This Virginia mountain elopement is giving us so many tiny wedding FEELS

This Virginia mountain elopement is giving us so many tiny wedding FEELS

Healey and Allie were planning a 100-person Washington, DC wedding in the spring, but as they got deeper into wedding planning, they realized how miserable it was making them. They knew that bigger weddings were right for some people, but for them, it was all about a gorgeous Virginia mountain elopement.

We've got wild-eyed love for this handmade forest wedding

We’ve got wild-eyed love for this handmade forest wedding

From the most gorgeous bohemian outfits to the lush forest backdrop, this handmade forest wedding stole our hearts. It was a three-day party with barbecue, accordions, a pie cutting, and a TON of dancing. Plus, you’ll get a great lesso in learning to chill when it comes to things going wrong. Let’s take a peek at this fabulous wedding…

Don’t miss the stunning golden gown at this industrial shoot

When we saw this styled shoot come in, it was full-on starry-eyed emoji time. The white embellished gown? The FAB golden gown?! The bejeweled headpiece?! It’s all too much to take in and we’re loving it. Plus, put this pair in the industrial chic backdrop of the Art District of Manchester, Richmond, VA, and it’s a perfect dichotomy. It’s traditional meets totally not, which is kinda how we roll anyway. Shall we take a look? You know you can’t stop…

This super chic 1950s vintage wedding wins our hearts

This super chic vintage tropical wedding wins our hearts

Looking at this wedding is like being transported into a 1950s-era South Seas movie set. From dapper-as-hell, perfectly cut suits (floral! metallic! bold colors! our hearts!), kitschy tchotchkes from their home, milk glass planters, vintage ceramic figurines, antique cameo brooches, there is so much to take in.

Anthony and Michael-Birch are two artists (musician and embroiderer), and took a surprisingly practical approach to their stylish wedding. They wanted to keep things simple, focusing on putting on a fun celebration but not breaking the bank or getting carried away with old traditions or extraneous decorations.

Poe and rock wedding as seen on @offbeatbride

Once upon a midnight dreary, we fell for this Poe wedding

Tamara and Sam’s theme is seriously one of our favorites: “rock ‘n’ Poe” — all things Edgar Allen Poe meets rock ‘n’ roll. They DIYed a lot of the goth details, and dinner was a breakfast bar. Between the fabulous black gown (which was actually billed as a “mother of the bride dress” — wut), the killer groom outfit and epic beard, and the black and white lace cake, we love this wedding with a love that’s more than a love. Okay, no more Poe quotes, I promise.
