Laura & Daniel’s Pagan archery and knitting wedding
These nature-loving Pagans were handfasted years ago, but they knew it was time to get it recognized. With archery influences and an amazing knitted bouquet, buttonholes, and even the cake topper, this wedding is a sight to see. Side note: hiring a photographer might have been the best move they made based on these gorgeous park shots.
Melany & David’s small handmade garden party wedding
Sometimes couples are confronted with traditions they love and offbeat trends they love, and somehow have to meld it all into a cohesive celebration. These two did that and more. Take special note of the amazing DIY doily archway, the intricate centerpieces, and the tear-filled groom — *swoon.* Come for the lawn games, stay for the sentiment of the group poetry reading.
Megan & Jay’s last-minute change solstice wedding
Sometimes you plan an intimate NOLA elopement, and sometimes life gets in the way. So when life prevented this couple from doing just that, they decided to plan an elegant hometown wedding with friends and family instead. And this beach-side family party with stone warming ceremony is just perfect for our Simple Weddings week.
Jen & David’s laid-back Tennessee barbecue wedding
These two were not getting married — no way, no how. Except then they did, which made the whole shebang offbeat in itself. On top of that, they opted for a casual, outdoor ceremony with some kick-ass barbecue afterwards from the local joint they love. It was simple, small, and perfect for these two, who exemplify our simple weddings week.
