My mama always said "if you want something done right, do it yourself." I'd like to modify it for the purposes of my wedding: "if you want something done right, affordably and have the time, then do it yourself."
These are the DIY projects I anticipate completing for our wedding:
• all planning (hoping to recruit a day-of-coordinator)
• invitations, save-the-dates, lined envelopes, programs, table numbers, place cards
• wedding favors
• my veil
• boutonnieres
• bouquets and centerpieces
• petal toss cones
• farewell bells
• cake topper (possibly)
• a cake stand
• keepsake handkerchiefs (if there is time left)
