Early in the wedding planning process, Kara mentioned that Alex's family really enjoyed playing Scrabble together. With that in mind, we decided on a vintage Scrabble theme featuring navy blue, burlap and Kara's favorite flower, daisies.
As a designer, I really enjoyed building a new backdrop and crafting little details like letter blocks and monograms. Overall, we focused on simplicity with a bit of vintage charm. This wedding really put my talents to the test as I also had the privilege of making Kara's bouquet and Alex's boutonniere.
The vintage church doors and antiqued birdcage made a lovely backdrop for the ceremony. I really lucked out as I found the doors at the Habitat for Humanity Restore where I found them as a pair. They were dark brown when I started, but after a couple coats of paint, some strategic sanding and the perfect hardware, I think they ended up looking pretty good. :)
