Well, to get things kick-started, I thought I'd post some ideas for a DIY informal summer wedding. Over the next week or so I'll post various ideas for a wedding with this theme. Part of the inspiration for this comes from some friends, who said that they had a picnic after their church ceremony, and it sounds like it went really well (they got married before I knew them so can't comment on this from personal experience). A picnic sounds like a fantastic idea for a warm summer's day (though you may need a back-up plan in case it rains...) For this wedding, how about an invitation with a high quality picture of the location in which your picnic will be held (the photo used in the invitation below is of sunset over the River Exe, taken from near Exmouth in Devon). Lots of people have good cameras that take high-quality images, and you may just find a kind friend willing to lend their camera to you (or take the photo for you). I'd suggest that you take a number of shots, perhaps at different times of day, and then choose the best for your invitation. Then, simply add your text (the text in the invitation below was added in Microsoft Paint), make sure the size of the picture is appropriate and then print off your invitations, either at home or on the High Street - you should be able to do this anywhere you would normally print off digital photos. This invitation took only a few minutes to create, and the cost to print each photo/invitation will be only a few pennies each.
More wedding ideas with this theme to follow in future posts. I'll also be posting some yummy food ideas, suitable for both special occassions like weddings, or for home entertaining as soon as I manage to upload photos of the food onto the computer...
