Remote and Rustic Vietnamese Elopement at Núi Hàm Lợn

December 19, 2016 | Junebug Weddings

remote-and-rustic-vietnamese-elopement-at-nui-ham-lon-16

Phuong Anh and Linh are anything but conventional, so they embraced their roots and had a remote and aesthetically gorgeous elopement in their favorite Vietnam park, Núi Hàm Lợn. The couple enlisted the planning expertise of Hatmem as well as the photography skills of Tu Nguyen Wedding to organize and capture their dream wedding weekend. The celebration involved a motorcycle ride, a romantic boat session, a picture-perfect campsite, and, of course, an emotional ceremony. We think Phuong Anh and Linh’s elopement perfectly captures their love for each other and ability to improvise — especially when their first look was thwarted by a rainstorm!

The Couple:

Phuong Anh and Linh

The Wedding:

Núi Hàm Lợn, Hanoi, Vietnam

The first look was the most memorable part. Shortly before we saw each other the first time, it was raining so heavily so we had to change our plan and such other things. We were a bit anxious.. But the photos turned out so worth it.

Our wedding vibes were rustic, free spirited, and romantic. We broke free from the traditional expectations of Vietnamese weddings!

Our venue was it’s in a region that’s remote enough, not so touristic, and not too far away from our hometown.

Beautifully Bohemian Virginia Beach Wedding

December 18, 2016 | Junebug Weddings

beautifully-bohemian-virginia-beach-wedding-chelsea-diane-photography-16

A draped macrame ceremony arch, vintage-inspired Anna Campbell gown, and mind-blowing private waterfront venue make Parisa and Tyler’s Virginia Beach wedding quintessentially boho chic from beginning to end. Kate Fiore Floral Design created some seriously earthy vibes with the bouquets, flower crowns, and accents spread throughout the space. We’re totally obsessed with the couple’s personal touches, especially their wicker, lace, and leather sweetheart nook. We also love how they chose mainly summer colors of white, green, and blush but added accents of deep red and purple to signify the transition into fall. Chelsea Diane Photography perfectly captured this couple’s free-spirited and stylish flare!

The Couple:

Parisa and Tyler

The Wedding:

Private Residence, Virginia Beach, Virginia

I LOVED MY DRESS! I found it on Pinterest and basically it wasn’t going to be over until it was mine. It’s the Coco dress by Anna Campbell. She’s an Australian designer, so I was going to get it shipped from there. Turns out, she was having a trunk show at Lovely Bride, in DC. Long story short, I went to the trunk show and got it! I love it because it is so me: boho with bling. My braided hair and smokey eye went so well with it, too.

Neither of us are religious. So, we wrote our own vows with our awesome wedding planner directing the ceremony. It was very special, and reading/hearing our own words is something I will never forget.

We had a intimate ceremony. We originally planned (and even put a deposit down) for an extravagant wedding at a venue in Northern VA. We sooner realized that it both was not us, so we decided to go with a small ceremony and 70 person reception at my dad’s new home. It was absolutely perfect and I couldn’t imagine it going any other way!

It’s so hard to pick just one memorable moment. I would probably say getting ready and spending the day with our 16-month-old daughter. It was so special to have her there and a part of everything. Plus, not many men can say they shared their special day with his TWO girls!

We didn’t want anything extravagant, because that just isn’t us at this stage in our life. We love everything about boho decor!

The ceremony and reception were at my dad’s newly built house. It sits on the water and literally looks like it was made for a wedding. It made it that much more special!

We gave mini air plants as wedding favors! They were in little ceramic pots with a “thank you” sticker. We chose air plants mainly because they are super cute, and they are so easy to take care of.

Elegant Marsala and Champagne Manitoba Wedding at The Rustic Wedding Barn

December 18, 2016 | Junebug Weddings

elegant-marsala-and-champagne-manitoba-wedding-at-the-rustic-wedding-barn-ariana-tennyson-photography-23

Between the deep red and shimmery gold hues and the family-style Thanksgiving meal, Alysha and Trevor’s Manitoba wedding has us beyond ready for the cozy days of winter! Rather than focus on a particular vibe, the couple chose to create an intimate atmosphere at The Rustic Wedding Barn, filled with close friends and family, amazing food, and live music. The bride’s classic white ballgown from Modern Trousseau Nashville had a fairytale-like quality that we absolutely love! Our favorite moment might just be when the groom presented his bride with a red rose at the reception – our Bachelor-loving hearts swooned a bit! Ariana Tennyson Photography did a beautiful job capturing all of the romantic and elegant moments of this wedding.

The Couple:

Alysha and Trevor

To personalize the ceremony, we had a close family friend – who used to be our pastor – marry us. We also wrote our own personalized vows and had the bride’s siblings sing 2 songs throughout the ceremony. We also included our adorable little puppy as our ring bearer!

We served a Thanksgiving family-style meal, all of which was gluten and lactose free. The menu consisted of: cauliflower and kale soup, apple fennel salad with poppyseed dressing, stuffed pork loin with fig and roasted onion, rhubarb chicken, Yukon gold mashed potatoes, and roasted beets/carrots/broccoli.

For dessert, we asked several of our family members and friends to help create an outstanding assortment of baked goods to add to our Thanksgiving themed menu!
