Beautiful {DIY} Outdoor Wedding Chapel

One of my favorite things about backyard weddings are the cozy + intimate feel that is given to the entire day and event. It's sort of like giving all your guests a perfect front row seat to one of the most important days of your life. If having a non-formal wedding ceremony is your style, you might think about tying the knot in your own backyard!

To help inspire, I wanted to share this beautiful outdoor ceremony that I found on one the fabulous Wedding Rumors blog. This couple was married in the bride's backyard in an outdoor wedding chapel built by the bride's brother! Honestly, this set-up and background looks way more dashing than a lot of wedding venues that I've visited in the past. And a LOT less cheaper. Enjoy!

You know walking up that this wedding is going to be one to remember.

Simple ambiance...

... is the perfect backdrop for such a momentous event.

The vintage accessories are a subtle and divine choice.

Magnifico! Casual atmosphere, gentle design and pure romance are three things that will always make for a perfect ceremony. Just ask this couple.
