One sentence sum up of the wedding vibe: It was a fun, relaxed, festive, “go with the flow” type of day; we got to play dress up and so did our guests!

Other cool stuff we should know about: Our wedding ceremony cost $5 including venue, musicians, and officiant (they even offered us a photographer, but we already had one). I paid for our wedding and bought a Rivertown Revival hat with a $20 bill! They even announced our wedding on the main stage after we got married we were the first couple to ever get married at the RR and there was an article about us and the festival in the Press Democrat the next day. We encouraged our guests to wear costumes, or at least hats—and they did! Also, random people witnessed our ceremony because it is open to the public. I got a lot of hugs from strangers and found pics of our wedding on lots of different facebook pages!
Favorite thing about the wedding: Our outfits.
