“I knew I found my dream dress when they asked me the question, “Can you see yourself walking down the aisle to Matthew in this dress?” and instantly started crying. Right then and there, I knew it was the one I would marry my best friend in!” – Rachel
“We had our wedding in our backyard overlooking the Mississippi River. There were boho and vintage pieces throughout, making it the DIY wedding of our dreams.” – Rachel
“The whole wedding was a big ole DIY project! We had mixed seating with couches and chairs found on Facebook marketplace, dried pampas grass picked from fields, vases found at thrift stores, wedding signs made out of picture frames, and a vintage vanity for a bar. It was a unique and fun experience DIY-ing our dream wedding!” – Rachel
“Our best wedding advice is to get a wedding planner! We did it all ourselves and with that came a bit of stress during the wedding planning months.” – Rachel
