It might seem intimidating to design a bohemian chic wedding day, but for Caitlynne and Joseph, it was all about letting the garden setting speak for itself. “We kept everything minimal and natural, so we didn’t disrupt the natural beauty of our surroundings,” Caitlynne said. With the prettiest pink protea and dahlias filling her bouquet, she looked every bit the boho garden bride, and you can see even more from the day by Ether & Smith waiting in the gallery.
From the bride, Caitlynne… Neither of us grew up with a vision of the “perfect wedding day” in our minds, so we focused on creating the “perfect typical day.” A Friday evening spent with all of our closest friends and family, with lots of dancing, yummy burgers, and our favorite donuts! We both love the outdoors, so getting married outside just seemed natural.
As far as decor, we wanted to blend in, not stand out. So we let the garden speak for itself. We kept everything minimal and natural, so we didn’t disrupt the natural beauty of our surroundings. And I’m not so great at giving advice, we’re all so different! But we didn’t get caught up in what is expected out of a wedding, we focused on what we wanted out of a wedding.
