in partnership with 
THE BRIDE: Mukti, 26, a medical student
THE GROOM: Nat, 27, a physical therapy student
THE DATE: June 4
Mukti and Nat wanted to throw a simple, eco-friendly wedding without sacrificing any style. Luckily, the rustic, locally sourced flowers and charming DIY details fit right in with their garden-party theme.
The Decor
For Mukti and Nat's ring exchange ceremony, floral arrangements attached to shepherd's hooks created an altar space.
The Bridesmaid Dresses
Instead of having a formal bridal party, Mukti just asked close female friends and family to wear their own spring-colored dresses that would look great together in photos.
The Boutonniere
Dried wheat and lavender tied together with twine decorated Nat's lapel for a simple, earthy look.
The Centerpieces
Local, seasonal flowers arranged loosely in a mix of vases and jars made for environmentally friendly and pretty table decor.
The Seating Chart
Nat made cards listing the guests' names and table numbers, and planted them into potted dahlias.
