Very special dolls

I want to show you the most special amigurumi that I had made until now.

My friends Jesus and Lidia got married last Oct 20th and they want my dolls (and me, of course) to be present that day. I was asked to be a bridesmaid and commissioned me part of the wedding decoration.  Their very non traditional idea was to have a Freddie Mercury amigurumi made by me in the table of the judge that was going to marry them. And after that, Freddie would be the centerpiece of their table in the reception dinner.

I made a bigger version of the Freddie amigurumi I had already done, but the smaller one had also a prominent place and was worn by the bride  as a brooch in the civil ceremony. I was very happy and excited for this commission, so thank you, Lidia!

This Freddie has been the biggest amigurumi I had made until now, even if you don't count the base he is on.

This is the image  I used for inspiration:

The microphone unfortunately was a little bigger in proportion, but there was no time to change it... sorry!

The base is covered in dark green felt.

Here's a detail of the golden buckle, his moustache and legs:

I'm so glad they loved the results and that it was a surprise for the family and friends,
Here's a picture of me in front of the bride and groom's table at the reception... please ignore my silly face, but you can find Freddie on the table with the flower decorations  ^^

And since it was not a traditional wedding, I wanted to make some original wedding dolls for the happy couple. A groom dressed Patrick Star and Lydia from Beetlejuice ... it's a long story, they know why ;)

I tried to make  Lydia with a wedding dress, but she was more recognizable with the spiderweb dress :

I also came back home with a wonderful handmade present by Lidia. I love it, thank you so much!

I had such a great time at their wedding... it was very unique and personal and so moving. Thank you so much for letting me participate so actively in it. I wish you all the happiness in the world, guys, I love you both!
