I guess the problem with a blog rather than a website is it doesn't appear all 'ta da' done and ready to roll. A blog evolves, it grows. So I hope you stick with us and keep coming back as we build and grow, adding more projects and posts each week.

I'm a designer and artist, and I've been engaged for don't ask how long! I found it quite surprising as I started to plan my wedding that there wasn't more resources out there to do it yourself. There are so many talented people, so many great ideas. I decided to build a blog that brought it all together in the one place.

So whether you're looking to express your creative streak on your big day, or just keen to walk down the aisle with a bit more cash left in your pocket, you'll find 'i do' it yourself packed with inspiring ideas. From invitations to table decorations and everything in between, 'i do' it yourself has is all.

Even if you haven't got a creative bone in your body but your keen to support independent designers and artists check out our gift registry - a regular update of fabulous handmade and truly unique gifts to point your guests towards.

I hope you enjoy 'i do' it yourself as much as I'm going to enjoy putting it together.
