We LOVE grooms with long hair — wear it down, wear it up, braid it, we don’t care! We want to touch it. If you’re into more groom hair stuff, you may also want to check out our bearded grooms.

Traci & Tony’s mismatched picnic forest wedding

One way to stay on a budget: have access to an amazing farm venue for free! This gorgeous outdoor setting was the perfect backdrop for this couple’s thrifty (and thrifted) ceremony and forest reception. Starting out with some “Smooch Hooch,” following the chalkboard signs, and ending up in a lighted glen… I think I can handle that kind of party.

Elly & Nick’s vintage/redneck planned-in-30-days wedding

These two are a hot mess of mixed-up genres and I LOVE IT! A vintage gal rockin’ a retro look and a self-described redneck guy from Alaska roasting a pig in the backyard. And you’re going to love their forest-y mushroom cupcakes, caramel apples, and adorable backyard setup.

Amy & Jess’ glittery rustic barn wedding

Take one adorably crazy cat man with awesome hair, one Rubik’s cube-teaching bride, lots of helpful yoga-performing and cupcake tier-fixing friends and family, and a weekend of activities, and you’ll get a wedding I want to have attended. Sadly, I didn’t, but we can relive the events with wistful eyes and share in the joy that is a wedding with puzzle place cards and crossword programs.
