Today is my ninth wedding anniversary! Shout-out to the old books that served as our dinner centerpieces; may we never have to lug boxes like that around ever again. 😉 #bookishwedding #bookishmarriage

thereadingowlvina Beautiful! I made one for my wedding too and it still looks 'fresh'! 😁 5y
tournevis That is a great ideas. Were I to get married again (won't happen, I'm not leaving the one I have) I'd totally do that! 5y
laurieluna @thereadingowlvina that's what I love about it the most, it will last for long after the wedding! 🤗 5y
laurieluna @tpixie @crowCAH @tournevis thanks! @Laughterhp I wasn't sure I could do it but I gave it a go and it couldn't be more perfect! But handmade ones wherever they come from are a win 😊 5y
Cathythoughts This is brilliant ✨✨✨✨✨ 5y

When your best friend nails your #bookishwedding invites. The font she used for our names is called The Doctor too. This is why I'm not getting much reading done. Now to cut, fold, address, envelope and wax seal them all 🙈

TrishB Cool 👍🏻 look great. 5y
Amiable Those look awesome! 5y

I wanted to share my #BookishWedding bouquet final product with you all! Made from pages of Station Eleven - the only book my husband and I both love equally and thus had two copies of in the house ❤️📚❤️ (photo by Lisha Wang Photography)

Finished my first table decoration bunting today, which goes lovely with my Serenity graphic novels that I started rereading too. Our wedding theme is fandoms, with each table having a different fictional couple ❤️ Zoe and Wash are relationship goals. #bookishwedding #fandomwedding

My partner and I had a rare alone moment today when we nipped out for presents. Stopped at Starbucks, and I got a lovely candy cane gin. I then spent a gossipy, crafty afternoon with @toric and our friend Sarah. I managed to make some of the flowers for my bouquet (made from the tagged book) and test out my fictional couples bunting for the tables! #bookishwedding #fandomwedding

squirrelbrain Gorgeous! ❤️ 5y
laurieluna @squirrelbrain thank you! Was so nervous about them but they've turned out lovely. 5y

Realised I hadn't shared anything from the wedding in a while. Sorry for the bad photo, current phone camera is seriously lacking. These are our Save The Dates. The back tells the person which parts they are invited to. I hand stamped every single one of these. It was worth it.

julesG 😍 5y
abookishbutterfly We used those library cards as invitations, too. ❤️ I love your clever wording. Very sweet. 5y
laurieluna @Butterflyamore We need to put quite a bit of info on ours as its over 2 venues and involves a museum so we need to make the proper invites a bit bigger. Going with a book theme there too with either Game of Thrones or LOTR writing on them. 5y

abookishbutterfly @miralunasbooknook It is hard to fit all of the necessary information onto those cards. I ended up getting cute paper from Staples and I included a note with additional information on that. It sounds like your wedding and reception are going to be a lot of fun! 5y

Where has the last week gone? I have so much to do. Had to change the wedding date so I have lost over a month off my planning. Just over 9 months to do everything. My partner and I trialled the flowers for our table scatterings today. These are made from our joint favourite book, Assassin's Apprentice, got a new copy. (1st, 2nd and 3rd attempt from left to right) I love them! #bookishwedding #bookishbeamishwedding

Cathythoughts Lovely ! Happy days ❤️ 6y
laurieluna @RachelO @TrishB @julesG @Cathythoughts thank you everyone. Keep wondering what I've let myself in for. But it was great fun doing these! Hope to be back in the Litsy swing and reading again soon too. The days are too short. 6y
julesG What about listening to an #audiobook while you make your flowers? 6y
youneverarrived Pretty! 💕 6y
kezzlou85 Oh pretty . 💜 6y
laurieluna @julesG audiobooks are hard to do because of 2 small noisy kids, otherwise I would listen to them all the time. Still working my way through the Strange the Dreamer audiobook I started 3 months ago 😂🙈 6y
Oryx Gorgeous! 6y
Chrissyreadit Very pretty! 6y
Mdargusch I love those! 6y

The good news? The Copy of Good Omens was so grotty that I felt no guilt ripping it apart (it lost a good 100 pages as they had black mold on them 😷) Edit: it's now all in the bin. It smelled so bad I didn't want to use it! 😂
The bad news is that the copy of Assassin's Apprentice is 22 years old and in so beautiful a condition that I just can't bring myself to take it apart. So I many be ordering new copies instead 😂

Planning table decorations. Just ordered second hand copies of these books, 3 of my favourites. (These are my copies. Staying intact!) Good Omens is getting turned into a bouquet. The other 2? Well I've ordered a heart shaped hole punch...😬 I'm sorry. So sorry. 😂 #bookishwedding

TrishB Can‘t wait to see! 6y

Kalalalatja How exciting! 👏👏👏 6y
laurieluna @No_One I have never made a paper flower in my life so I'm expecting a lot of trial and error. I think Good Omens has enough pages to do tests 😂 6y
laurieluna @TrishB @Cathythoughts @Kalalalatja I have so many ideas I'm annoyed I can't use them all! 6y
No_One @miralunasbooknook hahaha! Best of luck! 😃 6y
sammisho I made paper flowers for my sister's bookish baby shower. I felt so bad every time I cut out a page! But it was so pretty in the end. Good luck! 6y
laurieluna @sammisho yeah, it's cutting them that will be hardest. That's why I went for pre loved copies. Won't feel as bad if they arrive already a bit bashed! 🙈 I have a crafty friend who is going to help me. Hoping to find some simple designs! What resources did you use if you can remember please? Thanks 😊 6y
sammisho I bought copies from thrift stores! It help these away some of the sting. I honestly just winged it. Remember the tissue paper flowers you made in grade school? I made them like that. 6y
LoverofLit I threw my sister a romance novel bridal shower and tore up some romance novels in the process 😬😅 Never a good feeling but buying them cheap and already damaged helped! 6y
minkyb I love seeing these posts. I had such fun planning and making things for my daughter‘s bookish wedding. Good memories. 6y
laurieluna @minkyb I'm enjoying this so much. I'm currently making all the table decs and save the dates but don't want to overload Litsy too much. 6y
minkyb @miralunasbooknook we had library card save the dates, book invites...i made paper flowers for the rehearsal dinner. Keep posting pics please! 6y
laurieluna @minkyb Our Save The Dates are library cards 😄 we're doing Game of Thrones/Lord of the Rings inspired invites, then the table decorations will be hearts and flowers made from our favourite books and bunting with our favourite fictional couples on them. A different couple for each table. It's so much fun. 6y
