Jenifer & Shawn’s last-minute backyard BBQ wedding
A vintage dress to die for, a heart theme (including awesome headpiece!), fun with piñatas, and the sweetest homemade book about their relationship — you’re in for a backyard wedding with a ton of heart(s). These two moved their wedding date up seven months to coincide with a birthday party and Easter weekend, which left them with only days to finish. But finish they did, and you’ll want to see the result.
Jolene & Jasin’s bookworm weds artist wedding
Our Bookish theme week brings us this Indiana wedding with a librarian’s touch: cupcakes on children’s classics, “Just Married” Scrabble tiles, and library card invites. But a highlight of the day was definitely when their dog, Puppers, stood as fourth bridesmaid. Fur babies FTW!

Lizette & Mike’s simple secular country wedding

Jenna & Trevor’s vegan tree-hugging wedding

Megan & Jay’s last-minute change solstice wedding
