I was shopping in a paper boutique a few years ago when I overheard a bridezilla talking aout her upcoming wedding with her planner. Bridezilla said, "I've been seeing birds everywhere. Shower curtains, dishes, shirts. Birds. They're trendy now. Let's do birds." I was highly amused. It was as if she had never seen a real bird before!
Seriously though, I think a bird themed wedding is a lovely idea! Here are several DIY ideas to get you started:
