With a vintage Vokswagen camper as its backdrop, this picnic wedding truly brings its 70s-inspired theme to life. The backyard ceremony celebrated the union between Nicole and Juan and was spotlighted on budget-friendly wedding blog Bespoke Bride.

This [unique wedding ceremony](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unique-wedding-venues) was inspired by the groom's love of classic rock and roll and embodied an eccentric and approachable air. With details like a [VW](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porsche-x-vw-renndienst-idbuzz-bus) camper cake, succulent table settings and suitcase card stations, this nostalgic wedding ceremony was an authentic reflection of a bride and groom's personalities.

Juan who is a musician donned an all-white suit to match his bride while the couple's bridal party opted for pink dresses and chevron accessories. Rejecting tradition, this Millennial wedding theme celebrates a couple's niche interests while referencing iconic rock and roll imagery.
