Rustic DIY Wedding at Rosedew Farm

July 17, 2015 | Junebug Weddings

Rustic-DIY-Wedding-at-Rosedew-Farm (22 of 23)

Jennifer and Shaun’s wedding was the the ultimate get-a-way. Their venue, Rosedew Farm in Wales, is made up of five secluded cottages, a perfect stage for this couple’s rustic wedding design. Choosing a light and simple color palette, Jennifer and Shaun let the building’s character speak for itself. We love the stringed lighting, which added a romantic touch to the decor! Silver Birch Photography captured the sweetest moments at this vintage, countryside wedding.

The Couple:

Jennifer and Shaun

The Wedding:

Rosedew Farm, Vale Of Glamorgan, Wales

The Inspiration:

We wanted a wedding that represented us so we looked for a venue that we could decorate and would allow us to create our own perfect day. Rosedew Farm certainly let you do this as you bring and hire everything yourself. We wanted a winter wedding as I love candles so we had lots of candles, lanterns and fairy lights, which looked beautiful and warmed up the place although we were very lucky with the weather. We made a lot of things ourselves I would say our inspiration was vintage/rustic.

The Moments:

Our favourite moment of the wedding day was when we saw each other for the first time that day. I couldn’t wait for Shaun to see me in my dress and to see how handsome he looked in his suit. I started walking down the aisle and looked straight at Shaun. As my eyes met his, his face lit up, I nearly bursted out crying but held it together. I cant describe the feeling I had, it was just like it was me and him in the room, and it finally felt real! From this moment all we did is smile the whole day. Also, the speeches were very moving.

The Couple Recommends:

We also used Plan It UK to run our bar which we would highly recommend. They ran the bar and made sure all drinks were topped up during speeches. I honestly feel that everyone involved in the day of our wedding was outstanding, everything ran so smoothly and we would highly recommend them all. Also the band were outstanding you can check them out on you tube as they don’t have a site at the moment.

Unique Wedding Tablescapes from Elizabeth Duncan Events

July 17, 2015 | Junebug Weddings

rainbow-Elizabeth-Ducan (4 of 6)

Every couple deserves a color palette and wedding design that is true to their style. That’s why Elizabeth Duncan Events has put together four distinctive table-setting designs that are sure to inspire creativity this wedding season! Pulling this season’s inspiration straight from the runway, Elizabeth tells you her creative process along the way.

Colorful Party

Pops of color add a punch here and there, but, this year, the runways were full of rainbow stripes. Blending this trend with bold geometrics and a little Kate Spade preppy chic, resulted in a fun and vibrant design.

Woodland Warehouse Wedding at Union/Pine

July 17, 2015 | Junebug Weddings

Woodland-Warehouse-Wedding-at-Union-Pine (9 of 33)

After a romantic proposal in Paris, Jess and Sarah turned to a more natural setting for their wedding. The Union/Pine in Portland, Oregon was the perfect urban warehouse for this couple, with the help of amazing planner and designer S. Major, to create their incredible woodland fantasy wedding. Dressed in exposed wood, tall pillars, candles, and jars full of plants, this warehouse quickly became the cozy cabin the couple dreamed of. The Gemmers expertly captured one-of-a-kind images of Jess and Sarah on their special day.

The Couple:

Jess and Sarah

The Wedding:

Union/Pine, Portland, Oregon

The Inspiration:

I wanted to create a woodland fantasy with some urban touches (because we were in a warehouse!). There was something somewhat playful about the decor. It ended up feeling quite nostalgic and it told a story. I also insisted on making all of the decor (except the flowers!) myself. In terms of fashion, I just kind of went for it. My headpiece and dress were both huge and amazing, and I absolutely loved wearing them!

The Moments:

The last song of the night. All of our friends danced in a circle around us. At one point there was a big spinning high five situation. Just looking around the circle at all of the people we love the most… It was very special. Also, the DJ mixed our vows into the last song as a surprise. It felt magical.
