So, we've already established how much we love Hawaii-based photographer Marina at Red Heart Photography, ya? Ho Brah, do yourselves a favor and click on the photo below to check out her newest, most ono, wedding exploits with offbeat couple Amy and Jesse...
This carnival-themed wedding pretty much had it all... tattooed wedding party, high rockabilly/circus fashion, adorable groomsmen in suspenders, blue hair, beautiful Hawaiian landscapes, two wedding dresses and bridal shoes that'll make you do a spit-take.
Need more convincing? Check out the bridal party's Dirty Dancing wedding entrance...
And NOW go over to Marina's blog to see part one, part two and part three of Amy and Jesse's wedding.
(Oh, and while you're looking at all these incredible photos, keep in mind that Marina was 8 1/2 months pregnant while shooting this!!! That's one hardcore Offbeat Mama for ya.)

What amazing pics. It looks as though it was a truly fab day. Gotta admit, I teared up a little at your pic of your partner waiting for you to come down the "aisle" – obviously true love!
Lisa said
Um wow. I am a firm believer in doing something spectacular at your wedding that makes its unforgettable. This entrance certainly accomplishes this. I would have loved to have seen this one in person!!

First off, thanks Megan for blogging this wedding!
Amy and Jesse are so in love and so genuine. I am glad so many people are enjoying their passion and creativity. This was a totally DIY, dry, Christian, vegan, punk rock wedding.
As for Amy's first dress, she told me she bought it online from China and she bought like 5 of them because they were so cheap. We are planning to shoot again after I have the baby in a more urban setting so the extra dresses will be used.
Jesse and groomsmen we wearing WahMakers. They looked SO handsome in these old-timey Western pants! http://www.culturedcowboy.com/wahmaker/pages/pant…
Thanks everyone for you love and support. I am about to pop over here (41 weeks pregnant!) and so happy to have this be my last wedding for a while.
See you on OffBeatMama!

If there is any way you could find out the name of the website or where she ordered her first dress please let me know. I have been looking for a dress like this everywhere. Thank you so much.
Lauren said
Marina, I was wondering if you knew anything more on buying dresses from China or had any insight? I love that idea, but did not know where to start.
Thanks!
xoxo,
lauren

Wow! They look so much in love. Beautiful photos. The brides hair is so unique, yet it still looks great. I wonder what she does with it on a normal day.

Glad to see all the positive comments on here, as some of the comments I have seen on this wedding on other places were kind of snarky.
Becky said
Everything about this wedding looks incredible. Everyone looks like they had so much fun, and the photographs are incredible. I love the similarities between the brilliantly colored Hawaiian background and the bride's insanely bright, gorgeous tattoos. The theme, the food, the decorations, gah! I'm in love with this whole event. Beautiful.

This is my favourite wedding I've ever seen online. I'm super-jealous that I'm not friends with these guys!
SarahFutureSailor'sWife said
Wow!! Wow!!! And more WOW!!!! Not only is it GORGEOUS (with a super attractive couple!), but it looks like so much FUN!!
I want my wedding to be like that! Everyone looks like they're having a blast! I've been to way too many dull weddings where everyone just sits around. I want crazy dancing, and running around, and people posing for their photo shoots!
