Before we dive into this warm and inviting DIY wedding from Marianne Wilson Photography, you must understand that it took an entire year for the couple to create their dream day. They both were hands-on spending a ton of time in antique stores looking for that perfect something to create an eclectic yet budget friendly wedding.
One amazing idea was the do-it-yourself band. They gathered some of their most talented musician friends to create a super band. The bride goes into full detail and explains so much more here. Of course, there are so many more photos that you have to see in the full wedding gallery.
The bride’s bouquet is quite lovely. A lotus flower pod with bright yellow billy balls. Definitely one to keep for the inspiration board.
They wanted to keep our guests as refreshed as possible, but at the same time give them a little something extra. So the couple shipped in some original Coca-Cola from south of the border and let them sit on ice. Now that is what we call cool.

I really love the photo-booth frame – such a simple, effective idea!
The bridesmaid dresses are beautiful. Where are they from?
I’m just crazy over the dress. The kiss at the fence is so cool.
That FIRST SHOT… absolutely is the money shot! So stunningly beautiful, capturing the love of the couple… Such a POW, gorgeous, romantic, all-encompassing romantic image. Wonderful!
I love the wedding as a whole. The yellow is stellar and THAT DRESS is a knock out. I love that KICK of poof at the bottom and the long sleeves- exactly what I always wanted so I love it! :)
Looks like a fab wedding. I love the extra touches and that cake is amazing!
Oh I love the yellow! Almost as refreshing as the coke on ice..
Absolutely stunning! I can’t decide what part I love the most! Gorgeous dress!
I really love the place cards and frames, but I am enamored with this cake! So beautiful!
Loved Zulema and Beq! Such a sweet couple with amazing style.
Really sweet! I love that the lights were on even during the day! And those lips to compliment the mustache in the photo booth are fantastic!
