Offbeat Bride | Io's gothy wedding

If your tastes tend toward the gothy, film noir, and slightly victorian, your head may explode from io's southern gothic wedding photos. I'm especially pleased with her little wedding hat, the groom's striking outfit, and the bat cake. (Thanks, Kat!)

Designed the dress herself, did her own makeup…wow. I'm impressed. That gown is gorgeous, and her hair and makeup is perfect. Beautiful wedding!

I keep hoping for a bride with a sweet little hat like that! The details on her dress were so pretty. I wish I could have been the one working the camera at that event. Eye candy! YUM!

Her dress makeup and venue are so beautiful! I love that her dress was light pink!
The only thing I dont like are all of those fish-eye-lens shots, but thankfully they are not all like that

She is gorgeous! What an amazing looking event. Those fish eye shots are bit much though.

Wow! Thanks ladies, and how awesome to be featured here. Though, I'll admit, I'm a bit of a sucker for the fisheye since it shows off a lot of stuff (buildings, crowds) at once.
I only wish I'd found the book during my 7-month engagement (after 8.5 years together, we were eager), it probably would have given me even better ideas and perhaps saved a little stress while planning a wedding and finishing my last semester of college (I graduated the day before the wedding).
That said, good luck on wedding plans for the rest of you!

You have no idea how long I have been web-searching for SOMEONE with similar taste to mine when it comes to weddings. Your black beaded swag on the corset was breathtaking and my veil looks a lot like yours.

You are a vision. Thanks for posting!

That was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen… I wish with all my heart there was a venue like that where I live. That's the perfect style my fiance want for our wedding and I'm even thinking about a starkers wedding dress as well. But that was amazing and beautiful and I'm just in awe…

She also takes amazing pictures
