A sweet barn wedding with a string band

Maggie and Theresia made almost all of the decor themselves including all of the tablecloths, bunting, and book centerpieces. Friends made their cake and each of their grandmas made cookies. One of their favorite memories was when their friends, who had formed a band and practiced for weeks for this event, performed “Home” by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.

Taymar & Max’s summer camp weekend wedding

Offbeat Brides have been submitting lots of gorgeous woodsy weddings, so we’ve compiled a few of our favorites in a forest theme week including this nostalgically-inspired summer camp wedding. Oh, and you’ll soon learn about something called “hippie clown camp.” Who’s signing up with me?

Angi & Erik’s upcycled country barn wedding

This was a wedding with a lot of hidden surprises: I didn’t see the awesome bouquet, brunch buffet, and upcycled window/seating chart until I hit the Flickr set! There is a lot of DIY to see, a few repurposed items (bride’s dress, machinist-made rings!), and a whole lot of sweet details in this countrified barn wedding.

Lara & Matt’s mid-summer musical forest wedding

Just a few of the elements of this wedding that I love: the “Just Married” skidder, the pine cone heart, the flash mob belly dance, the accordion accompaniment to the ceremony, the Black Hawk helicopter fly-over, and oh, about a million more things. You might want to check it out to see what I didn’t list.
