About Venturing Vows
One of the best things you can do for your elopement or intimate wedding is rent an adorable vacation rental. That’s exactly what these two did when they rented an A-frame cabin in Washington State for their intimate wedding. It gave them a perfect backdrop for photos plus a space to hang out with their loved ones. It doesn’t take much time on a vacation rental sight to see there’s all sorts of incredible gems like this.
It’s very important to ask the permission of the host before you host no matter the size of the event or what activities you plan to hold there. You should ask permission even if it’s as simple as getting ready photos before spending the rest of the day elsewhere.

Having a good backdrop for getting ready photos can make all the difference! When you’re trying to pick what vacation rental you’ll use, keep an eye out for lighting, whether there’s enough space for you and your partner to avoid seeing each other prior to the first look, how many windows are in the space, and whether the outdoor spaces are a nice backdrop.
First looks are so much simpler when you have a nice vacation rental background. Instead of trying to get to a secondary location while hiding from each other, you can easily coordinate to not see each other and then travel together to your next destination.
