Upstate NY DIY Wedding for 200+ guests

Im getting married on October 13th 2012 and to cut costs my fiance and I decided to go with a DIY/Green theme. Problem is I am somebody who thinks i can do everything myself (Im even going to the extent of growing my own flowers for the bouquets and making the chandeliers for the reception). I do have other people helping out (for example: my mother and sister in law are making my dress) but i feel like if i give them too much to do, they'll see me as lazy. Am i nuts for thinking this? Just wondering.

  • I thought I could do it too. I had do many projects and so little time. LOL! I have rather extensive garden and of course I wanted to use my own flowers. My flowers did not cooperate! Most of my roses were in between blooms, 11 hydrangeas produced 3 blooms! I had one orchid blooming but not the right color! I ended up buying roses and hydrangeas from Wegmans and bulk orchids from my florist. It took me and my MOH about an hour to put them together the night before. Less than 200! Yes, you should have people help you with your projects, just consider their talents. They will be happy to do what they are best at.
  • I am sure your friends and fam will be team players to make your big day as great as possible. Mason jars might make good vases for your type of wedding. I've got some other DIY ideas on my blog at www.localchicalbany.com
  • Im borrowing Mason jars for calabrias and centerpieces.. the flowers are going to be sunflowers and queen annes, which I will guard with my life from all the evil buggies that might wish to destroy them, lucky me there both rather resistant in the first place...
