Stunning Scotland Hiking Elopement In Full Wedding Outfits

July 24, 2021 | riley

A rainy ceremony in the heart of the Isle of Skye and a hike in glamorous wedding attire-what an adventurous and romantic way to tie the knot! After being together for ten years, Becca and Matt’s Scotland hiking elopement came together after deciding they wanted a laid-back, stress-free day in a place they had never been before.

From a tear-filled ceremony with handwritten vows to photos with Scotland’s lush landscape, Junebug members The Ferros beautifully captured the intimate moments of the day. One look at these photos and you’ll be booking your plane tickets and jet-setting off to a far away destination for your own “I do’s.”

The Couple:

Becca and Matt

The Wedding:

Isle of Skye, Scotland

Small DIY Touches From The Bride

I designed, calligraphed, and printed our entire wedding announcement suite in a week! Being a designer myself I kept having the hardest time deciding what to do for our announcement, so once it came to me I knew I had to work fast before I changed my mind.

Easy-Going Wedding Vibes

We had been together ten years when we decided to elope, so in a lot of ways, the entire process felt very laid back for us. Neither of us are the kind who had ever thought about a big wedding, so eloping was perfect. We wanted the vibe of our day to reflect that and we did a pretty great job of it. We both purchased clothes off the rack, the shoes we wore were years old, and the only wedding vendor we hired were our photographers, The Ferros. One of my best friends ordered me a veil as a gift at the very last minute, and I’m so glad I had it! Even though our day was so laid back and non-traditional, there will never be another day in my life I can wear a wedding veil so it was a really lovely touch.

Why A Scotland Hiking Elopement

Since we knew it would only be the two of us, we really wanted a location that would be so memorable we could never forget it. Scotland was hands down the perfect choice, and the Isle of Skye is so breathtaking that even thinking about it now almost brings me to tears. It’s so gorgeous.

Junebug Tip: Who says dried palms and pampas grass can only be used for beach weddings? When paired with other bold, moody florals and an autumnal color palette, they are perfect additions to any fall wedding floral installation.

Junebug Tip: If your wedding has a boho theme, tie in natural elements to your floral installations such as macrame and jute. This looks especially stunning in outdoor spaces such as a forest or garden.

Things are looking a little different in 2021—thankfully. Because of travel limitations and changes in couples’ wedding priorities, more couples are opting for backyard weddings. We’re here for any celebrations of love. With so many weddings at home, many guests are left wondering what to wear to these events. To help you save time and stress less, we’ve compiled a list of backyard wedding guest outfits for everyone. 

Before we begin, we wanted to share a few Junebug outfit tips for you: 

  • Make sure you are following the dress code of the wedding. If the invites include words like black tie, formal, or semi-formal be sure to stick to those 
  • Be sure to wear sunscreen and pack a mini bottle to reapply as needed

Dresses As Backyard Wedding Guest Outfits

Whether it’s spring or summer, dresses are always a great option to stay cool and look great! These options look great at any backyard wedding. Keep in mind that if you’re attending a wedding in a warm climate you’ll want to opt for the cotton and linen options.

Jumpsuits Made for Backyard Wedding Ceremonies

Dresses aren’t for everyone. Any jumpsuit or romper works great for backyard weddings, especially if you plan on playing any lawn games or hitting the dance floor. These jumpsuits range in formality and are all comfortable for a long ceremony.

Short-Sleeve Collared Shirts 

You can’t go wrong with a collared shirt and a good pair of pants. Regardless of the season, this combo will keep you cool and have you looking fabulous for any backyard wedding. 

Junebug Tip: 

Try a French tuck (yes, just like Tan France always suggests). It’s a great way to look polished without having to tuck in your shirt all the way.

The Perfect Pants

To pair perfectly with the collared shirts above, these cotton and linen pants are perfect for backyard weddings. By sticking with cotton and linen pants, you’ll stay more comfortable during the day, especially for spring and summer weddings.   

Shop these pants here.

Grass-Approved Shoes

If you’ve been invited to a backyard wedding, odds are you’re going to walk on grass or uneven ground. Instead of wearing your brand new white shoes or your sky-high heels, try these options. We promise that you and your feet will be much happier. 

If you really want to wear a heel, opt for wedges, or low heels. Our favorite wedges are below, but you can also shop these low-heel options—perfect for backyards of any kind.

 

Finding the perfect backyard wedding guest outfit is now a breeze! You can focus on finding the happy couple a wedding gift. If they don’t have a registry to go off of don’t stress! Check out these Amazon wedding registry ideas to find the perfect gift—especially if you need to use that two-day shipping.
