Autumn Woodland Wedding: Natalie + Mark
by Jen via Real Weddings | Green Wedding Shoes Wedding Blog | Wedding ...
Natalie
+ Mark are talented wedding filmmakers (you may recognize them from
their self-made engagement video we featured!) with super rad taste, so
when it came time to plan their colorful Pennsylvania farm wedding, they
created a celebration filled with unique mid-century details + lots of
music-inspired design elements. I can’t wait for you to see the bright,
mismatched bridesmaid’s dresses + the fun, retro-style place settings! I
just love the whole vibe these two created. Here’s more from Natalie:
Mark
and I both really appreciate the aesthetic and vibes of the mid-century
era but were born in the 80s in the woods and farmlands of
Pennsylvania. In planning the style of our wedding day, we wanted to
meld our love of nature (especially fall) and our fondness of the 50s
& 60s. Music was a big influencer in a lot of our design elements,
too, because our musical backgrounds – I’m a drummer, Mark’s a guitarist
– have created deep roots in our relationship. Keeping our day as
simple and carefree as possible for all of our near and dear friends and
family was a huge determining factor in planning a lot of aspects of
our wedding weekend. When we stumbled upon Sweetwater Farm, we knew in
an instant it was the perfect place for us to stay and celebrate the
weekend away.
Big thanks to With Love & Embers for sending this beautiful wedding our way + congratulations to Natalie + Mark!

Advice For Other Couples
1.
You should always stay true to what they really want. It’s your wedding
and no one else’s – don’t worry about trends, or looking cool.
2.
You can never have it all perfectly planned; there will always be last
minute changes. Take it with a smile, kiss your partner and thank God
for being blessed with someone to share your life with.
Many congratulations Lucia and João!
