I’ve always wanted to have a personalized wedding, complete with all the tiny little details that make the experience more special. For the past days, this is what i’ve been trying to achieve with my do-it-yourself kit. I’ve been cutting, pasting, measuring and printing stuff. I’ve have also commissioned household help to form an assembly line of sorts to help me with this project. Namecards, menu cards, table labels, napkin holders, etc are all products of this cottage industry of ours.

It would’ve been easy to just outsource this and spend the time to do other “more importantĀ things”. But this is something that i really enjoy doing (apart from being a good way to save up on costs :)). It is important to me because it allows me to concretely bring a part of myself into this wedding celebration. And besides, it’s not everyday that you get a chance to be crafty.
