    Thank you guys!! You have no idea how much flea markets and goodwills helped me out with decor. Not to mention I got TWO dresses for a total of $83 at a thrift store. I forgot one of my favorites!

    Thank you everyone!! It was the perfect day...

    I should really tell everyone the secret to my success now: my wedding was completely "I get by with a little (a lot of) help from my friends". As in...ALL of the food was DIY BBQ by my Uncles and Father. The cake and cupcakes were made by my sister. I had relatives camp out at the property for three days before the wedding to help me with hanging every last detail. 75 % of the mason jars came from random family member's cabinets. The arch was made by DH's aunt and uncle. The rose petals came from dollar tree... 

    And thrift stores were my Godsend!!

    If your wedding was food, I would want to EAT IT ALL!

    You are so incredibly stunning, and you husband just looks completely in love and handsome. The property is stunning.....ummm I need to visit as a Florida neighboor lol!

    The decor is out of a magazine, so classy and cute! Every picture does look like a Taylor Swift video. Great photography.

    Congratulations again!

    Oh my goodness!!!  Under $1500?  That is SO impressive!!!  There are just so many things about your wedding I love.  The guys' suits are perfect (do you mind me asking where you got them?  that is just the look I am going for!), your dress is unique and lovely, the setting is gorgeous, love the petal aisle, and a guest bench?  So cool!  Would you mind if I pinned a couple pics to my pinterest?

    Also, I have a special affinity for fin cars (my uncle drove me and my mom home from the hospital in one when I was born), so I am just dying over those pics! 

    Congrats!

    Can I ask you where the boys got their suits?  We definitely want to do suits instead of tuxes, but not sure if they are able to be rented or if we're going to have to buy them somewhere.
