a backyard wedding with rushing river views and a dessert table that’ll leave you drooling. it seems that not a single detail was overlooked when planning #aaandbabe cailin and brian’s big day. when describing their wedding, cailin called it “riverside backyard, bright, intentional and SO fun” and well, we can’t think of a better descriptor. from sailing the river with white claws in hand to a white sailcloth tent for their outdoor reception, this couple celebrated their wedding day in cool, carefree style.

what says playful backyard wedding more than a fitted crepe wedding dress with fun pearl embellishment?! cailin brought the charm in ‘poppy’ by anais anette. this spaghetti strap mermaid wedding dress was striking with its open illusion back and stunning pearl covered train. we love that cailin kept her accessories minimal so that the wedding gown could shine. wearing her wavy hair down and rocking a stunning pair of hushed commotion earrings she actually won from us during a giveaway!

not only was her bridal styling spot on, but so were the details of the day. from bistro lights to embroidered cuffs and custom marquee letters, cailin and brian made sure to fill their big day with unique details. from their engagement, to their wedding day, and now many anniversaries ahead, we know this riverside haven will be home to so many special memories.
