When trying to find ways to make their small town wedding at Frontier Farwest Fishing Lodge stand apart, Naomi and Jacob tapped into their minimalist and natural styles to create a day that was truly unforgettable! Rather than a color palette, the bride used her favorite florals and tons of greenery to add pops of color and freshness. Then the couple added handmade wood tables/benches and antique pieces to round out the minimalist decor. In keeping with the laid-back feel, Naomi rocked an Alexandra Grecco dress with a greenery crown and king protea bouquet created by Larkspur Floral. We seriously can’t stop staring at all the romantic moments and dreamy details The Toths Photo & Film captured from this special day!

The Wedding:

Frontier Farwest Fishing Lodge, Smithers, British Columbia, Canada

The most important part of planning our wedding was that it was unique. We live in a small town and everything tends to be the same because there aren’t many resources. So, we really wanted to make our day stand apart.

The most memorable part of the day was the ceremony. We wrote our own vows and had the most amazing officiant! It was so well suited to us a couple.

I never thought I would be the girl to have a barn style wedding. It was a hidden gem, no one had really known anything about it. It was a 100-year-old barn that had been refurbished using all the original slats. It was so simple and beautiful. It was an instant yes!

We kept our decor simple but Jacob’s dad made all the tables and benches, and Jacob and I stained them. My mom and I did all the flowers — really, it was mostly my mom…that woman did it all! I also have some pretty special people with great taste and borrowed a lot of antiques for the decor.

I knew my wedding dress as soon as I saw it! It was so simple, and I felt like I was wearing pajamas. I felt like my look was all about the dress, and I wore some pretty simple jewelry that was Leah Alexandra, which just added perfectly. I wore a leafy crown over my hair that my lovely MOH made. I didn’t decide to wear it until the second I walked out the door, and I am so glad I did! As for shoes, they didn’t last long — I was running around in bare feet all night, aside from the ceremony.

Love the idea of a barn wedding with a twist? This shabby chic Virginia wedding at The Barn at Timber Creek took cues from the Italian countryside!
