Camp Inspired Wedding by Orchard Cove, II

July 7th. 2009 by Abby Larson | Filed Under | 13 comments

I heart this wedding. I heart it so much that it just might have sky rocketed up to my very favorite wedding thanks to it’s complete, unabashed charm. The amazing, amazing, amazing Amanda Herzberger shot the photographs that have completely brought this day to life…making me SO wish that I was there, so wish that I was a part of this incredible celebration.

Here are a few little tidbits for you to fall in love with…first off, that GORGEOUS Pronovias dress. The bride had the train trimmed off and had her tailor (French Bridals in Beverly, MA) create the flower out of the remnant. As for the decor, Rachel and Will wanted a simple, woodsy, relaxed affair.

From Rachel…

The chapel was at the camp that my father went to as a kid and where our family vacationed for my whole childhood. I remember watching the late summer weddings from the back of the chapel with my sister when we were very small. It felt like a full circle to be standing up front next to Will with our friend’s children whispering in the back just like I did many years ago.

Our favorite part of the wedding was when our friends began playing & singing Here Comes the Sun as we walked out of the chapel.

My one piece of advice…Don’t go crazy with the details. Select a few that you are passionate about and have fun focusing on those. Don’t overschedule your day. Give yourself time to enjoy being surrounded by your friends and family.

  8. Carie - during the ceremony there was 5 minutes of reflection for guests to write, doodle, draw cartoons, or just think about Rachel & Will - it was a really nice touch and one I hadn't seen before.
