"Fun-loving couple Adam and Kaet (better known as duritz around these parts!) shut down her parents&amp;#x27; street for a playful block-party wedding with adorable DIY touches. You&amp;#x27;ll wish you were invited once you check out these wedding pictures. Before we get to the crazy-fun reception (with glow-sticks and Silly Bandz!), I have to tell you the funniest thing: Kaet&amp;#x27;s sister-in-law was originally a bridesmaid, but then dropped out when she got pregnant and found out she was due around the time of the wedding (I swear that&amp;#x27;s not the funny part). So the couple made a cardboard cutout of her--in a bridesmaid dress!--and her hubby &amp;quot;walked her down the aisle.&amp;quot; Guests easily found their way thanks to this DIY wedding sign. Brightly hued pomanders hung from trees to create a cheery scene. And paper lanterns added pops of color during the day and some extra lighting when night fell. Guess who got to sit in these seats? Glow-sticks made surprisingly pretty reception table decorations. Don&amp;#x27;t worry; guests got to use the accessories for their intended purpose. Speaking of accessories, guests also got to grab Silly Bandz! And check out the DIY card holder in the back. Isn&amp;#x27;t this couple just the funnest? Mmm..cupcakes. The quintessential casual wedding dessert. And on a custom tower! Nighttime wedding pictures with glow necklaces are just that much cooler. Though the couple made their grand exit, sparklers and all, at midnight, the party kept going until the wee hours of the morning. Would you hold your wedding in the neighborhood you grew up in? How do you think the neighbors would feel about it (Kaet&amp;#x27;s family&amp;#x27;s neighbors were psyched!)? Would you invite everyone on the block?
