featured designer
lacing up your boots, ready to hike into a brand new life. one full of promise and passion. a new life where you remain so much the same yet somehow transform. your ring finger finds itself with a lifelong accessory… and you, a lifelong friend. friendship as a child might have looked like a summer camp cabins. short swims in the lake and s’mores by the fire pit. easy and effortless days, weeks, and months free of time. well, perhaps the beauty of love is that it allows some sense of that freeness to return. when once again time stands still, trees stand tall, and together you slowly begin to conquer all.
this delightful styled mountain elopement brought about a sense of freedom and intimacy that so many long for when planning an elopement. some of our favorite photos are the getting ready shots as these two prepare for their big day together. fastening their matching hiking boots on the a-frame’s deck before embarking to the lake for more photos. walking to the water was no easy task in these flowy tulle wedding dresses, but these two were up for the challenge. we love how ‘max’ by made with love’s delicate floral embroidery along the chic corset bodice compliments ‘cherry’ by alena leena’s all over three-dimensional floral lace. these soft a-line wedding dresses are a welcome and elegant addition to this dense forest fairytale wedding.
and we couldn’t let the opportunity pass to hype up this enchanting woods wedding picnic. if you’re looking for cottagecore wedding vibes you’ve found that and then some. a wondrous woodland elopement complete with a wild berry wedding cake and champagne. literal icing on the cake to what could only be described as the best. day. ever.
