Hello!! Thank you so much for watching 🙌 just to let you know I’ll be uploading every single day for the next few days, at 3pm EST 🫶
Yay!! So excited to hear this!! Pleeeeease make more wedding videos! You did an amazing job!! 😍 Have a great rest of your week!! ❤ Edit: I also think that it would be sooooo cute if you put little golden footers on the mail box!!! Just a suggestion! ❤
Looking forward to more from you this month & I love the candelabras ❤️
Great to hear I’ll be watching for them eagerly.
I’m totally down for wedding content Chloe xxx
Just a suggestion for the mailbox: You could glue little magnets in the seams to make it hold up better. That way you can still disassemble it to store or package it if you want to sell it after the wedding.
So tip from a bride (10 years ago) don't mention it's a wedding when you ask for prizes. They up everything as soon as you mention it's for a wedding.
Came here to say this, people use the excitement behind a wedding to wring thousands and thousands more out of you that they wouldn't get otherwise. Just call it a celebration or a party and do not mention the words wedding, fiance, or anything of the such because people are nefarious about taking advantage of what should be a wonderful occasion.
What do you say instead? Family gathering?
@@jocelyn_studios If absolutely necessary I'd just say like birthday party or an anniversary party or something of the such. They really don't need to know it's a wedding.
@@jocelyn_studios what @vanillathebard wrote. Just say party or family gathering.
I got married a few years ago and this didn’t really work for me. Photographers sometimes have different styles for weddings and don’t expect to be at any event that’s not a wedding for more than 8 hours. I also found it cheaper to get a wedding photo package than stacking multiple event photo packages to reach my time limit. Most decor rental places I found require you carry event insurance for weddings and renting and not disclosing it’s a wedding and not giving them your event insurance (which will say it’s for a wedding) violated the contract. Event planners need to know it’s a wedding. Most of the time the costs aren’t actually more. I think I found only one vendor that charged more for the same products for a wedding than not.
Best advice I found was to create a separate email for wedding things and then when you book your official vendors move them to you regular email.
EDIT: It might also vary where you’re from. I live in the Orlando area (and got married in the Tampa area)so there were really no price differences here for any event vs wedding when asking for prices. Maybe in smaller towns or outside of this area!
As a bride that DIYed the entire wedding in October, my main advice is to have someone day of to set it up and ensure everything is complete. My wedding turned out beautiful but I was running around setting up until the last minute. The stress was insane.
Everything looks beautiful so far and either way, the day is about celebrating your love with those you love 💕 Congrats and can’t wait for more videos!
Hitting the mailbox with a primer before you spray it will give you a much more even coverage... And be careful that the paint doesn't chip on your candle sticks if you didn't sand first. Adhesion may not be great. It's hard to paint shiny metal.
It’s only for a few hours for one day so I’m not worried about longevity! ☺️
@@ChloeRoseArt the reason it took 4 coats to get any kind of coverage on the mailbox is because you didn't use any primer though. With primer 1 coat may have been enough, 2 coats would be job done, and the coverage would have been absolute perfection, that mailbox isn't plywood, it's mdf and without primer it absorbs the liquid the pigment is suspended in far too quickly for there to be even coverage. If you had used primer with 2 coats of paint it might have actually looked like a metal one :) and the chipping on the candelabras might be smaller than what you're thinking of now, they might shed glitter like chips at first. also when you're spray painting anything it's a good idea to go in four directions, from up to down, down to up, from left to right and right to left. that way you get all the nooks and crannies :D
@@guLynxgreat advice!
@@ChloeRoseArt But you said you'd sell them afterwards, so it would be mean to charge people for something where the paint will come off any minute.
❤❤❤ Chloe, maybe paint the bases of the table numbers the same gold as the candelabras? It would make them so classy!
Exactly what I was thinking! I think they will look stunning together.
Something to bring it together, the theme seems so disjointed.
I was thinking the same thing!
I was thinking the same thing!
Exactly! Or just painting a gold trim around the acrylic to frame it/tie it in :)
Yes to more wedding videos! I am getting married in April and I love seeing other's ideas!
Congratulations! From a spray paint veteran i would recommend a clear coat probably a semi gloss or a gloss for the candelabras. this will do two things, it should bring out the shininess of the gold and also will lock in the paint and make sure it doesn’t just chip off. for the post box since you said you liked the finish i would recommend a matte. That should even it out a bit and also protect it. Also btw the rustoleum 2x is my favourite brand and i would recommend their clear product to anyone i keep a stash of the multiples of matte satin and gloss on hand.
The finish coat to protect it, is it labelled as a finish coat, or just as a clear coat please?
