Bride & groom: Tracy & Brian Bowen of Little Rock
Wedding date: April 30, 2011
Ceremony location: St. Andrew’s Cathedral, Little Rock
Reception location: Lafayette Square, Little Rock
What was your overall inspiration? I just wanted a trendy-vintage look, a classy version of DIY.
What were the interesting personal touches/unique details? My mom made the table runners and toppers, she will reuse all of them to make a quilt—including the flags. The bridesmaids and I made all of the monogrammed flags by hand, and I baked all of cookies myself, including Snikerdoodles (my favorite) and Cowboy (Brian’s favorite). I also made all of the save-the-dates, invitations, programs, and banners for the wedding.
What one detail truly made the wedding yours? So many personalized details
How did you save money in planning your wedding? By doing so many things myself
Tell us a little bit more about the day, how did it go? My bridesmaid had a flat tire other than that it went pretty smooth. A highlight, I was shockingly calm.
