diy-ing, in every sense of the phrase.

here's some seriously ridiculous details and besides quitting my job and recruiting the entire family...even the family of family...and their neighbors kids....I would not be able to accomplish all the details I'd like to incorporate into our wedding day and reception.

I'll have to settle for drooling over these and convincing myself that I will indeed make it ALL happen, if only to sleep at night, knowing that I'm closer to a good cry than I am to making truffle for the wedding.

the chalk board idea - check. This is completely doable.

vintage plates - Are you kidding me?! I have no use for these in any part of my wedding but I will now force Jacob to stay up an extra hour tonight while I come up with any reason to get these plates. Even if it means setting up a lonely card table in one corner just to set them on for show.

wild flowers - check. This is done.

trifle - I must have a friend out there...a friend of a friend...that can make 2 of these for the wedding. AND our guests will need glass vintage plates to eat it on, of course. On it.
