Elizabeth & Eric’s spiritually artsy DIY playground wedding

We’ve featured lot of the DIY details from this wedding already, but this is finally the full story, including the best bits of all.

This wedding was a big gay dance party in the mountains

Take two men in love, a weekend long party full of dancing, pies, and even Jazzercize, and you get the wedding of Chad and Matt. And any couple who provides parasols, ribbon streamers, and cardboard cutouts for their “gigantic gay discotheque” is aces in my book.

Wildflowers and farmland at this clifftop wedding in Wisconsin

Instead of feeling like a wedding, the goal was “first family reunion.” And after finding an awesome farm locale with hay rides and lawn games, the potluck dessert and flowers came naturally to finish off the event. Despite planning from a state away, these two found help in their friends and family to pull it off. Put on your farm boots and check it out.
