Did I mention that the Jim Henson Co. lot was built by Charlie Chaplin to serve as his production studio? I love this pic of the dress hanging up on a HUGE picture of Charlie in action.
I could write a whole post about JUST their centerpieces — each of them was a different movie/nerdy/pop-culture reference with corresponding photo of the two of them in character.
And of course they had custom bride and groom Muppets…
…Who are clearly as in love as they are.
Oh and what is that awesome fascinator on Suzanne's head you ask? BOOM…
POW!
And what Muppet wedding is complete without a Hoth wedding cake with the biggest AT-AT cake topper I've ever seen!?
And speaking of eating times…
They brought in the BEST that California has to offer — In & Out. Best wedding meal EVAR.
To see more photos with even MORE mind-splody awesome details AND a video of their muppets singing the Beatles, head over to my photography blog.

Berni said

Melissa said
I'm so excited, Megan's going to be my photographer for my pi-day wedding next year! Squee!!!!
Suzanne said
It's so awesome/weird to see pictures of my own wedding on OBB after having drooled over so much amazing wedding porn here over the past year and being inspired by so many other couples! Squee!
Major props to Megan for these beautiful photos, and for generally geeking out with us on the big day! We couldn't have asked for a better photography team.
Fun fact…that Gremlin is signed by Joe Dante, and was the first birthday present Luke ever got me. A mutual love of Gremlins 2 a happy marriage makes!

Okay, where did you get that beyond-awesome fascinator? Because I need it. I really do. (I'm a huge comic nerd and I have a passion for all those awesome sound effects words)
Suzanne said
Thanks! I had the fascinator custom made through the most incredible Etsy seller (she even tracked down the perfect blue veil):

Seriously, LOVE her fascinators and she was a joy to collaborate with!
Elle said
Thank you so very much!

When i saw that fascinator I knew it must have been one of hers, as i'm looking at doing something similar in red and black for my comic book/nintendo themed wedding

My brain just expolded from the awesomeness of this wedding!!!
Miss Didi said
I love that building–it was originally charlie chaplin's–I was there recently for a whiskey tasting, but would've never thought of a wedding there! Great venue choice, and I second the AWESOME fascinator! One of my best friends has a tattoo just like it
Most of all, I love that you managed to show that wacky/fun and simple/elegant aren't mutually exclusive!

Rad! Just rad!!

OMFG.
My friends used "Somebody's Getting Married!" as one of their songs during the ceremony, and I was literally bouncing in my chair because I EFFING LOVE the Muppets! Seriously, I adore them. I grew up on a hefty diet of Sesame Street, and I am totally and completely in love with Kermit the Frog.
Suzanne said
We worked lyrics from "Somebody's Getting Married" into our vows ("He'll make me happy each time I see him," etc.), Muppets Take Manhattan is far and away my favorite muppet movie!
Sue said
Dude. Dude. Dude. Duuuuuude. Whoah. So much awesomeness in one place my head don't work.

O.M.G. Tremendous awesomeness and I wanna see more!!!! COngratulations!
Lindsay said
This is how you know this is an incredible wedding – I showed the page to my fiance, and he laughed out loud and said "Can we just steal THEIR wedding??"
Jen said
This is probably my favorite wedding I've seen on OBB so far. AMAZING! The Muppets have a special place in the hearts of my fiancé and myself. I LOVE THIS!
Also, is that a Dolly Couture dress?
Suzanne said
Gosh, thanks!
The dress is Stephanie James Couture, highly recommended if you're into tea length dresses and/or colored crinolines.
Jen said
I am into both!
Thanks for sharing, and congrats on your AMAZING wedding.
Holly said
SO AMAZING! I would love to see each and every centerpiece too!
And may I just say, the picture with their muppets making out in the background same as they were…made me smile so hardcore!
Alicia said
PURE AMAZINGNESS
Nelle said
GAH!!!! LOVE! I interned at Jim Henson Studios the summer after I graduated from college and I've always dreamed of having a wedding/reception there. So happy to have seen somebody actually do it! It's a great location!
Cortney said
Three cheers for f***ing In N Out!! I moved away from California four years ago and I miss it EVERY. DAY.
This wedding was just… awesome.
Emzy said
You guys are my heroes. <3
Carren said
Wow…I mean…really…WOW! I'm stunned, and totally in LOVE! WOW….
Jen said
Huge fan of the headpiece! AWESOME!
Halle said
This wedding has SO… MANY… THINGS I LOOOVE. Congrats to the kickass couple!
PS Every wedding I see done by Megan makes me happy I booked her as my photographer for my (almost) Halloween wedding next year!
Mallory said
I absolutely love this wedding. The three things I think I geeked out the most for were:
The birdcage veil: my fiance is a comic book artist. When I saw the veil I kept yelling "Honey, look! It's so cool!"
The dress. So cute, but if you click on the designer's store, it's ALL cute. I didn't even like tea length until after today.
The invitations. What a great sense of humor.
I posted a link to this on FB and I've been getting comments about it all day. Everyone loves this wedding. Congrats and thanks for sharing to the couple.
