Read MoreBackyard weddings are a popular and intimate option for couples looking for a casual and budget-friendly celebration. With a little planning and creativity, you can turn your backyard into the perfect setting for your special day.
One of the keys to successful backyard weddings is organization. Start by making a list of all the elements you'll need for your wedding, including tables, chairs, linens, and decorations. You'll also need to consider logistics, such as where you'll get ready, where the ceremony will take place, and where you'll have the reception.
Another important aspect of backyard weddings is setting the mood. Use decorations and lighting to create a cohesive and romantic atmosphere. Consider adding string lights, lanterns, or candles to add warmth and ambiance. You can also use flowers and greenery to add pops of color and create a natural and organic feel.
When it comes to food and drink, there are several options for backyard weddings. You can go the traditional route and hire a caterer, or you can opt for a more casual approach, such as a BBQ or potluck. Don't forget about the drinks – consider setting up a bar area with cocktails, wine, and beer for your guests to enjoy.
Overall, backyard weddings are a beautiful and intimate option for couples looking for a casual and budget-friendly celebration. With a little planning and creativity, you can turn your backyard into the perfect setting for your special day.

Read MoreEmily and Jim spent the morning of their wedding getting ready together in the home they share together. The morning was calm and familiar and the perfect setting before heading to the ceremony and reception location on their friend’s private property.
Their wedding ceremony took place under a thick rustic wooden arbor in front of a pond that was surrounded by trees whos leaves were just beginning to change color from the crisp early Fall evenings. Their friends and family sat in the warm Autumn sun witnessing Emily and Jim’s marriage become official.
I love the earthy vibe of the gifts for their wedding guests. Small plants in mini terracotta pots for their wedding guests to take home after the reception.
The wedding day florals including the bouquets and centerpieces on the tables in the reception space were homegrown. What a lovely personal touch. The colors were vibrant yellows and oranges mixed with deep maroon, a perfect combination for Fall wedding florals.
