Today I’m sharing a segment from the beautiful wedding of Sherry and John, the gifted writers and designers of Young House Love!!!
I fell hard for their home design blog, but even harder for their wedding!!! Their fantastic sense of style shows throughout every inch of their event, with Diy projects galore!!!
From the moment you arrive at their celebration you feel warmly welcomed by their hand painted sign!
Isn’t this backyard charming and perfect for a 75 person celebration, it’s beautiful and it’s free!
Their awesome sense of style continues with their simple yet elegant table setting. The tablecloths they used were white muslin, and were accented by a textured yellow fabric runners, both of which were purchased from a fabric store. The choice to use real plates, stemware, and silverware gave the whole event that casual elegant feel. The glasses were purchased at Ikea and all the silverware was purchased from Sam’s Club. The beautiful thing about purchasing items, as apposed to renting, is they were able to give things away to charity and write it off!! How cool is that!!
The decision to use fruit was a huge savings and also made for a quick and stress free DIY centerpiece. The glass cylinder that held the fruit was only $3.99 from Michael’s, and they even scored on some cute lemon lime napkins from Target. They didn’t stop there, to compliment the table perfectly, they used charming drink containers. (One of my favorite DIY picks)
Thank you John and Sherry for sharing your beautiful wedding with us, and for all your DIY awesomeness!!!
Look for many more details about the food, favors, and fun… plus, the cost breakdown of their entire event (all for under $4,000.00).. … here at Young House Love… Now get on over there, you don’t want to miss a thing!!! Oh, and don’t forget to congratulate them on the birth of their little baby girl!!!

It is hard not to be in love with their blog and their wedding. Staying happy with one complete idea can be difficult today when there are so many awesome examples.
