Jessica & Max’s small handmade secular handfasting

This couple was able to pull off some amazing handcrafted decor, a full self-catered buffet, a FABULOUS handmade dress (by the bride!), and even some home-grown entertainment all on a budget and with tons of style. This intimate wedding was also planned from across the country, so we know it took some serious coordination.

Katy & Aytan’s potluck picnic wedding in the park

I just love simple and sweet weddings filled with love and no pretension. Give me a potluck in the park with the nearest and dearest and I’m sold. This wedding has that and a whole lot of sweetness between the couple. Just don’t accuse the groom of crying — it was obviously just his hair gel getting in his eyes.

Michelle & Adric’s adventure in ancient ruins wedding

Mayan ruins, a luscious deep blue corseted gown, a dashing groom who saves the ceremony… this is a wedding to savor. It practically teleports you to Belize and their amazing resort. Just watch out for the bride’s grandmother… she might tell you the real, naughty name of your drink!
