Our welcome sign and table plan was made from wine corks collected by friends and family. We framed them and used a clear plastic sheet with vinyl decal writing on top, listing guests’ names. We had three long tables for the reception and decorated them with small bud vases and tall candles along the centres. I did the flower arrangements myself with the help of my mum and sisters. This made them so personal and they turned out perfectly. We used bright pops of pink and orange in contrast to the dark green of the bridesmaids’ dresses. My mum and I made the wedding cake and decorated it with beautiful, dried flowers. We added festoon lights around the venue, which added a lovely warm feel to the room in the evening. We also built a huge ‘Wizzy’ sign (for Will and Izzy), which we placed in the garden and had lights shining on it in the evening. Our guests loved it! REAL WEDDINGS 35
