{Weekend Wanderings}

So I'm not posting our winner yet today, since at noon (when the giveaway ends), I'll be sending all of the wedding dates to Blush to make sure that everyone's eligible based on wedding date. I'll announce the winner as soon as I hear back!

But I didn't want to postpone wanderings because wanderings are super cool.

DIY Projects


 If you love the look of macarons as much as I do, you'll love this DIY from Wedding Chicks. I'm sorry to say that I'm not too fond of the taste of these little beauties, but you can be sure that my wedding will feature a few for looks sake. :)

 I found a couple really fun semi-DIY printables this week. The first is a collection of some darling Halloween-inspired printables (but many could work for weddings) from The Sweetest Occasion. The second an elegant favor tag printable from Polka Dot Made.

 Are you as afraid of flowers as I am? If so, check out this DIY corsage and boutonniere tutorial on Budget-Savvy Bride.

 Ruffled featured a really fun polka-dot envelope DIY and an equally adorable streamer cake topper DIY this week.

 If you're looking for a semi-unique fall-inspired table runner, check out this autumn leaves runner by The Sweetest Occasion.



Real Weddings



 This backyard wedding on Style Me Pretty makes my heart leap. It's beautiful, and the bride shared lots of great advice, including tips on looking for budget-friendly wedding services.

 Here's a thrifty and handmade Washington wedding with pretty much the sweetest details, posted on Green Wedding Shoes.

 And here's a bride who made her own wedding dress to save lots of money. This wedding, on One Lovely Day, also includes glass bottle centerpieces, tissue paper garlands, and some cute little cakes. Need I say more?

 This British wedding as seen on Ruffled was inspired by "the look of a lot of the casual, backyard style American weddings." Love it.

 My favorite is seeing weddings on other sites that explicitly state what the budget was. This $10K Rocky Mountain wedding from Sparkle and Hay did that, and also dazzled me with rustic-chic and DIY details.



Inspiration



 I'm in love with '60s-inspired stuff, and am therefore totally head-over-heels for this Mad Men inspiration shoot on Ruffled Blog. Yes. Madmen. You want more.

 Postcards and Pretties posted some really lovely inspiration for the short-haired bride this week, and, I gotta say, it made me want to chop off all of my hair. Check it out and tell me what you think. I'm seriously considering it.
