Amber Gustafson is the designer behind one of my all time favorite Budget Friendly weddings that we’ve featured on SMP. She is known for her completely unique, personality driven approach to weddings and this one is no different. It’s rustic charm with elements of Eastern influence that celebrate the brides upbringing in a Hindu Community. It’s one of those weddings where little details are both gorgeous and completely surprising.

A few more last details from Amber…
Mallika’s father created an organic cold remedy from roots that he digs up and he created tinctures in little bottles that were given out as favors. Holly, of Holly Flora, created arrangements in vintage tea tins, mason jars, and vintage silver vases.

Thank you SO very much to Amber and all of the vendors that participated in this wedding. It was a lovely reflection of all things beautiful and we are thrilled to have featured it on SMP. Here is a vendor list for all of you!

Very Romantic. The details are beautiful!

There is something about lavender that just says wedding.....this is beautiful.
Wow!!! It looks just as beautiful in the pictures.
So so simple and gorgeous- budget weddings don't have to 'look' budget! Great post!
