Fall Camping Elopement Inspiration

camping elopement shoot

When the leaves are starting to change and fall is in the air, but you don’t quiteeee want to say goodbye to summer, what do you do? Have a wedding at a good ole’ fashioned summer camp, of course! said the team behind today’s inspiring styled shoot – photographers, Sarah + Loretta of Pie Shoppe and the stylists at Ojai’s Summer Camp. With the planning + design help of Occasions by C and C and rustic florals by Belle of the Ball Designs, they created a setting that’s oh-so sweet + perfect for fall. Sarah says:

We thought that saying “I do” in this intimate and woodsy environment would be perfect for a couple who loves the outdoors! Surrounded by trees, we were sure to place binoculars and bird watching books at the reception tables, so guests can enjoy the wildlife around them. We also had a few special DIY projects to tie together this theme, including gourmet s’mores bar right by the campfire ring and miniature fire starting kits for the guests to take home with them.
