Brittany & Louis’ rustic farm wedding with the sweetest heat exhaustion moment ever

“Let us never forget the greatest love story ever told started with a mustache.” Thus begins the cutest wedding write-up turned fan ever. Between the epic, love letter-reading first look, the tearful father/daughter dance, and the choreographed flash mob, you’ll be hooked like whoa. Oh, and wait until you see how a little heat exhaustion became one of the sweetest ceremony moments we’ve seen.

Erica & Sean’s peaceful and elegant guests-included elopement

These two cuties were originally torn between a large shindig and a private elopement, but instead settled on an intimate tiny wedding with a few of their nearest and dearest. Plus, they introduced Indian food to a few newbies, which is always worthwhile. But the best part of all was their ceremony. Take a peek at their special reading and awesome ring vows.