@@gabrielleauclair254 depends on the brand but the rustoleum painters touch 2X just says “clear matte” or gloss etc. where as there is another spray that I have also used, that’s much thicker and its from verathane and it says “ triple thick one coat clear finish” I’ve only used that for one project in an instance where I needed a thicker finish. Usually, I just stick to the rust oleum 2X It works on pretty much every surface, paint, wood plastic metal, etc. also the matte (which I use most often ) doesn’t leave a hazy finish.
@@laurNsG thanks for the tips! 😊
It’s crazy how expensive weddings can be, that was a shock to learn in adulthood hahaha 😂
It's really not. My younger sister got married last year. Got married in the mosque and then booked a restaurant room out for her meal. Wedding cake was a normal bakery cake. Wedding photography and videographer. Dress was no more than 50 quid. They only invited their dearest and nearest. I think about 20 people from each side.
Now my older sister, she has the whole shebang. Booked out the fancy town hall with a grand staircase. Had a 3 tier cake, DJ, catered table service. The expensive wedding outfits. 200 hundred guests. Wedding photographer and videographer. Table centre pieces. Decorations. She spent silly money on silly things.
A wedding is as expensive as you want to make it. I would rather spend that money on a deposit for a house.
@@WellISaidIt This is very true, we did similarly. I'm fortunate that I have a family, including my inlaws who are crafty, we hired my dress ( you are only going to wear it once after all) we had a registrar wedding and had the reception at a boat club hall hire.
I got married in 1986 and I got silk flowers for my wedding. Back then the silk flowers were ok but today they are so much more realistic and you get to keep them forever. Just a suggestion
I agree, they look authentic and if you really want flowers that aren't in season it's a good way to get what you want.
The wedding industry is such a scam, for reals! I had a tiny wedding for 50 people and it was still over 10k (and this was 15 years ago). I’m glad you’ve found a way around some of the cost and add in very personal touches at the same time! Unrelated note, I love your “four food groups” shirt so much 😂
Would definitely love to see more wedding DIY ideas/videos, simply because I got engaged as well and could seriously use inspirational help 💝
Congratulations! I’ve been engaged for a year now. We thought we could save money to have a wedding as our families aren’t able to help us financially. But we gave up and decided to get married next year and just have a ceremony and then dinner with family and close friends.
It made me a bit sad at first but when we realised how much money we should spend for a wedding, I’m not sad anymore. 😅 I just want to marry the love of my life and celebrate it with a very small circle of friends and family.
@@patriziacathey605 Thank you!
My sister had a very cheap wedding this summer. It was just close family and her BFFs family, like a dozen people. It was at a scenic state park on the river. They rented a covered picnic shelter (it was pretty cheap as long as you didn't tell them it was for a wedding when making the reservation). We had charcuterie boards and salad for lunch and a small cake (all the food came from Costco). Her best friend officiated. Her wedding dress was under $200, on discount, and her veil was second hand. It was really a beautiful, intimate, memorable wedding. I know many brides dream about a perfect big wedding, but if it's really financially out of reach, just remember that the best part of any wedding is having your loved ones there to witness you exchanging your vows with the love of your life. That's the most beautiful thing.
@@quisnessness that sounds beautiful! Not much that we wanted this big perfect wedding, we wanted to invite more of our friends and family, dance and have fun.
But we decided to invite more people to the ceremony and then go to dinner in a restaurant with closest ones. I plan to find a cheaper dress. Also, while getting s bouquet, hair and makeup I don’t intend to tell it’s for a wedding. They charge everywhere more the second you say wedding.
Congratulations! It's so fun seeing you make things for your wedding. I made all of my decorations for my wedding. You can get a lot of inexpensive wedding decor items from marketplace like candles, vases, fake flowers, etc. Dollar tree also has some decent items you can use for diys. I love what you did with the table numbers. I wish I could have donated vinyl to you because I have so much. I can't wait to see more of your videos.
I’m a silver girlie myself! I sprayed branches silver and put them in big vases for our decor! Then used old baby food jars we wrapped in silver ribbon and gems with tea lights inside. Yay for DIY wedding decor!
Congratulations Chloe! I had my wedding back in July and I can totally relate! Everything was so expensive! Thankfully since I was getting married a little bit after wedding season, I was able to thrift a lot of decorations and places were putting the wedding stuff on sale. It helped so much! The items you painted turned out so adorable! ^u^
The table numbers turned out great! What a fun video. Would love to see another one like it 😄 Cogratulations on being engaged!! Good luck with planning everything. When my friend got married, she had her friends come over to help make centerpieces. It was really fun! We crafted and had some wine together 😋
CONGRATULATIONS CHLOE!!
