A true DIY wedding, Claire-Josephine, Nick and their families made a lot of the details for their big day themselves. The stationery was made by the bride's aunt and the groom, and the favours by the mother of the groom. The cake was made by a member of the church choir and the bride helped design her own dress and headpiece which were made for her by her friend Keli Thompson, who has just launched her own wedding couture company.Read more...

Markéta and Sam said "I do" within the Ruins of Castle Košumberk in the Czech Republic. Their colourful theme represented the two of them, and overall their theme was love and hearts! "We love colourful things and bright styles so our theme for the wedding could be called a heartfelt kaleidoscope meets 50s twist and shout!", Markéta said. "Hearts were easy. I love Melissa shoes and I just loved my wedding shoes. When Sam proposed I ordered them just two days after. They have a big cute heart and so we decided a heart theme for the whole wedding sounded good.Read more...

Chris and Ursula met at the age of 18, when they were both obsessed with music and played in a combined schools orchestra. "He had a massive curly shoulder-length afro at the time, I wore a pink school uniform; he played oboe, I played clarinet", she said. "We bonded over car rides home and his mum’s choc-chip cookies. We were shy young things though and didn't eventually get together until a year or so later, after I returned from living in Denmark for a year."Read more...

I fell in love with Erin and Jon's budget wedding as soon as I saw it - I loved the cute, affordable and easy-to-DIY details, the beautiful venue and the bride's lilac dress (which was actually a bridesmaid's dress from J Crew). The day was held at Shadowbrook Restaurant in Captiola, California on the bride's birthday (!) and was planned, in the most part, by her mother. She did almost everything herself, from chalk painting the mason jars to making the dessert trays from using vintage plates and tea cups.Read more...
