Dress up a printed wedding menu by layering it with a piece of elegantly embossed cardstock and tie it up with a ribbon. This is an inexpensive wedding menu idea you can DIY. We carry colored vellum paper in lots of shades, so you can print your own wedding menu too.
6. Wedding Confetti Envelopes
This is one of my favorite DIY Cricut wedding projects because you can 100% customize your confetti with the wedding date, the couple's last name, a bride and groom silhouette and anything else you can dream up. To get elegant DIY wedding confetti, mix and match cardstock and specialty papers, like acetate cardstock, glitter cardstock, vellum paper and even holographic cardstock.

Honestly, this is one of the easiest wedding DIYs ever! Cut table numbers from gold glitter cardstock, stick them on skewers or cake sticks and stick them in wedding table centerpieces. Easy peasy and such a pretty gold wedding table number idea.

This DIY wedding cake topper idea by Design Team Member Naomi can be customized with your wedding colors and made as big or as small as you'd like.
