This wedding is all about rain boots, fabric bouquets, and co-written vows pledging eternal love for cats

At a Glance

Holly and Jen rock at crafting: they handmade both of their bouquets and all of the desserts served at their wedding, including the three-tired wedding cake! Yellow and gray clearly ruled the day, as evidenced by the rain boots worn by the brides, the ribbons used for their handfasting, and the crows and bird cages printed on the dessert cookies. The pair bridged sentiment and humor with their co-written vows, including promises to accept each cat brought into their lives and staying together long enough to see what one another’s tattoos look like in old age.

    Such a beautiful wedding to be a part of, and so much fun! Thanks for sharing 🙂 🙂

    I think you might have our tiny province mixed up Stephanie, as we’re located in Canada – not Europe!

    PSST: Thanks Stephanie 🙂

    This is a GORGEOUS wedding. I love the colors, and the brides look so happy 🙂

    (Also, this is the first time I’ve looked at the blog on my laptop since you switched to a wider format. The photos look great!)

    I had to leave a comment just to let you know that our bouquets were a fabric mix but no felt involved! (Probably would have been much easier if it had been though!) 🙂 Thanks for featuring us, we worked very hard!

      Your bouquets are lovely (well, the entire event looks amazing, but I’m a bit flower-focused right now). Do you have a link or a resource that shows how to make those fabric flowers?

        We referenced a whole bunch of sites and pieced together enough information and then improvised to make it all come together. I’ll have a look through my Pinterest and see if I still have anything kicking around!