Your hair is looking especially gorgeous in this video, Chloe! You’re gonna be a beautiful bride ♥️
Aww thank you so much 😭🫶
True and true! 💕
Omg nugget, hi!! I follow your Spark!! lol big fan of your work!! ❤
@@PurpleWaffle1 aww hi! :D thank you!
We need a whole wedding craft blog. Loved this 🙏🏼 congratulations
For decor, rental of the hall, food, and invitation/photographer... we did it all for just over $1,000. We diy'd a lot, so you can do it... I believe in you. Congrats on the future marriage, and wishing you all goes well.
A couple tips of painting objects from my experience
The reason your candle holder or whatever had a matt-er finish is because your paint want right, the candle holders were already chromium finished, you needed to use a gold "glaze", a few coats over it make it look more realistic then anything spray paint can achieve
As for the letter box, the reason it took many coats was because you had no base. You need to give a white coating first for the color to look bright on, otherwise color looks muddy and the undertones show through. Give it a Matt white coating first.
Anyways! Amazing video as always and happy to hear about your wedding! 🎉
YAASSS CONGRATULATIONS!!! I love your fiance, you guys are so perfect for eachother! ❤
Thank you so much! 🫶

@@4Rgames AHHH I KNOW I KNOW I'M SORRY! I promise I know proper grammar! It must have been auto correct.
More please! I DIY'd so much of my wedding (while in my final year of uni! ah madness of youth), but back in 2006 there wasn't as much online help and every person getting married should know how to avoid exorbitant wedding mark ups if they can!
More wedding content, please! I would love to see more!
Something amazing we did, have a photographer staged behind or jump into position by the person doing the vows. When the first kiss moment happens, have them snap a photo of everyone's reaction. It's *AMAZING* how beautiful that photo turns out.
Also, as an artist, have a canvas as the guest book and multi markers. It looks amazing framed. =)
Congratulations Chloe!!! I’m so so so happy for u!!!! Both you and ur wedding will be absolutely gorgeous!!!
Yes! Absolutely more wedding content! I also DIYd our wedding so I really love seeing what ideas others come up with for theirs 😁 We had a gaming themed wedding so the decorations were very specific, like a box for cards that looked like a Minecraft chest 😂 Really love those table numbers!
Huge Congrats on the engagment Chloe. Mega proud of ya!!!!!
I’d love more wedding content as long as we get an update after the wedding to see how things turn out on the day (just scenery, don’t want to encroach on your privacy). ❤
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!! You two are LITERALLY one of the cutest couples I ever get to see on here. Many blessings on your union!!!
Thank you so much!! 🫶
More DIY wedding planning, please. Just dont burn yourself out trying to make content and geting everything done for your wedding. Pace yourself and ask for help, you'd be surprised how delighted some people are to lend a hand.
Yes, please, for more wedding content ❤ it’s so lovely to be able to share your joy and excitement, you genuinely deserve to have the day of your dreams 😊
YES more wedding content! I plan to also be a DIY bride (not engaged yet, but will be soon hopefully!).
A good tip for getting bubbles out of vinyl is to prick a tiny hole as a relief point, then push the air out slowly. I use this tip a lot for my tumbler creations, so it's
a pretty good hack.
Congratulations Chloe!!! I'm so happy for you! I would love to see more of the wedding DIYs, it was a very fun video to watch ❤️
More diys or wedding content would be fun to see
I’m also working on diy-ing a wedding! My daughter is getting married in August. So I would love to see more wedding related videos!
Congratulations!! This was SO fun to watch! Please, more wedding content if you're able!!
Yes to the wedding content!!! Everything turned out amazing ❤️
Congratulations Chloe I am so happy for you. One very good thing my nephew and his partner did was, if it is a Summer wedding, was when the hors d’oeuvres were served they were outside on a patio area but the thing that was awesome was they had a lady with a little cart serving little tubs of soft serve ice-cream. It was wonderful on a hot day.
More wedding videos please!!!! It’s like you were reading my mind but I have been admitted prematurely thinking about how I could try to have the most inexpensive but still really nice wedding. I love the table number cards!
Congratulations! I love watching wedding planning. I totally DIY'd my wedding. I did all my flowers - alters, pews, bouquets, banquet. Made all the wedding favors and candle landscapes for the tables at the reception. I was able to get a great deal on the reception. I live in an area with a lot of office buildings and with a major interstates a few miles away. The hotels around here mainly cater to business events. I talked to the Sheraton close to my house and they gave us a price of $27 a head for a 4 course sit down dinner and they put us in the ballroom which was beautiful on it's own without decorations
The post box idea is super cute. You could cut a door in the bottom of the box with some little hinges. Then glue the rest.
congrats, i too diy a lot of my wedding stuff. decorations, flowers, invites, orders of service, jewellery and i even made some craft activity bags for the kids so they didn't get bored.
