Kim & Brandon knew they wanted a small intimate wedding since neither of them like to be the center of attention. And it just so happened that they had already booked a vacation to the Tetons prior to their engagement; it just made sense to use that trip for their nuptials! So they planned a destination, elopement-style wedding, inviting only a few of their closest people. Kim told us that "the epic views of the jagged mountains reminisce of Patagonia now seem like the perfect spot to start our forever adventure."

Windrift Hall Upstate New York Wedding in Fall

Hannah and Dan planned the sweetest, most elegant, and picturesque wedding in the heart of the Hudson Valley at Windrift Hall.

Canyon Run Ranch Wedding in Early Fall

Chase and Karina held the most beautiful early autumn wedding at Canyon Run Ranch.

The ranch itself has everything—from wildflowers fields to waterfalls to a woodland area perfectly cleared for a ceremony space. For Chase and Karina’s wedding, the raw and wild ceremony arbor was adored in hanging florals, and at the entrance to the aisle stood a doorway of hanging white petals. The owners of the ranch, Amy and Gary, have a keen eye for design, and created the arbor—it stands ready for all their couples; and the Twilight inspired floral installation was beautifully crafted by the flower goddess Flohemian Floral.

Waterstone Venue Eastern Tennessee Airbnb Wedding

From the diy florals to the thrifted goods, to the reason they chose the venue, every little detail of Megan & Bryan’s wedding was beautifully thought out and crafted to show their aesthetic, making it truly them.

Since they were engaged in the Smoky Mountains, Megan & Bryan knew they wanted to get away and have an intimate wedding in Tennessee. Megan searched all over the region until she came upon Waterstone in a blog post. Since it’s newly opened, the venue’s online presence is still pretty limited. So she reached out over direct message, immediately knowing this is the place they’d be wed.

Bentwood Inn Wedding in Jackson Hole Wyoming

The front porch of the Inn is perfectly framed with a lush garden, and decorated with classic western furniture, wagon wheels and other unique antiques from the region. The creek boardering the edge of the property was flowing beautifully due to the recent snow melt, and a pleasant breeze moved the surrounding cottonwood trees like a song. The ceremony was set with the aisle leading up to the base of three of these trees. It was like they were grown here as a trio for this very moment—it was the perfect spot.

Fairytale Wedding at Castle Farms

Megan planned her dream fairytale wedding from afar as she and Rainer live in Ohio and Castle Farms is located in Charlevoix (which is in Northwestern Michigan). Since their wedding was going to be at such a magically aesthetic place, it was only natural that the getting ready locations match the feeling—the Mushroom Houses were perfect. Both homes seemed to have come straight from the story of Snow White.

Outdoor Wedding in Yellow Springs Ohio

Seth & Hailey’s genuine hearts, devotion, and unbreakable bond made their wedding at Wirrig Pavilion in Yellow Springs, Ohio, a day no one in attendance will ever forget.

The forecast called for rain for the entire day, but until late afternoon there was nothing but sunshine. Seth & Hailey were able to have their first look and take bridal party portraits with us in the warmth of full afternoon sun. When we were finished with portraits, a thunderstorm rolled in and it poured; but the rain only stayed long enough to cool off the August heat. The skies cleared in time for their beautiful outdoor ceremony.

Backyard Fall Wedding in Cincinnati

Melanie always dreamed of getting married at her childhood home, but with the amount of people they knew that they wanted to include in the celebration, she never thought it would be possible. However, because of the pandemic and the need to cut the guest list short for everyone’s safety, her childhood dream actually became a reality.

Melanie & Josh held their lovely intimate ceremony next to her parent’s home on top of a hill that overlooks a stunning view of the lake. It was a pleasantly clear and warmer day for mid-October, so the sunset gave off a beautiful glow through the peak fall foliage that lined the driveway.
