This backyard labor of love wedding is darkly beautiful with rich reds (in hair, clothes, and decor!), an awesome handmade feast, and a courtyard ceremony full of tears and handwritten vows.

These backyard brides triumphed with killer suits at their house on the shore

Casey and Stephanie’s chic wedding was hosted in their backyard at the New Jersey Shore in their custom-made suits (by Bindle & Keep!). It was a triumph of style, epic love, AND adversity, as you’ll see. Korean fusion tacos, customized glasses, a homemade Rice Krispies wedding cake, and suits that were the envy of all!

Get ready for the chic-as-hell outfits made this Texas wedding

Tacos, oak trees, and chic-as-hell outfits made this Texas backyard wedding incredible

Steph and Shawna seriously know how to rock coordinated pants outfits like pros. They knew black was more them anyway. On a friend’s property in a grove of oak trees, they had a laughter-filled ceremony including an amazing poem written by a friend. They collaborated with some friends and family to help design the centerpieces, floral arrangements, and cake to make the reception a work of their community. Let’s party alongside these two ladies and their chic style…

Sweet and subtle shine at this gorgeous backyard wedding

Samantha and Steven tied the knot at their gorgeous backyard wedding at Steven’s childhood home, complete with a cozy lounge out in the field and a barn and pretty foliage everywhere… and SIGH. There were vintage details, family heirlooms, and even an old skool Polaroid camera in play. Sweet part incoming: they took a few minutes out of their morning to share and read letters from each other before walking down the aisle.

Don’t miss Samantha’s boho chic two-piece dress that was hand-embroidered by a family friend.

Some of our favorite weddings at home ever

Homebodies unite: some of our favorite at home weddings EVER

Simone and Andrew’s at home wedding was practically a how-to in at-home awesomeness. They made total use of foliage, extra seating, fairy lights, and a portable dance floor (oh, and a flower grandma!) to make their home seem like wedding venue magic. You can do it, too! It may not be the right choice for everyone, but at home weddings can be just as glorious as any other kind and we’ve got the proof.

Let’s walk down memory lane to see some of our very favorite weddings at home…
