This pair also loves DIY and specifically knitting, which led them to craft tons of knitted details including their cake topper, bouquets, and hair flowers.

Heather & Diane’s snowy mountain lodge wedding

This pair focused on the places and tokens that meant the most to them. Their venue, concert ticket table numbers, and even a cute feather fascinator had meaning. And when a snowstorm took away the option of an outdoor ceremony, their indoor alternative turned out better than ever. These ladies know how to plan an intimate and personal celebration (with awesome winter coats!).
