Lovers of urban, eclectic weddings—unite! We’re positively obsessed with Megan and Taylor’s laid-back, dinner party style wedding at The Bachelor Farmer. From Megan being total bride babe goals (she did her own her) to the couple’s handcrafted reception playlist that got everyone on the dance floor, we can’t get over the intention behind every decision made for this day. Eclectic Elegance Florals helped the couple coordinate all the little details, as well as create the fabulous, modern arrangements and bouquets with orchids, anthurium, reflexed roses, and just a hint of greenery. If you love a good mix of creative and in-the-moment photos, you’re going to love every image Quinn Oberlander beautifully captured of this sweet day in Minneapolis!
We heard that you can strengthen your memories of a day by wearing a new fragrance. We decided ‘what the hell’ and each found a new scent for our wedding day, and another for our honeymoon. It’s true! Every time we wear those scents now, we get all the feels from our wedding day.
I wanted to be comfortable and, most importantly, feel like myself. I found the perfect simple Alexandra Grecco dress (with a slit!) at A&Be in Minneapolis. Adding the overlay from a different designer (Rue de Seine) made me feel like I was wearing a totally unique dress. I rarely wear my hair up, so after practicing a few times, I decided to do my hair myself! Taylor’s suit was put together and customized at Atmosfere. Adding sleek black shoes and a matte black tie clip were the perfect balance to the patterned suit and textured tie.
I was really nervous leading up to the ceremony; it hit me that everything we had been planning for months was about to ACTUALLY HAPPEN. The second I stepped into the ceremony room and saw Taylor and all of our friends and family, every bit of that nervousness vanished and all I felt was 100% love.
This might sound over the top, but before any other planning, I put together a color palette in Photoshop. Our venue, colorful as it was, begged to be complimented by more than pastels or simple greenery. Our color palette consisted of nine colors to fit the space and season and was a helpful reference when choosing dresses, suits, and florals. Our florist, Terra, made the MOST BEAUTIFUL modern arrangements and bouquets with orchids, anthurium, reflexed roses, and just a hint of greenery. We kept the decor to a minimum because the venue already had a ton of personality. The only decor items we purchased were table number holders ($0.97 from Ikea!) and an empty journal to use as a guest book.
The staff at The Bachelor Farmer cared about creating an experience for our guests as much as we did. The level of service they provided, their attention to detail, and ability to accommodate in-the-moment changes blew us away.
Quinn Oberlander is freaking amazing. She did such a great job making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Being photographers ourselves, we found it important to choose a wedding photographer that would capture the day exactly how it felt, but still deliver some creative and non-traditional photos.
We wanted our wedding day to be laid back and feel like we were throwing a dinner party for our friends and family. Having a small guest list of 66 allowed us to consider restaurant spaces. Our top priorities were food, drinks, and a warm and intimate atmosphere. We also valued a location that we could revisit in the future. The Bachelor Farmer checked all of these boxes. We already knew The Bachelor Farmer made some of the best food and cocktails in Minneapolis, but seeing their second-floor event space made the decision a no-brainer. It spanned four uniquely-styled rooms – a hidden dining room, a cozy, wood paneled room with a fireplace, a bar room with colorful afghans covering the walls and ceiling, and an industrial space for the ceremony and dancing.
Eloping can be grand, adventurous, extraordinary, or simple—it all depends on you and your partner. What do you both love? What would make this day truly the best day ever? Eloping should focus on your love for each other and a day to express yourselves. If you’re scouring Pinterest and the web for ideas, we have got you covered. We’ve rounded up our favorites to ensure this day feels special.
Make A Day Out Of It
One of the perks of eloping is that you don’t have to worry about venue times or guests’ schedules, so you celebrate all day long. Consider what would make this day completely picturesque to you and your partner. Maybe it’s a long hike to the location of your dreams followed by a picnic. Or maybe it’s hopping from one location to the next because your elopement attire is too fabulous to only wear for a few hours.
First looks aren’t just for traditional weddings. This short, but sweet moment is a perfect addition to any elopement. It adds a bit of surprise and extra excitement to the day. While you two are getting ready separately, you can both focus on your vows and process the adventure you’re about to have. Bring some tissues and get ready to experience all the emotions.
Getting Ready Together
Okay, so maybe having a first look doesn’t sound appealing to you. That’s A-okay. Getting ready with your significant other can be both exhilarating and special, too. Plus, you’re not just getting ready for a date. You are getting ready for forever. Spend that time together drinking coffee—or champagne—while fixing your hair, or tying your shoes.
