Taylor and Shawna’s wedding is a feast for the eyes! Not only is the couple totally adorable, but the details are all so lovely and creative. Shawna tried to be as DIY as possible, and it definitely paid off. Janae Hardy captured everything perfectly!
Shawna made these darling shoe embellishments! She cut out circles of yellow fabric and clustered them into rosettes, which she then sewed on to her shoes.
Shawna collected the bottles that they used as vases. She even got a bunch of free chemistry jars that the university was giving away!
Shawna made the cardboard fan programs. She had them printed, cut the rounded corners, glued them onto craft sticks, then added blue hearts cut from vintage fabric!
The altar was another DIY project. Taylor and Shawna found an antique window and painted it cream. They used two by fours dug into the ground as supports and hung the window from rope.
We are so in love with Shawna’s braided hairstyle and her gorgeous bouquet by Town and Country Flowers, which was a mix of hydrangea, Sahara roses, yellow freesia, and wildflowers.
They hung embroidery hoops from the tent to add some color. Shawna had filled them with pretty fabric ahead of time. What a fabulous decor idea!
For drinks, they had root beer floats–yum! Guests took the personalized mugs home as favors, which Taylor and Shawna ordered from www.discountmugs.com.
The cake was from Beth’s Bake Shoppe and Tea Room. It looks divine!
Shawna made her hair clip from an antique pin. She sewed lace and tulle to the back of it and reinforced it with feathers. It was a personalized piece as well as her “something old.”
Thanks Janae for sharing this beautiful DIY wedding! See more of it on her blog here.




















So lovely to see this kind of hairstyle. I'm in pre-wedding planning mode, and finding inspiration this previous for braided wedding hair is few and far between.
My favorite things, in no particular order: bouquet, hair braids, hanging hoops, FLOATS! Great wedding, congrats to the newlyweds!
