Nathalie & Stephen’s family-friendly, on their own farm wedding

Hosting a wedding on your farm can be a whole lot of work, and this one was no exception. But when there’s a barn built in 1955 and an old farm house at your disposal, how can you not? Get ready for games, dogs, smudging at the ceremony, and a truly beautiful ceremony in the round.

unity sandwich

Stacie & Nate know how to throw a stress-free wedding (including a unity sandwich!)

When we talk about a stress-free wedding, this is what we are talking about: streamlined vendors, already rad venue space, and a laid-back mindset. Come see what this couple did to make this happen, all while making everything look RAD. Don’t miss the massive amounts of pies with adorable salt and pepper shaker toppers. Oh, and we have the return of… the unity sandwich!

Sea monster hair!

“Sea monster hair” inspired Alex & Greg’s peacock fairy tale wedding

Seeing this bride’s hair will probably get you clicking, but just in case that wasn’t enough: wait until you see all the blue and purple details, peacock feathers, fabulous “something borrowed” jewels, and DIY hand-encrusted Swarovski shoes. You’ll also love this couple’s solution for missing some photos at their original ceremony site.

Pugs, brooches, and glamour: Catherine & Chris’ quirky pug lovin’ wedding

Some people may balk at your photos with your beloved pups, but this couple knows exactly how to ignore those silly “rules” — your pugs, your photos, your way! Add in the playing card details, the GIANT red + brooch flowers, super sentimental brooch bouquet, chic as hell groomswoman, and adorably mismatched ceremony seating, and you’ll be as much in love as we are.
