Michelle's bridal and bridesmaid bouquets

I'm working on these gorgeous bouquets for Michelle a sweet bride in Florida!  Michelle is getting married in September.  

Her bouquet from all angles!  [stem still needs to be covered]






I was trying to show the size of the bouquet.

And them side by side. 




I was using my iphone to take the pictures instead of my canon rebel because they were easier to upload onto here.  Unfortunately, the quality is lacking compared to the rebel. But you can still get the feel of the flowers.  :)

Bunting

Bunting, bunting, and more bunting.


I can usually be found with either scrapbook paper, scissors, or at least a hot glue gun in my hand, at all times.  


I'm bunting my whole wedding.  From the woods to the aviary.  Covered in bunting.  


Today I completed my first two bunting projects with words.  They obviously won't be next to each other at the wedding, but for the photographs sake, they are.  



Programs

Of course, I decided to make my own programs for the wedding.  Back in high school I was the editor of my school newspaper, so I learned a lot of good design skills.  A couple months ago when I was completing a project for a health class in college, I toyed with Adobe Illustrator and LOVED it.  I decided to make my wedding program playing off a program I found on Intimate Weddings diy blog.  I used Illustrator to create the perfect wedding program for Kevin & I.  We both adore them!

DIY

I'm a crafty person.  Once we started talking about marriage, I made the decision that I was going to DIY my wedding.  For anyone who doesn't know, DIY stands for "do it yourself."  I had never really thought much about what I wanted at my wedding until Kevin and I started talking about it, but once I caught the marriage bug, you could say I got prepared.  I decided that I wanted a global theme, not so much bringing in other cultures, but displaying maps and globes.  I crochet all the time during the winter months, and had just crocheted a cool flower, so I started thinking about making my flowers, rather than buying them.  I decided I wasn't good enough at crocheting flowers to crochet my bouquet, but I took on the task of teaching myself to create paper flowers.  I bought a random old book and some atlas' and began making paper flowers.  Slowly, with the help of pinterest, my wedding crafting is looking AMAZING.  


I want to use this blog as a way to show people that their pinterest dream weddings don't just have to be dreams!

About Us

Hi!  My name is Casey and my amazing soon-to-be husband is Kevin.  This is us:




We are both 20 year old college students who attend Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia.  I am a Health Promotion major and Kevin is studying Human Resources in the business department.  I am graduating in December 2012, Kevin in May 2013.  We both love the Lord with all our hearts and plan on moving overseas to pursue starting a business and sharing the gospel in South Asia or the Middle East.  


I am from a very small town in Western North Carolina.  I love reading, crafting, crocheting, photography, and spending every other ounce of my time with Kevin.  


Kevin is from a small city in Northeastern Oklahoma.  He loves music, reading, deep conversations, road trips, and me, of course.


We are best friends, united by God, and stoked to become husband and wife.


We are "tying the knot" on June 10, 2012.  :D
