at the same time. This is an awesome idea to get your guests involved, as long as your guest list is a manageable size.
Dawn & Benjamin’s off-the-grid forest handfasting
This pair both studied sustainability at a gorgeous venue on Cortes Island, BC, so it only made sense to bring their loved ones there to celebrate their marriage. And those same guests pulled together to provide tons of help in preparing for this camp-out wedding in the forest. But the best part of all is the bride’s HAND-PAINTED dress! You have to see it.
