Our Best Of “Real Weddings” For 2015

In 2015 we published 63 gorgeous real weddings with amazing handmade details and so to call this list the “best of” isn’t entirely true. It’s really just a compilation of my personal 25 favorite elements from the year and it could have easily been a list of 63. I consider every real wedding published here the best of something and that’s the reason they were carefully chosen to be featured out of the hundreds of submissions we receive. I’m so very grateful to each and every photographer, vendor and bride who helped make each publication possible and who took their valuable time to submit their work to Something Turquoise. We already have an amazing list of fabulous diy-ed events we are preparing to share in 2016 and so until then I hope you enjoy this little jaunt down memory lane!
