  I was planning on doing my own table numbers by painting frames/numbers. Instead my mom is going to make them to match the invitations (she printed them, future MIL drew a flower that is on them). I don't think there is any DIY I want to do lol.

  6) Favourite wedding detail - Ceremony
  There's no picture, but I think of saying the vows. It makes my heart race every time I think about it. Also, our recessional will be "Home" by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes and that always makes me smile.

  I wish we would've done a ribbon backdrop for somewhere. We thought of doing it for the ceremony, but there isn't really anywhere to put it so we had to nix it =(
