Fairbanks, Alaska represents with this rustic wedding in Pioneer Park last July. Nick and Kalee kept things simple - the groomsmen wore T-shirts, and the bride went barefoot - but who needs tons of details in a setting as lovely as this? The couple got married under the pines on a beautifully overcast day, accompanied by accordion music, and standing on a river raft that Nick built just for the occasion.

Because, yes, the wedding took to the river after the ceremony - The Chena, to be exact. Even the drum set made it onto one of the DIY rafts and, from the looks of it, successfully stayed afloat until the reception.