Congratulations on your engagement!!! You did a great job and saved a lot of money!! I had a small wedding and I enjoyed every moment and every guest!! It was the best for us! I wish you much happiness!!
Congratulations Chloe ❤ love your videos!
yes I want a full series on your wedding DIY journey
i would love to see more wedding content this was awesome, and so efficient of you!
I think golden initials would look so good on the letter box!!!! Sooo cute!
Congratulations! Also, I'm usually all about silver, but those candle-bras (I can't help saying it that way) look perfect in gold. Your wedding is going to be gorgeous.
I agree with you! I’m all about the silver, but the gold on the candle-bras does look especially glamorous.
I’m also LOVING that red postbox 📮🥰.
These turned out so great Chloe! I would love to see more of your wedding DIYs 💚
Would love to see more wedding DIY videos. I’ve been married 36 yrs as of next February. Even then, weddings were quite pricy. I did DIYs and saved a lot.
See what things you craft for your wedding would be fun! 👰♀️ There are always lots of brides looking for less expensive ways to do things. Additionally, the items you craft might make great home decore as well! 👍 I'm glad you found some good prices! 👏 Calla lilies are lovely, elegant, tropical white flowers that would look beautiful with gold ribbon. They are also very simple, not very flashy flowers. Hope your grandma is doing well! 🤗
So excited for more videos! Love the content. ❤️Yor wedding decorations are beautiful.
Yes please! I would love for you to do more content on your wedding stuff. I love the color combination.
Yay for more wedding craft 🫶🏻
Congrats Chloe! Hope your wedding is wonderful!
CHLOEEEEE. The candle holder transformation is *chef’s kiss* !!! So beautiful. Also I love the table numbers 🤩 So happy for you both. 🥰🥰🥰
Ahhh thank you!!!!
YES!!!!! More wedding videos!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I, too, prefer the gold. Good luck on you wedding planning. Have fun.
Congratulations, Chloe!!! I, for one, would love to see more wedding content. I think DIYing your decorations is a really nice way to make them much more personal (as well as cheaper XD). 🥰
I painted candelabras & candlsticks in flat white to look like plaster, with peach & sage ribbons & flowers to tie to the legs of white sheets covered with lace curtains draped on all the tables. Then peach flower arrangements on the tables. Also a round table covered the same only with palm leaves spraying out from under the cake, for the wedding cake, for my sisters wedding at a yacht club in Connecticut. All things I already owned, but the ribbons! The whole room looked like a big wedding dress. It sounds messy, but it really did come out GORGEOUS. And romantic, in an exposed brick room, in an evening wedding. It just GLOWED. it took me weeks to paint it all. My sister only had to pay for the venue the food & the flowers, which I arranged in my own various clear vases in different ways for each table…going down the center. I should ask for some photos, as I was too busy to take any. What STRESS, taking it all down at midnight!
I LOVE what you did here & want to see MORE! Yes…primer should’ve been used, but high hopes things won’t chip off before the big day. You’ll be a gorgeous bride!🩷🩷🩷💕

I would love to see more wedding content! Loved the video Chloe
Tip for spray painting. Always prime first it'll help the adhesion and especially on plywood or MDF where it likes to soak it up like a sponge it will provide a more even top coat.
Second tip for spray painting is don't do short little bursts like that do one long spray that covers the whole side start off the piece sweep back and forth over the piece, end off the piece.
YAAAAS More wedding DIY!!!!!! Such good ideas!
Omg this was awesome congrats! I would absolutely LOVE to see more!
So I'm a future bride with a budget, so I would love to see you take on a DIY wedding. Chloe, I love your content and strive to get to where you are with my creativeness. You are so inspiring.

for the letter box try gluing everything but the top. it might hold it together better especially if you can find a way to just have one side like the top loose if you want to keep it when the wedding is over
Yes, I would love more wedding content!
Really enjoyed it! Everything turned out great! Thanks for sharing ❤
I DIY'd everything for my wedding too. Saved so much money, and was so much more personal to my taste. Plus it was fun ❤

They all look so good! I love the numbers most, but the others look like they were purchased that way. You are so creative and are saving yourself so much money by doing these things yourself.
As long as you have time, and enjoy yourself, I would love to see other crafts you do for your wedding. I am sure many future brides would appreciate the ideas. Congratulations! 😊❤
More wedding content! Those were some awesome ideas for any kind of event!
