Lauren & Andrew’s Backyard July Wedding
There’s something incredibly special about getting married at home — and for Lauren and Andrew, that meant celebrating at her parents’ house in July 2021.
Their backyard transformed into a polished, joy-filled wedding setting, blending classic white details with warm wood tones and a dance floor that stayed full all night.
The Tent & Reception Design
For the reception, we installed a 40×60 QuickTrack frame tent — clean-lined and versatile, perfect for a backyard layout.
Inside, the design felt timeless and summery:
- Round tables for comfortable guest seating
- Classic white garden chairs for an airy, elegant look
- A rich cherry wood dance floor anchoring the space
- Bistro lighting overhead, creating that soft golden glow as the sun went down
The combination struck the perfect balance between formal and relaxed — elevated, but still completely at home.
The Ceremony
For the ceremony, rows of white folding chairs created a crisp, cohesive setting on the lawn. Simple, intentional, and focused exactly where it should be — on the vows.
Photos & Video
We have beautiful photos from the day, but what makes this one even more fun is the playful wedding video that captures the energy, the laughter, and the personality of Lauren and Andrew.
Seeing the tent filled with guests, the dance floor packed, and the couple completely in their element is a reminder of why backyard weddings are so meaningful.
