All of 2020 weddings have been so incredibly special and personal, all planned under difficult circumstances, all absolutely stunning and worth mentioning. Today I’m showing you one of those Covid weddings where the couple had to push their original April date to August and get married at home.

Cutting down your guest list, having no music or first dance, no venue of choice is all incredibly upsetting to think about but I want you to know it won’t take away from your day.

No matter how casual and informal your day is going to be, people should know what’s happening and where.
