t was the beginning of 2014, when Ricky and Hana met at Watermans' Volcom Premier of "True to This". One of Hana's bridesmaids, Gabby, had known Ricky since high school and she introduced them to each other.   Seconds after meeting, Ricky fumbled and knocked a drink off the counter, soaking Hana's shoes. But, they laughed it off, and Ricky chatted up Hana and her friends for the rest of the night.   The next day, Ricky asked Hana's girlfriends to lunch with him where he charmed them with his jokes. The girls came back from lunch that day to tell Hana just how cute and funny he was, and how perfect they would be together. A couple of hours later, Ricky reached out to Hana and asked her on their first date.   On their first date, Ricky decided to show Hana his hometown. He took her to Royal Palms Beach before dinner at The San Pedro Brewing Company where he found the way to her heart... Gaffey Fries. It was love at first bite, and all these years later, they're still #truetothis.

Casual weddings are most often a style used in backyard weddings, but we also see it at beach or tented weddings. For the attire, brides may want to wear a tea-length dress or jumpsuit. Grooms should stick to lighter shades, like tan, and toss the jacket.

Consider serving drinks prior to the ceremony to get your guests in a party mood!

Need vendors for your casual wedding? These pros specialize in this style.

A casual wedding is playful, fun and great for weddings with a smaller guest list. The ceremony is often outdoors or hosted in a backyard and we love the thought of using benches for the seating to really keeps the formality to a minimum. String lights are a must!

With a more informal celebration, you can really get creative with the menu and play with your décor. There's no need for china or chargers at a casual reception so have fun with the place settings, like a patterned or textured placemat. As for food, comfort food is a no-brainer. Try an elevated version like mini chicken and waffles or shooters of tomato soup with tiny grilled cheese bites on the side. We encourage you to consider family-style dining as opposed to a formal plated dinner.

These wedding videos will give you the inspiration for all your casual wedding, plus the vendors and brands who can make them happen.
