This pair could not be more gorgeous and we can’t stop looking. Don’t miss the pants-splitting chair dance, too!

Rustic loveliness on a budget: a potluck wedding with oodles of style

The bride wore a chic pantsuit, the groom wore locs and paisley, and the DIYed rustic burlap details (including a chic as hell fabric flower bouquet!) are killer. This potluck wedding has so much style on so little budget. Oh, and just wait until you hear how the bride walked herself down the aisle. Spoiler alert: she SANG A SONG while she walked. Oh hell yes. Get ready to swoon at this amazing wedding.

Don’t miss the house gems, the house-themed centerpieces, the red butterbeer, and this gorgeously geeky pair in love.

When we talk about a stress-free wedding, this is what we are talking about: streamlined vendors, already rad venue space, and a laid-back mindset.

Oh, and we have the return of… the unity sandwich!
