Dana and Joel, two lovebirds living in San Diego, got married on the bride's family ranch in Boulevard, California. Dana, along with friends and relatives, created tons DIY touches -- including the centerpieces, which were actually finished a month before the wedding!
Check out their wedding gallery (chock-full of images by Sean Walker) to see the fun way the bride entered the ceremony, the hand-crafted invitations, and the special surprise that appeared right after they tied the knot.
