Having a picnic themed wedding reception is a unique and incredibly fun way of celebrating your special day especially in the Summer.
What's great about this is that you can custom it to any way you and your partner want and really include your personality and tastes whether it's with benches, hampers, rustic decor and even a pie instead of a cake!
Your guests will definitely love this rather unusual idea and we know they'll have an amazing time, but more importantly so will you ...

We are proud to feature Tamara Jaros Photography this week. Brittany and Austin's wedding looks absolutely amazing. We love their summer colour theme. The flowergirl and pageboys are so very cute. This wedding is full of laughter and the love between the couple is shown throughout these fantastic photos.
We picked only a few from the portfolio, but Tamara shows the wedding in storyboard fashion. She must take photos every second, as she captures literally every moment of a couple's wedding.
