Under $500 Ensemble Winner(s)

Posted by Khris in Contests, Inspiration Boards

You make my life difficult, you crafty vixens! Honestly, I had the worst time trying to pick a single winner for this contest. So I didn’t. I picked 3 winners and even that was a challenge. All of the entries for this contest were so wonderfully creative, beautiful, and fun!

Each of the winners will receive a copy of The DIY Bride: 40 Fun Projects For Your Ultimate One-of-a-Kind Wedding. (Email notification is on its way.)

Winner #1: Samantha G.

I loved this one because I thought the colors were fresh, the dress was gorgeous, and the total cost was under $400. For the sleek, modern bride who loves adding unexpected details, this is a great choice.

Winner #2: Samantha W.

This one caught my eye because it’s frilly and romantic … and about $326 for all 6 elements. For more traditional brides, this is a lovely option.

Winner #3: Emilia

For something fun, funky, and fresh Emilia’s entry is aces in my book. I love how daring and playful this ensemble is. Great dress, unique accessories. It makes a great statement.

    In the rules, you said the winner would be randomly chosen. Not that I would’ve won in that case anyway, but that’s not really fair to change the rules halfway through the contest, especially when all the entries had to follow those rules as well.

    Yay! Good choices. I personally was rooting for Emilia’s, but i like the others, too :)
