Vintage Delight - Emily & Joe

Today’s beautiful wedding is from Day 7 Photography and it is a corker.

Stationery - Bunting
Using the idea of bunting for your stationery is perfect for a country themed wedding; it is so simple and evokes such a strong sense of your day.
I love the last image which is ‘save the date bunting’ which your guests would take out of the envelope and hang up to read the message. Perfect for any budding DIY-ers!
