Piñatas, tacos, & cascarones at this Mexican-inspired DIY wedding in Chicago
Steph and David wanted their wedding guests to feel like they were attending a party in their home. Steph made a piñata for the card box, cascarones (Mexican confetti bombs!) to throw after the ceremony, and a ton of fun table decor. Don’t miss the taco bar, pies and paletas for dessert, some serious dancing and video games, and, of course, piñatas. Steph and David had custom piñatas made to represent them: a cat for Steph and a dinosaur for David. Almost too cute to break!
Let’s hear from Steph about how it all came together…
Halloween couples: steal this zombie piñata idea for your reception
Halloween couples: are you planning a wild stunt for your reception? Should it maybe involve the destruction of a zombie piñata? You’ve got a few months more to plan for your own Halloween wedding, so now’s the time to make or snag a zombie piñata (you can find some easily on Amazon!) and fill it with ghoulish candy (or adult drinkies!) and be ready to go nuts.
Anais & Ira’s low-key handmade crafty wedding
One way to bond over the wedding is to get everyone and their mother involved in the tiny details. That’s exactly what this couple did, and it made planning a little more sane than it could have been. With paper and knitted flowers, an all-vegan-plus-pork menu, and lots of woodsy and crafty details, you know a lot of heart (and probably sweat) went into this wedding. Oh, and don’t forget to pour one out for the missing home-brewed beer that could have been.
