1.1k September 21, 2018 Some of the best alternative wedding Instagram accounts we could find We love the wedding community on Instagram and how it's grown to be a place to find vendors, like-minded couples, and endless inspiration… even for us offbeat and alternative types!

I wanted to have a hand in the layout of the rooms, even if I can't physically be there for the set up.
