Lacey & Jason’s feminist Jewish mountain feast and dance party
If you’re in the mood to be dazzled by smiles and tender moments, this wedding is the balm for your soul. The whole ceremony is a montage of moments that could be scripted, but we totally guess that they weren’t! These two are just that adorable. Come see the choreographed dance, wedding party entourage, and amazing scenery.
Julie & Trevor’s mountain handfasting with drums
This week we’re celebrating woodsy, outdoor weddings before it gets too cold. Today we’ve got a blend of offbeat and traditional in a mountain setting. Think wildflowers, a ring warming, and a whole drum corps of “groomsdrummers” ready to lead you into a meadow surrounded by forest.
Heather & John’s secular, no-vow, Alaskan mountaintop wedding
Look, let me just say in advance: we put a lot of puppy shots into this wedding. It couldn’t be resisted. It just happened and now you have to live with it. You’re welcome. But really, the views in this wedding alone make it a must-see. Oh, and the flower girl dresses. And the rainbow cakes. Oh yeah, and the sweet father/daughter dance to Green Day. Oh and yeah, the most adorable puppers ever to crash a ceremony. Don’t take my word for it: go look!
Kimmy and Erik “party forever” at their gorgeous, earthy, live music showcase wedding
Who wants to see Managing Editor Megan’s first time as a bridesmaid? Her two very close friends, Erik and Kimmy, married each other in chic bohemian style, in the Los Angeles mountains. Come for the live music (the groom is a musician), but stay for the fashion (the bride is a stylist).
Sheena & James’ whimsical mountain love celebration
This is the story of a media-obsessed bride becoming wedding media herself. But in this case, the bride totally made peace with her obsession and ended up with a wedding to rival all the ones she idolized. Her red gown, colorful fall decor, and epic venue with a mountain backdrop all make us wish we were right there with them. Just watch out for Zorro and Pancho Villa… there’s bound to be a fight there.
Jessie & Benjamin’s yogi + Deadhead dream mountain wedding
Oh, rural mountain views… you tease us with your splendor and ability to lure in gorgeous tiny weddings like this one. Cowboy boots, acoustic guitars, and carrot cake await you. The flowers, campfire, and sunny weather just taunt you. And we’re all falling in love with these sage-wielding, poem reading yogis and Deadheads.
