Jamie & Jon’s three-day summer camp wedding

Let’s reminisce about being a kid with this summer camp wedding complete with crayons, popcorn favors, a “Hershey’s Kiss girl” instead of a flower girl, a camp out with a fire juggler, and an AMAZING pink ruffled corset gown (you may remember from here). Plus, get a load of the adorable matchy-match father and son kilts! My heart… I swoon! All that plus the sweetest groom-gets-teary first look ever.

Andrea & Matthew’s simple lakeside wedding weekend

This week we’re letting our hair down and getting back to nature in the wild, wild outdoors! Today’s couple wanted a fun weekend of roller skating, kayaking, and of course, a wedding by the shore. You’ll definitely want to see whose legs had potential to freak everyone out, and who did an epic 60-person high-fiving spree.

And you’ll never guess what kind of unexpected wedding crasher made his way to the ceremony!

A pared-down wedding weekend in South Africa

Edré and Riaan are both down-to-earth folks and planned a similarly down-to-earth, small and simple wedding. They decided, in lieu of having a honeymoon, to just extend the wedding to a weekend-long event and spend the extra time with family. This pared-down celebration is a great example of less is more.
