{real wedding} melissa + nick's diy mountain wedding

After receiving this gorgeous DIY wedding while on vacation, I was dying to get back home to feature it.  Melissa + Nick were married on a big hill with breathtaking views of the Colorado mountains. The groom and friends made all the food and sweets for the big day. They even brewed sun tea the day before with its sweet label that sat on the handmade bar.  
From Melissa, the bride: We felt so humbled by the amount of generosity everyone one bestowed on us. We barely had to hire anyone! Flowers were from a friend's mother that lives in Colorado Springs.  Nick and I made my veil. It had clips in it that were vintage gifted from my bridesmaid Kimi Recor.
The couple skipped on the traditional wedding cake and had pies instead! 
I love the lace detail on the bridesmaid's dress.
