Good food, good wine and good company were the three key ingredients to India and Ashley\u2019s rustic wedding.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe put so much love and effort into planning our big day,\u201d India says.<\/p>\n

The budget-conscious couple went the DIY route, taking on organising the rustic wedding and saving their pennies by arranging flowers themselves and opting for food trucks.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis allowed us to live large in the USA for our honeymoon,\u201d India says.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd we proved you can have a DIY wedding without any meltdowns!\u201d<\/p>\n

The couple wed on a family property at Balhannah, in the Adelaide Hills, on February 3, 2018 in front of about 90 friends and family.<\/p>\n

Mismatched chairs, hay bales and a timber arbour adorned with foliage created a rustic feel at the outdoor ceremony.<\/p>\n

Vintage armchairs, rugs and chests created the same laid-back vibe at the reception, with beautiful views over the Adelaide Hills.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe kept everything simple, intimate and true to us,\u201d the bride says.<\/p>\n
