Hayley and Seth are a very young couple who had a simple yet beautiful rustic country style wedding in the summer outdoors of Illinois. Their wedding was so full of handcraft details and creative, personal touches, proving that the only things you need for a perfect wedding are good friends and family under a blue summer sky.

Hayley’s wedding dress was a gorgeously beaded strapless, laced-back floor-length.

hand-painted signs and fresh wildflowers in mason jars are the perfect details for this laid-back summer wedding

The Dollar Dance! Each guest earns a chance to dance with the bride or groom with the admission of one dollar (or more).
In this wedding game, the girls would try to push down the bride (not really because come on, that hair and makeup took time!) while the guys would succeed in knocking down the groom.

there’s no cozier (or yummier) way to warm your guests’ heart than with a s’mores fire pit 🙂
