Our wedding went so perfectly we couldn't believe how well it came out! We had so much help from Wednesday until Friday setting up for the wedding and then even in the morning when the flowers had to be put out, our friends and family were so good to us. So thank you everyone that helped. With out you, our wedding would not have came out as beautifully as it did. It was the day of our dreams!
We got married on August 16, 2014. The weather was almost perfect with a temperature in the 70s and plenty of sun. It was pretty windy during the ceremony, but by time the reception started the wind died down and everything went great!

We ordered several things hand made by Etsy sellers.
My crown and the bridesmaid's crowns were made by GardensofWhimsy. I would recommend her to anyone wanting a flower crown that does not have time to make them yourself. I did not want to risk my crown falling apart on the wedding day, so I ordered mine from her and had her make the bridesmaid crowns. I wanted something simple for the bridesmaid crowns and something that would match my dress and look pretty when I took my long veil off. The junior bridesmaid's crown was made by my bridesmaids the night before the wedding. I wanted her to have something fun but with color to match the bridesmaid dresses. So we picked the pink peony flower for her crown.
Our guest book was made from white birch bark. We ordered that and a white birch flower box from SettingupHouse on Etsy. She also did a beautiful job. I was very pleasantly surprised when the guest book arrived and the covers were solid bark, not bark glued to cardboard. Unfortunately, the photographer did not get a photo of the cover of the guest book due to guests signing, but she did get a photo of the flower box and it looked beautiful with all of the flowers.
The flower girl dresses were hand made as well by a woman on Etsy PrincessCotureTutu. She made a custom dress for my junior bridesmaid. I wanted something similar to the junior bridesmaid's dress that was super girly. I think she did such a beautiful job. She responded to every message so quickly and even sent photos while working on my dress. I highly recommend her as well.
The flower girl basket was bought handmade on Etsy as well by Teresa's Plants & More.
All photos linked in this post were taken buy our wedding photographer Amy Miller,
Imagine Photography from Pine Grove, PA I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional photographer.
We had such a magical day and could not be any happier. It was so wonderful to see my husband smile after all the hard work we put into it. It was the happiest I have ever seen him. Everyone had a good time and danced the night away, and we met our goal. For everyone to enjoy themselves in a woodland fairytale for the day.
Your wedding was totally fabulous. Everything is pretty and it looks like a high end wedding that we usually see in the movies. Loved the entire setup. Can you please tell me what was the total budget? I too want to have such a setup for my big day and have already reserved the outdoor party venues in Chicago.
