Laura and Daniel were married at the groom’s parent’s backyard in Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada on September 14. “We wanted our wedding to be relaxed and fun,” Laura said. The bride wore a sweetheart lace a-line wedding gown with a keyhole back, accessorized with an ivory sash and fingertip-length veil, while the groom kept it casual with a white button-up shirt, vest, dark-washed jeans, accessorized with no tie. Notice her cowboy boots? Bridesmaids wore mix ‘n’ matched short mint green and teal dresses and carried bouquets of roses, berries, eucalyptus seeds, and baby’s breath. Fun fact: All of the floral arrangements were created by Quik Pik Flowers, where Laura works. “I wanted the ceremony backdrop to be of the mountains and open field because those are two things that we really love being surrounded by,” she said. “All 165 of our guests were people we were so happy to be surrounded with.” Following, guests were directed to the tented reception through a pair of repurposed barn doors and escorted to their seats via cards on clothespins. In lieu of a traditional guest book, well wishes were written on pieces of paper and placed inside a metal watering can. Tables were decorated with white linens, burlap runners, mason jar centerpieces atop wooden slices, chalkboard table numbers, and family photos. “We had an open mic, which was very successful and brought out a lot of great improvisational speeches that were so heartwarming,” Laura said. Later on, the newlyweds performed a special dance to “Proud Mary.” And they got it on video too! See the full board here.
