With so many of today\u2019s nuptials being meticulously styled and coordinated down to the last detail, we couldn\u2019t help but be drawn to the genuine charm of this <strong>rustic DIY ceremony and reception<\/strong> of newlyweds Saxon and Tyler. We stumbled upon it on Saxon\u2019s blog <a href=\"http:\/\/letsdrinkcoffeedarling.blogspot.com\/2013\/08\/wedding-decor.html\" target=\"_blank\">Let\u2019s Drink Coffee, Darling<\/a> and found out that she\u2019s also a crafter and an artist. And it shows! Just see the simple, yet heartwarming details she put together to make their special day extra meaningful.<\/p>\n<h2>DIY Wedding Decorations Made with Heart<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bellenza.com\/wedding-ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/rustic-wedding-decor.jpg\" alt=\"Rustic diy wedding by Let\u2019s Drink Coffee, Darling as featured by Bellenza\" height=\"970\" width=\"575\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Particularly touching was how family members and cherished items were so much a part of this wonderful occasion. For instance, two old doors found at a yard sale were transformed into the <strong>ceremony backdrop<\/strong> by Saxon\u2019s grandpa. Then, rocks from his collection were used as unique paper weights on the <strong>guest book table<\/strong>, along with other quaint pieces like an antique churn, a rustic basket for the wedding programs, and signs handpainted by Saxon (one displayed in an old frame of her mom\u2019s).<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>wedding cake display<\/strong> was also rustic\u2014in keeping with the country lodge setting where the reception was held. Would you believe the mother of the bride \u201cbuilt the cake stand from scratch\u201d! And Saxon created the family heirloom photo display that graced it. More wood and rocks decorated the charming <strong>coffee station<\/strong>, while the lodge\u2019s <strong>mantel<\/strong> offered the perfect spot for a sweet photo of the couple and more of the bride\u2019s handiwork: burlap flowers in a lace-and-burlap bottle and a recycled coffee tin wrapped in lace holding pine cones and pebbles.<\/p>\n<h2>Centerpieces Full of Charm<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bellenza.com\/wedding-ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/rustic-centerpieces.jpg\" alt=\"Rustic diy wedding flower centerpieces by Let\u2019s Drink Coffee, Darling as featured by Bellenza\" height=\"658\" width=\"575\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With a theme this intimate and personal, <strong>simple wildflower arrangements<\/strong> were all that were needed for the outdoor tables. The blooms were picked near the lodge just hours before the wedding and, as Saxon relates, \u201cAll the jars at our wedding were recycled from other things\u2014sauce jars, jelly jars, Starbucks frapp jars, you get the point!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the indoor tables, the <strong>DIY centerpieces<\/strong> were appealing little groupings on top of burlap \u2018gunny sacks\u2019 that served as table covers. These featured handmade flowers of burlap, lace, and fabric arranged in bottle-vases and placed on wood slices. Alongside were more of those recycled coffee tins covered in lace, each holding a rustic tea light, pine cones, and pebbles. Perfect for the theme!<\/p>\n<p>We must thank Saxon for so graciously allowing us to share these details of her and Tyler\u2019s wedding in Oklahoma.
