Stephanie Rager and Tristan Campbell are no strangers to an offbeat theme: This is a couple who first crossed paths at Emo Nite. The wedding planning began by focusing on their roots and passions. The theme? A splendid fusion of boho chic, Scottish tradition and the rebellious spirit of punk rock—a true reflection of their first meeting and of Tristan’s heritage. When it came to their sartorial choices, Stephanie dazzled in a gown that radiated boho elegance with just a hint of alternative flair; the gown was complemented by Tristan’s kilt, which proudly bore his family tartan. As the big day began, guests were greeted by the serene setting of an oceanside venue draped in dried florals and pampas grass, setting the stage for a moody, romantic ceremony. The couple exchanged vows that they had penned themselves, punctuating those vows with a symbolic handfasting, a pinky promise, and the sharing of a drink from a quaich, a double-handled cup, sealing their union in the Scottish tradition. The reception began with Tristan’s mother pinning a tartan on Stephanie, symbolizing her official welcome into their clan. The mother of the groom also contributed the delectable dessert bar to the evening’s festivities. The night was alive with heartfelt toasts and a feast that delighted every palate, followed by action on the dance floor, which erupted with energy as Stephanie and her dad boogied to “Thriller” and beckoned everyone to join in. Later on during the celebration, the newlyweds stole away for candid snapshots in their bespoke jackets, perfect emblems of their style.
Stephanie and Tristan's Scottish wedding featured a showcase of their unique taste and shared love of Punk Rock set in a foggy expanse.
