If you are a fan of the works of Wes Anderson, ie, Moonrise Kingdom, The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Fantastic Mr. Fox, then you may have said to yourself, I wish I could live in a world like this... Welcome to your perfect wedding day theme!
Keep scrolling to see just what it is that makes this camping style wedding so very Wes Anderson-y. And you can see every last bit of this lovely shoot in our full gallery thanks to the photography talents of Nikk Nguyen Photo.
