Homebodies unite: some of our favorite at home weddings EVER
Simone and Andrew’s at home wedding was practically a how-to in at-home awesomeness. They made total use of foliage, extra seating, fairy lights, and a portable dance floor (oh, and a flower grandma!) to make their home seem like wedding venue magic. You can do it, too! It may not be the right choice for everyone, but at home weddings can be just as glorious as any other kind and we’ve got the proof.
Let’s walk down memory lane to see some of our very favorite weddings at home…
Two professors rock an at-home stunning DIY wedding (with a vintage dress!)
Rachel and Ali are both Political Science professors at Princeton University.

They took some photos at Princeton and danced all night under a tent with rain all day. Just wait until you see this dress…

This woodsy chic backyard wedding was a labor of love
Corey and George had an intimate wedding that celebrated the vibrant colors of fall and their waterfront backyard venue in the woods.

The groom surprised everyone with a live band, and they provided a huge drawing board for the kids and anyone who wanted to leave a love note for them. It was a chic backyard wedding, and a lovely labor of love with local vendors and gorgeous details.
