A pared-down wedding weekend in South Africa

Edré and Riaan are both down-to-earth folks and planned a similarly down-to-earth, small and simple wedding.

Dawn & Benjamin’s off-the-grid forest handfasting

This pair both studied sustainability at a gorgeous venue on Cortes Island, BC, so it only made sense to bring their loved ones there to celebrate their marriage. And those same guests pulled together to provide tons of help in preparing for this camp-out wedding in the forest. But the best part of all is the bride’s HAND-PAINTED dress! You have to see it.
