I don’t know how you feel but rain can be romantic. Maybe that’s just the PNW girl in me. I know that rain can also be incredibly inconvenient, especially for a planned outdoor wedding. It’s also inconvenient and tragic when it floods towns causing tons of damage. Not only did it rain on Rita and Ryan’s big day and we are talking DOWN POUR ALL DAY RAIN, but they had a last minute change of venue because their original venue was damaged by a flood in February. That flood made Guerneville temporarily into an island. Sadly, the damage wasn’t going to be repaired by their wedding day.   Guerneville is special to these two. Ryan (and Mowgli!) surprised Rita with a trip there after graduate school. This is also when Ryan proposed while they were on a hike.   I’m sure it was disappointing to move their wedding somewhere else but Campovida ended up being such a gorgeous alternative!  They had so many fun details symbolizing their relationship. They chose a “camping theme” as they love spending time outdoors. The table numbers were named for each year they were together (10!) They commissioned a logo and cake topper which included their beloved dog Mowgli. Ryan’s dad officiated the ceremony and told their story in a beautiful but entertaining way!  One of the most unique aspects of their wedding, besides rain in California, was the GoPro they had on Mowgli filming the wedding from his point of view! I begged for a copy of the footage because I knew it was going to be priceless and fun to add to their edit.   Meet Rita + Ryan!

A simple wedding can be held anywhere but we suggest using the same venue for both ceremony and reception. You can also look into all-inclusive venues that will take care of food, décor, photographer, alcohol, staff, guest accommodations and more. What could be simpler?

Consider mismatched wedding party dresses, and brides may want a gown with clean lines or even a tea-length dress.

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

A simple wedding sticks to the basics, doesn't go crazy on décor and keeps the guest list minimal. The venue should be somewhere that will look beautiful as is or with only a few extra touches or will require only a little DIY effort.

At a simple wedding, be very particular with your guest list. You really only need to invite your "A-list," aka your immediate families and closest friends. It will help your budget and less guests means more face time with each person. Consider a shorter timeline—this will help your budget and keep the celebration from feeling too formal. And only focus on the most important details, there's no need to calligraphed signage at a simple wedding!

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