The Offbeat Bride: Allison, Marketing Representative

Her offbeat partner: Jacob, 2nd Lt. in the Air Force

Date and location of wedding: Our home church in rural Pennock, MN — December 31, 2010

Our offbeat wedding at a glance: Never before would I have chosen a winter wedding in Minnesota, but that was our timeline because of my husband's military constraints, so a winter wedding it was! I was pretty intimidated by the cold weather. So, I had a white winter coat made and refused to be intimidated by the terrible forecast people kept informing us about. I also wore navy blue boots and hot pink tights.

These two eco-friendly, tea-loving cuties had a DIY-filled ceremony and reception in a church with a cupcake bar and a live music jam session. Family is really important to them and it totally shows in the details. Plus, Charis' groom's two left feet are adorable.

Just ask this dancin' couple: you can have a church wedding or a civil ceremony, but it don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing.

Happy Valentine's Day! Each of us here at Offbeat Bride want to know: Will you be mine? I'm hoping this beautiful, Valentine's Day wedding will encourage you to say "Yes!"

You guys may recall our sponsor JPG Photography from his several previous features. This time JPG is back with Maggie and Justin's Wedding at the Chantilly Baptist Church in Virginia. And the details of this wedding are as mind-blowing as the photos themselves…

As avid live action role players, it was only fitting that Anja & Lutz have a full-on historically-inspired, live action role player wedding. They even got their guests to dress up!

Sarah & Stephen had their ceremony in a sweet chapel and then their reception at a graffitied power station turned art gallery. They had a sexy, dark, urban photo shoot and a wedding singer in a shiny blue unitard!

When asked what made her wedding offbeat, Beth said, "What, being gray and bald isn't offbeat enough in our pretty young bride magazine world?" I say that anyone who rocks who they are and where they're at in their life at their wedding (or in general) is just plain awesome. Beth and Jay did, in fact, rock their kid-friendly, 40-something second wedding. It included a traditional service featuring Beth's kids as the wedding party, sunflowers, and lots of DIY details.
