Vintage Zoo Wedding

Courtney & Michael’s wedding is one of those that you wish you could see a fresh everyday. I got so excited when photographer Jacquelyn sent me this wedding to look at! They had a small ceremony officiated by an friend of the bride which took place at Birmingham Zoo Lodge.  

Pretty much everything about this wedding was DIY.  The groom felted the cake topper (two birds sharing an ipod)  and all of the bouquets.  The brides birdcage veil and headpiece were made by her friend/hairdresser. They printed up tickets to throw instead of bird feed or bubbles. There was a small cake and punch reception afterwards where the guests were greeted by a llama and a parrot.  After the reception, the bridal party met at a local restaurant – Rojo – for some eats and then on to the after party!  The after party was held at a bar/antique shop called The Garage where there was much laughter shared and alcoholic beverages consumed. Courtney looks amazing in her dress by Unique Vintage and her adorable floral shoes by Not Rated.

Thanks to Jacquelyn for sharing these with us Rock n Roll Brides, what a great source of inspiration
