DIY Purple & Yellow Wedding in New Mexico | Whimsical Wonderland Weddings

Alexis and Cody had a sweet purple and yellow wedding in New Mexico last year. They had a rustic DIY feel to their day, which was really personal and full of meaningful moments. I especially love the cupcakes and the pretty sunflowers.

Thanks so much to Searching for the Light Photography for sharing their wonderful imagery with us today, here is what they said about the day;

"Alex & Cody's wedding was simply sweet, yet exactly them. They are two people who love each other but love the outdoors without a lot of fuss. It's not surprise that their wedding was quite simple yet had details like sunflowers, jeep cake toppers and Pink floyd as the bride's processional."

Our wedding could not have been possible without all of the help we had from family and friends. Everything was DIY, even the 600+ cupcakes, and, especially those last few weeks, we were so blessed to have all of the love and support we did.

The venue was not the most important thing for us, so, when our other venue closed because of fire restrictions, we went for another area that we knew fairly well and had many similar features to the original venue- water, greenery, openness, etc.

Our wedding was unique because of us - I've never seen a cake topper as a Jeep, or a bride walk down the aisle to some Pink Floyd. We knew that, as long as we ended up married to each other at the end of the day with our friends, family, and or God before us- everything would be okay. So we didn't sweat any of the small stuff and decided to just have fun with it.

The inspiration came in a few different stages for us- Cody knew he wanted somewhat relaxed and knew the basic color scheme, but when a friend of ours offered to take pure engagement pictures to build up her portfolio (Beth Darnell) and the feel in those was a country-meets-city feel, very relaxed and at ease, we figured out which way to go with things. We decided to go with a vintage chic theme that represented us, with burlap, lace, sunflowers, and Jeeps.