Write Your Own Vows
Personalized vows make any wedding extra special since the words are directly from the heart. This is a great way to share with the love you have for your partner and why today marks the beginning of your future together. You don’t have to follow a schedule, a scripture, or any tradition if it doesn’t match with what your heart says.
Junebug Tip:
Get cute vow books/journals and frame them. It’s a cute way to show off your promises and love to each other in your home.
Hire A Musician Or Band
Music can add extra oomph to your elopement that makes your day feel like a scene from a movie. Consider hiring a musician or a band that are able to play your favorite songs, and even your song. Whether you choose to slow dance after exchanging your vows, or have the band play from start to finish, this will add a live soundtrack to your day that you’ll cherish
Let’s say a musician or band isn’t in your budget or plan, you can still have a first dance in the streets of NYC or inside your Airbnb. There’s something special about seeing couples dancing, even if the music is coming out of their phone’s speakers. Wherever your elopement takes you, this little sentimental moment will make for an unforgettable memory.
Change Your Outfit
This day happens once, so go all out. Don’t be afraid to change outfits—slip into something more comfortable or completely different. If you’re moving from one location to the other, outfit changes can help you feel like the parts of the day are each their own.
Whether you stay in all white, change to pajamas, or switch into activity-specific attire, this day is all about you two. If you’re not sure what your second, or third, outfit should be, there are wedding dresses and jumpsuits that’ll take you from day to night.
When you’re thinking about the location of your elopement, go for a grand backdrop, like a National Park or Paris, or keep it simple and find an Airbnb nearby. Your location reflects what you and your partner will find special. Eloping opens doors to unbelievable wedding locations and you can choose to say “I do” almost anywhere your heart desires.
Junebug Tip:
If you choose to stay home, or elope in the backyard, buy flowers and decorations to make it feel extra special. Try these Amazon decorations for a backyard ceremony.
Bring Your Loved Ones: Micro Wedding Versus Elopement
Elopements don’t have to just be the two—or three, don’t forget your photographer—of you. Invite a few loved ones, like family, friends, or even fur babies. This unique wedding style offers plenty of ways to involve them. Share the happiness of your day with all the people who mean the most to you. Keep in mind, the difference between a micro wedding and an elopement is actually not much of a difference at all.
If your loved ones can’t be there in person, invite them to attend as virtual wedding guests or have them write letters to read during your ceremony.
Literally Tie The Knot
The saying “tie the knot” comes from an Irish tradition where the couple getting married literally tie their hands together with ribbon as a symbol of their union. Each ribbon can be made of cloth of sentimental meaning to you. If you brought family or friends, they can bring a piece of cord, cloth, or ribbon and they can help you tie the knot. So, grab some ribbon or cut up some concert tees and actually tie the knot.
Who says you have to take photos immediately after the ceremony? No one! Pop the bubbly, kick your shoes off, and eat the cake. There are no rules when it comes to your celebration, so do whatever you want—in whatever order you want. Let your happiness be your guide. Your photographer will capture the happiness regardless of the order of your schedule.
Cake, Cake, And More Cake
Yes, cake. Bring on the sweet treats. Instead of worrying about getting enough dessert for your guests, you can now have the wedding cake and eat it too. Because it might be a small cake, you can add extra pretty designs, or whatever flavors you want without breaking the bank.
Add A Little Bit Of Spice
A three or four-course meal after saying I do can spice up your elopement. Splurge a little and hire a chef to prepare an extravagant meal. If you’re outdoors, make it picnic style—there is something magical about a picnic with gorgeous scenery that feels so idyllic.
Junebug Tip:
Make your picnics more cozy with faux candles and a small table. We’ve got cozy elopement picnic ideas that’ll help inspire you.
Ride off into the sunset in style. If you ever dreamed of being whisked away in a retro car or a Lamborghini, this is the time to make it happen. It’ll make for great memories and provide some pretty sweet photos too.
Spontaneity Is Key
When in doubt, just do it! Eloping in the city? Stop at your favorite restaurant and snag a bite in your elopement attire. Headed to a lake? Bring your paddleboards. Keeping things spontaneous and whimsical will make your day fun in the moment and fabulous for memories. So, whatever you’re feeling, just do it.
1, 2, 3…Surprise!
Speaking of spontaneous, a little unexpected surprise—whether it’s sentimental or just for fun—is always a good idea. Planning a surprise for your partner can be a cute way to show your love for them, and your elopement day makes it even better. Whether you sing them a song, create a photo album of your relationship, or name a star after them, seeing your surprise unfold is the cherry on top.
