For the wedding itself, nothing so far. But I did the invites and favors, centerpieces etc for my engagement party. I plan on DIYing my wedding invites, table numbers, and favors, and probably a lot of the decor/signage. Probably my veil too, and possibly the jewlery. Im super ambitious...we'll se how much I actually do.

For your card box, did you follow s step by step or just wing it?

I am making my own centerpieces kinda. Painting Mason jars and making table numbers. I also just bought the stuff to make my card box from something I saw on etsy. I am also going to print and make my own seating cards and menus.

I posted pictures and a link to steps that I found (I loosely followed them) in a post a few months ago. If you search the boards you should find it. I unfortunately lost the link (computer crash).

Did you design your own invitations? If so, where did you get them printed? My FH is a graphic designer and wants to design some things (maybe the save the date and/or the program) but we aren't sure about getting them printed nicely. Thanks!

Re: DIY

I did design them myself and I also printed them myself at home. The whole point of diying for me was to save money. If I had to pay to have them printed it would have defeated the purpose.
