After 3 years, Justin and Kristen decided to start their next adventure together. In early 2019, Justin decided to pursue his dream of becoming a commercial airline pilot. Knowing they wanted to get married, they did things a bit backwards. They decided to set a date and to let the proposal happen naturally. Little did they realize that with the wedding happening in Kristen's small hometown, word spread quickly. Once they requested a date and met with the priest, the congratulations messages for their engagement began. They quickly explained their plan and welcomed the fun story to come.  The following Easter, Justin safety-pinned a ring in his pocket and they set out for a wooded run through Virginia Beach to a small waterfront cove where he proposed. As soon as Kristen said yes, the rapid planning began for a date only 6 short months away. With the help of family and friends, planning flew by with ease.

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.

I can’t exactly remember why I picked up a camera for the first time. Maybe part of me was afraid of being forgotten, while another part of me was afraid of forgetting. With high school coming to a close, I realized that I was ending this huge chapter of my life and entering a new one. One with new faces, new fears, new hopes, new dreams. The problem was I had no way of holding on to it.So in college I quickly became the guy who always had a camera on him, recording random group karaoke sessions in our one friend’s crappy apartments, spur-of-the-moment weekday bar crawls none of us could actually afford, and late-night coffee-induced study sessions hours before an exam (mind you, this was before everyone had an iPhone).Every semester I’d edit a video showing just what it was like to be with each of these friends at this point in my life. Raw, authentic moments put into a time capsule I can return to whenever I want to reflect. To this day, I still feel like I’m doing the same thing. - Justin-Paul
