Devon & Joe’s amusement park picnic wedding
Prepare to revisit your favorite amusement park days with this awesomely youthful wedding surrounded by rides, candy, and theme park food. The bride wore an epic corseted fantasy dress and their recessional wasn’t just walking out, it was a ride through the haunted house ride! The groom may have forgotten his vows, but trust me, there’s enough risque fabulousness in the ceremony to make up for it.
Toni & Mark’s Civil War costumed picnic wedding
With a love for Civil War reenactment, it was no surprise that this couple and their friends were totally down for a period costume picnic. Add in tons of help from those friends and family with a potluck pulled pork feast, and you’ve got a community-supported party in the making. You’ll also want to hear the story of the groom saving the bride from a rogue box fan.
Traci & Tony’s mismatched picnic forest wedding
One way to stay on a budget: have access to an amazing farm venue for free! This gorgeous outdoor setting was the perfect backdrop for this couple’s thrifty (and thrifted) ceremony and forest reception. Starting out with some “Smooch Hooch,” following the chalkboard signs, and ending up in a lighted glen… I think I can handle that kind of party.
Katy & Aytan’s potluck picnic wedding in the park
I just love simple and sweet weddings filled with love and no pretension. Give me a potluck in the park with the nearest and dearest and I’m sold. This wedding has that and a whole lot of sweetness between the couple. Just don’t accuse the groom of crying — it was obviously just his hair gel getting in his eyes.
Spring & Alex’s colorful lawn games and giant pillows wedding
One look at the pink crinoline, the multicolored roses, and “cakeluck” display, and you’ll be begging for more. Picture a beautiful daytime wedding in the park complete with lawn games, giant pillows to lounge on, and a ceremony that started with “Can I get a ‘hell yeah’?”
