Lauren and Robert’s desert wedding at The Ruin Venue was boho minimalism at its absolute finest! With the help of Heartthrob Weddings and Events, they brought their at-home style into the desert with vintage furniture, organic textiles, neutral florals from Tropic of Flowers, and tons of greenery. In keeping with the boho-chic vibe, Lauren chose a dramatic Rue De Seine gown and delicate flower crown, and her girls donned neutral Show Me Your Mumu that complemented her look beautifully! Between the bride arriving at the ceremony in a vintage car, the golden hour portraits, and the plate smashing at the reception, there were so many unforgettable moments that Sarah Linda Photography captured brilliantly! The Couple: Lauren and Robert The Wedding: The Ruin Venue, Joshua Tree, California When planning our wedding, the most important factor for us was finding a great venue that reflected who we are as a couple and giving our family and friends an experience they’d never had before. The most memorable part of the day was seeing all our family and friends in one place together to celebrate our special day. We had guests from England, Canada, Hong Kong, Cayman Islands, and Australia, so being reunited with everybody was an unbelievable feeling. Wedding Party Processional – “Heart of […]

After falling in love with Italy and getting engaged on the Amalfi Coast, Dorien and Philippe knew that Tuscany was the perfect region to say, “I do,” and Castello di Gabbiano was the ultimate venue to host their family and friends. The old-world architecture, the rolling vineyards, and the cozy atmosphere were perfect for a day that was filled with effortless glamour and rustic elegance. The couple’s florist, Wild Flowers & Wodka, added minimal arrangements in pinks, creams, and oranges that added a subtle softness to the classic rustic Italian setting. And the bride’s modern two-piece ensemble from Rime Arodaky added a touch of whimsical romance that we can’t get enough of! Kreativ Wedding nailed it in capturing every detail of this gorgeous Tuscan wedding! The Couple: Dorien and Philippe The Wedding: Castello di Gabbiano, Tuscany, Italy Instead of organizing a big traditional wedding in our home country (Belgium), we chose to have an intimate and small wedding weekend in Italy with our best friends and family. We both enjoy life, very much enjoy traveling, and sitting down for dinner with a good glass of wine with our friends or family. As our guests all took the effort to come to Italy especially for our wedding — we are […]

If modern romance and rustic desert vibes are your things, get ready for Chelsea and Kyle’s wedding at The Paseo to take your breath away! As a nod to their time in the Czech Republic, the couple focused on creating a relaxed atmosphere and used simple yet stunning details to show off their personal style. Lace & a Barn helped the couple bring their timeless yet non-traditional wedding dreams to life with gorgeous desert-hued floral designs, and the creative duo added antique details to give a vintage look to their rustic Arizona venue. This special day was brimming with emotional moments and epic views, all of which Alayna G. Clark Photography captured so beautifully! The Couple: Chelsea and Kyle The Wedding: The Paseo, Apache Junction, Arizona We wanted our wedding to be authentic to our style and include our closest friends and family. We lived abroad in the Czech Republic together and loved the laid back style of their weddings, including having one witness in their bridal party instead of a large group of bridesmaids and groomsmen. We chose to have our dearest friend by each of our sides to witness and attest to our love. My MOH surprised me with the most gorgeous and sentimental […]

With waterfront views and DIY details galore, Shannon and Emily’s wedding at Cuffey’s Cove Ranch was nothing short of incredible! Lead photographer Anni Graham and second shooter Marilia Lima were on hand to capture every dreamy moment of this special day, from the couple’s emotional first look and private vow reading on the coast to their down-home barn reception that was a total lovefest. The rustic vibes of the venue played perfectly with the DIY decor, which the couple and their loving family poured their hearts into, and the florals created by LR Farm added the loveliest pops of color. But, the true cherries on top of this beautiful day were Shannon and Emily’s stunning bridal looks from Casablanca Bridal and Mon Cheri Bridal, which highlighted each bride’s unique style while complementing each other brilliantly! The Couple: Shannon and Emily The Wedding: Cuffey’s Cove Ranch, Mendocino County, California It was very, very important to us that our wedding feel authentic and personal. We wanted every part of our day to be as unique to us and our relationship as possible. Mostly I think we just wanted our wedding to feel very “us”: playful, adventurous, and full of a once-in-a-lifetime, screaming with joy kind of love. While I think we both felt […]

The crisp, eclectic venue was the perfect backdrop for their intimate day and required almost no additional decor to make it look and feel stunning. The tropical-inspired floral design by Pina Cate featured vibrant pops of coral, orange, and pink, and the bride’s Karen Hendrix Couture gown was the perfect combination of beachy and chic to match the vibe of the entire day. Los Ébano photography did a truly brilliant job capturing every angle of this beautiful destination wedding! The Couple: Lisa and Sam The Wedding: Hotel San Cristobal, Todos Santos, Mexico Sam is Australian and I am American, but we’ve spent time living in both countries with family and close friends spread all over the world.

We even considered our favorite local Mexican restaurant. That was when we realized that there were only a few things we wanted at our wedding: good food, good drinks, and good people. Anyone who […]

Photographer Malorie Kerouac was on hand to capture every dreamy moment, from their sweet woodsy portraits to their garden ceremony.

If you’ve been looking for romantic, rustic wedding inspiration, you’ve just hit the jackpot! The Couple: Brittany and Tyler The Wedding: Fireseed Catering, Whidbey Island, Washington The most important thing was to create a day that felt like us, the ideal day that Tyler and I could ever have together. It was important for us to enjoy the process and stay present in the moment. My fashion/beauty idea was to be timeless and sophisticated, yet fun! I ended up with an ivory crepe, V-neck dress (timeless!) with an illusion lace back and tulip lace train. I loved that I felt so classic but also had fun aspects in the back. My hairstyle was similar — it was a curly ponytail […]
