Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander

On the way up to Amy & Dana’s Wedding, I had a slight fear that it was going to rain. It was drizzling, and well…it just was not looking good.  By the time we got passed Bellingham to Lynden…I just had to accept the fact that it was going to rain that day. August 7th…the supposed day least likely to rain according to the Farmer’s Almanac. I accepted that fact…what I didn’t expect was the house full of happy bridesmaids and a bride that was ready to toss aside her amazing Aqua slash Turquoise shoes for her cute rubber boots. Either way, I was happy!:)

Can you believe the Dalia’s (one of my favorite flowers!!! I had tons of these in my wedding!) and the unripe Raspberries? There were rows of raspberries at the homestead where Amy and Dana got married, so she wanted to incorporate them into her bridal bouquets since they were the perfect apple green! So clever! What I really couldn’t believe was that they had done all these amazing flowers themselves! Talk about some amazing DIY details! These flowers were incredible!getting ready web0008 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylandergetting ready web0009 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylandergetting ready web0010 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylandergetting ready web0013 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee EylanderI loved that the bridesmaids all had their own style dresses, either in Aqua or Apple green…both with cool pops of Red! Then they all had these bright red shoes from Target. perfect. The really popped against the lush green back drop of the wedding ceremony location. I love that they had to “doctor” these shoes up so they didn’t fall off! They had to get all different sizes because there were just so many bridesmaids. And to think they walked all around the squishy mud in these and didn’t complain once! These bridesmaids get the “Best Bridesmaids of the the Year Award!” getting ready web0015 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylandergetting ready web0019 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylandergetting ready web0020 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylandergetting ready web0022 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander amy Dana web 2 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylanderamy Dana web 3 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylanderamy Dana web 11 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee EylanderThese are some of the amazing raspberry rows that Amy had told me about in her first email to me.

0928 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee EylanderI absolutely loved this red cabinet that Amy’s dad spent 3 months refinishing. I know because when I asked if I could load it into my car to take home…he was very emphatic that it took for ever to refinish and it wasn’t going anywhere! What a fun DIY project that could would last years after your wedding. I found one of these on the side of the road with a FREE sign on it and made my husband stop and pick it up! I painted mine white…and first used it as a closet in my baby daughters room…then it graduated to housing all my camera equipment. Its a project that I’m glad I did! I want another one!0929 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0931 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander

The Cookie Bar had all kinds of cookies made by friends and relatives. There were little bags to put cookies into as favors for guests to take home. What a perfect DIY wedding favor!  I loved the idea!0933 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0935 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0937 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0938 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0940 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0942 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0944 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0946 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee EylanderI love the little vintage shrug that Amy put on after the ceremony! It was the perfect addition to her vintage modern look and i loved it!0949 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0950 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee EylanderYou bet we got pedicures after this wedding!:) You can see just how slippery the mushy muddy grass was….My goal the whole day was not to slip and fall…something I’ve done many times before! I just treaded lightly and crossed my fingers. 0954 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0955 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee EylanderYep…still raining….again. No one cared! :)

Composed of beef jerky, pepperoni sticks, some crazy glue and maybe a beer? I think he may have taken a bite out of it before tossing it. Apparently, this is a tradition that Dana’s man friends have created as to have equality with the ladies!:) I love this tradition!0966 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander0968 Bellingham DIY Wedding | A Wedding in the rain never looked so good!| Kaylee Eylander
