Whatever comes to mind whenever you Google boho inspired wedding, we can guarantee Esther and Eric Liang had it on their big day and it will leave you speechless! When the pair met back in college they both knew it was love at first sight. While dating in college is a bit simpler – library and bubble tea dates – this couple’s love for each other has grown every day since they met. 

Their big day took place outside at The Nest At Ruth Farms on a perfect September day, and it was nothing but stunning. From the aisle to their seating arrangement and tablescapes, Posh Couture Rentals took their love for the outdoors and bohemian style to the next level. The obsession with this wedding doesn’t stop with the decor, the earthy florals created by R. Love Floral brought everything together on this beautiful day. 

The party kept going during the reception with bartending by HD Liquid Catering, and the guests were absolutely shocked by the surprise the bride and groom had for them. For weeks before their wedding, Esther and Eric practiced and planned a dance for their guests – a seriously special moment. Thinking about planning a boho inspired wedding?

From the bride on her favorite wedding memory: “My favorite part of the wedding was the dance that we spent weeks preparing for. It definitely wowed the audience!” 

Romance is in the air – and once you see these stunning pictures of Ashley Brooke and Ryan Reed’s modern affair, you’ll be pinning them to your Pinterest board in no time! After 10 years of being together and two years of planning, this couple tied the knot at The Olana – and it was nothing short of amazing! Before their marriage, the two met at a pool party through some mutual friends (and some persistence from Ryan), and they have been inseparable ever since.

After a thoughtful proposal and time to take in their engagement, they started planning, and this couple learned early on that the process of planning doesn’t have to be stressful, it can be so much fun! Their romance is perfectly illustrated throughout their entire modern wedding, starting with their florals from Lush Couture Florals. Lining the aisle, in the altar and everywhere you looked during their wedding, these florals had the perfect touch of greenery to make them stand out, and we can’t get enough! The florals didn’t end there either – Sugar Bee Sweets Bakery created such an amazing cake with detailed flowers, it almost stole the show from the bride and groom!

From the bride on her favorite memory of the day: “This might sound crazy, but I think the car ride back to our hotel was my favorite part. We got in the car, closed the door, and just started laughing because we couldn’t believe after two years of planning and anxiously waiting, that it finally happened!”

Every bride should make some version of a mood board before planning their wedding. Mood boards (also know as inspiration boards or vision boards) involve compiling several visuals into a collage to create an evident theme. They are a great way to determine the vibe your wedding will embody and help you easily communicate your vision to those styling your event. Pinning down the mood and tone of your wedding provides you and your wedding planner with a clear direction for planning, making it much easier to decide on flowers, dresses, decor, etc. Creating a mood board might seem intimidating, but we’ve broken it down into 5 simple steps!

Since You Got Married Out of State, Did You Feel It Was Important to Have a Wedding Planner?

“I got married in Arizona, so I wasn’t very familiar with the vendors or venues. My wedding planner really helped me get my vendor team pulled together and helped me make those connections, so I was really grateful in that regard.”

What Was the Easiest Thing to Accomplish Planning Your Wedding From Afar?

“The easiest thing was probably the mentality of not having to stress about the wedding planning process because I wasn’t physically there to be really hands-on. I was able to go about my day-to-day life during the week and dedicate weekends to going home and really putting my energy and effort into planning. Coming back home and almost being removed from it and not having to worry or stress because there’s only so much you can do from a distance was probably the best thing.”

What Was the Most Difficult Thing to Accomplish Planning Your Wedding From Afar?

“The most difficult part is the fact that you aren’t there, so you can’t really be as hands-on as you might like. It’s a lot of communicating via email and phone. If you’re more of an in-person interaction type of person and want to see things like your invitations in print and what they look and feel like, you have to really dedicate time to going home and setting up those meetings, either cramming them all into one weekend or spreading them out over a few.”

Any Advice for Couples Planning From Afar?

“My advice to couples planning from afar is to really just enjoy the experience and make weekend trips to where you will be getting married. Have fun with it and make it a vacation, but also spend the time to get those in-person meetings in to feel like you’re getting the full experience.”

Working in an industry where they’re in-the-know on all things weddings has its advantages when it comes to planning the big day. In this video, Wedlink Media’s Office Manager, Madison, tells all about planning a backyard wedding. She gives her insight into the extra logistics required to pull off a flawless event at your own home.

Backyard weddings can be special when the venue is a significant place for the couple. Madison and her high school sweetheart Chase chose the backyard of her childhood home because of the sentimental value it holds for them. While Madison thought choosing a backyard venue would make the planning process a breeze because she would be able to control everything, this wasn’t exactly the case. At-home weddings bring up many logistical questions brides might not typically think about. Finding accommodations for the catering team and bringing in lighting were some areas that Madison had to navigate before her big day. Planning a backyard wedding can be a bigger production than it appears from the outside, but in the end, any bride who chooses a backyard as their venue will be sure to have a magical event to remember.

Your wedding is the perfect time to be a little selfish. Taking care of your mind and body is the best way to ensure that you’ll feel as beautiful as you look on the day of your wedding. Every bride is different, which means every beauty routine will look different. Starting a new workout routine or trying new exercises are great habits to form as you step into this new season of life.

Be confident that you know yourself best — deciding what beauty prepping you should do before the big day is ultimately your decision. If taking care of yourself looks like scheduling multiple facials up until your wedding, then go for it! Another tip is to meet with your wedding day makeup artist to see which products you should start or stop using as the big day approaches. Beauty prepping can also happen mentally. One example is doing hot yoga on the morning of your wedding day to get in a good headspace, which could absolutely be the most important aspect of your beauty routine.

Ultimately, your wedding beauty prep should consist of whatever makes you feel most special and confident!
