DIY Backyard Wedding by Audra Wrisley Photography & Design

A handmade wedding in Silver Spring, MD

Sarah and Salvatore’s spring wedding was DIY from start to finish, and every detail shows their love and personalities! They wed in their own backyard in Silver Spring; they actually renovated the backyard and had a bay window installed in preparation for their wedding day. Sarah sewed white bunting that was used throughout the backyard and also as a backdrop for the ceremony. They also grew their own wildflowers and cut and arranged them into centerpieces, bouquets and boutonnieres. With help from family and friends, they transformed the backyard into a whimsical space with hanging lanterns, and guests enjoyed a handmade (by the bride’s mother) assortment of colorful cupcakes for dessert. My favorite details are the bridesmaid dresses and the unique necklaces for each girl! Audra Wrisley Photography & Design captured their day.
