Going to the (Pop-Up) Chapel

We launched our Pop-Up Chapels concept in October 2023, working closely with KaraKara Blooms and an incredible vendor team. And we documented our launch with a photo shoot to show future couples what their Pop-Up Chapel experience can look like. Looks pretty f***ing fabulous, right?!

Five couples tested out our Pop-Up Chapel at Realm, and photographers Alex Medvick and McKenzie Bigliazzi expertly captured the most beautiful, authentic moments.

The food and drinks weren’t just instagrammable as f***, they were delicious, too. Our chapel couples enjoyed a rainbow of charcuterie from Wander & Graze, garden to glass cocktails from Wandering Wagon, and the most striking hot pink cake we’ve ever seen from Love, Emily.

Singer/songwriter John Brewster’s ethereal voice filled the dreamy space as he serenaded each of our couples’ first dance and ceremony (which were expertly officiated by our friend Tirzah at Nearlywed Coaching).

Using a combination of fresh and preserved flowers to keep our chapel as sustainable as possible, KaraKara Blooms set the mood with a floating hydrangea installation, whimsical tablescapes, hanging floral umbrellas, and a photo op literally dripping with blooms.
