What do you think of this wedding idea! I absolutely love it and congratulate the couple, not only for their special day but for their creativity and generosity!
As a child of a "jumble sale" mother, we recycled, up-cycled, and down cycled everything!
There was a time when I was disappointed with the item too, the worst being a red coat for my birthday when I was around 9 or 10 years - loud in colour and itchy too.
However, I fully embraced charity shops when I was at school and I clearly remember my grandad shirt and waistcoat bought from Oxfam's for coins. I even had a skirt made out of my grandad's ties, now that was a bargain!
Gina and Jacob Dodds also invited their guests to wear outfits bought from charity stores.
