Rustic Cave Nuptuals

Marie-Gael and Michael's Wedding Was DIY, at Dawn, in a Forest

I love a good alterna-wedding. Nothing says ‘I am who I am’ more than adding your own personality to something. Marie-Gael and Michael’s wedding certainly had all of this, and so much more.

Considering they only spent $100 on the actual ceremony and reception, and it was held in a cave at dawn, in the middle of nowhere, the cynic in me is surprised anyone actually showed up. But it looks beautiful, and part of me is totally inspired by Marie-Gael and Michael’s wedding.
