What if planning a wedding wasn’t about spending What if planning a wedding wasn’t about spending big, but about sharing what you already have? ⁠ ⁠ Emily and Michaela’s wedding is one of those rare, heartfelt days that remind us why community matters. Married in the community garden where they first met (and where Emily worked as a city farmer), these two walked to their ceremony gathering wildflowers as bouquets, surrounded by friends, music, and laughter.⁠ ⁠ Every guest played a part. There were homemade dishes piled high on long tables, friends behind the bar, mates stepping in as coordinators, musicians, and even the photographer. After the ceremony, their friends crafted a surprise vow for the couple, then hoisted them onto chairs and carried them into married life – literally.⁠ ⁠ Originally featured on Mindfully Wed, and now part of the Polka Dot Wedding family, this is one to warm your heart.
