Weddings can be a big investment. That is how my (now) husband and I saw it because this was likely the only time all our friends & family would be together. We had people traveling from all over the US, including ourselves. Planning a wedding from out of state is stressful but I was so lucky to have great family and vendors to support us. This wasn't just “MY big day”. It was about having fun and sharing love with our favorite people, and this is how we made it possible.

I’m on a mission to learn how to make crepe paper flowers for my wedding decor. I plan to make the flowers for table decoration, chair posies and to decorate the cake. My dad owns a printing business, so paper has oddly been a big thing in my life.

The art of paper flowers is a beautiful but personal incorporation into my wedding day. Of course, if I had the budget I’d rather not do the manual labour but wedding tax is real 🤣.
