$\"\"$ <\/p>\n

Jess and Rob’s bohemian Scottish wedding looked like something out of a 1970s dream. Mismatched vintage furniture, rich earthy tones, and a relaxed, living-room atmosphere that felt more like a gathering of friends than a formal affair. Inspired by the free-spirited energy of Laurel Canyon, they set out to create a celebration that felt nostalgic, handmade, and beautifully imperfect.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was a <\/span>vision<\/span><\/a> rooted in who they are as a couple. The two Scots first met in the French Alps during the 2016 ski season. He was training to be an instructor, she was on a gap year. And what began as a fleeting winter romance slowly became something lasting. Years of traveling between France and Scotland eventually gave way to a more grounded life together, and after attending a friend’s wedding, they realized they wanted to host a party of their own. One filled with music, warmth, and personality.<\/span><\/p>\n

Turning Vintage Inspiration Into a Modern-Day Celebration<\/span><\/h2>\n
Jess and Rob’s vision was crystal clear: a bohemian Scottish wedding that looked like you’d stepped into a 1970s Laurel Canyon living room. “We wanted the <\/span>decor<\/span><\/a> and furniture to feel cobbled together and mismatched, rather than polished and precise,” Jess said. They pulled inspiration from ’60s and ’70s patterns, <\/span>Pinterest<\/span><\/a> boards, and weddings like Mimi Fariña’s in the ’60s—filled with Persian rugs, wooden furniture, and faded charm.<\/span><\/p>\n
They didn’t hire a planner but found their dream <\/span>coordinator<\/span><\/a> in Gemma Lavender of <\/span>Lavender Blue<\/span><\/a>. “She took so much of the admin and logistics off our shoulders,” Jess shared. “It let us focus on making things look pretty!” From sourcing vintage doilies and lampshades to DIY macramé candle lanterns, Jess and her family poured months of love into every corner.<\/span><\/p>\n
