Liza & Kyle’s rustic Scandinavian-inspired wedding

Give us a rustic venue and gorgeous flowers any day. But add in some Wiccan and Scandanavian handfasting details, awesome rustic and mustache-y decor, and some Vengaboys(!) and we’re smitten. Take a peek at this wedding for some sweet silliness and good old fashioned fun.

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.

Siobhan & Chadwick’s moon-loving techno-hippie wedding

When the couple calls themselves “moon-loving techno-hippies,” we know we’re in for some fun. Get ready for some family vows (and a family sand ceremony!), some cat-loving vows, and a desert horizon at a ranch that ended up being their ideal location. It’s a small, outdoor wedding with big heart.

Courtney & Carli’s DIYed rustic barn wedding

Nestled in a barn, a wedding took place with loads of DIY projects, two brides in black and white, bibliophile details, and a feisty, bubble-loving pooch. They self-catered, self-decorated, and put their hearts and souls into this gorgeous venue. And just wait until you read about their realistic-meets-earthy ring ceremony!

Katie & Gordon’s bird-themed barn wedding featuring a naughty goose

This bird-themed wedding started with the perfect wildlife preserve venue. Flocks of fauna and a peacock circle made for some feather-y awesomeness. Except for when one very bold goose decided to invade the ceremony. But aside from rogue geese, this gorgeous wedding was luminous. Wait until you see the bride’s amazing feather sleeves!

Jamielynn & Matthew’s wedding weekend with a trebuchet

Campfires, archery, boating, a ropes course, and a giant creme donut — it’s the wedding of any outdoors-y kid’s dreams. This pair also built an epic “trebouquet” for the bouquet toss! Oh, and just wait until you hear about their funniest moment involving an adorable grandmother ad-lib.
