Angie & Marc’s fairy tale chapel red hot wedding

This bride and her mother both picked out the wedding chapel independently. And once I saw it, I though probably would have too! In an idyllic location, with a small group of their closest pals, donning red gowns and fedoras, these two lovebirds finally closed the 5000 mile-gap and got married.

Vanessa & Mando’s rose that took 13 years to bloom wedding

Wearing mom’s dress from the ’70s, bearing roses and the look of love, these two celebrated 13 years together by making it official. Add in classic cars, some DIY (program fans and caramel apples!), and a sweet rose theme, and this is an offbeat lite wedding that makes me squee.

Meagan & Simon’s Mad Hatter tea party wedding

Fabric and button flowers, overflowing tea cups, The Red Queen’s croquet, and some adorable hats — it can only be an Alice in Wonderland-themed wedding! Add in the epic food fight and you’re in for hilarity. Watch out for Alice though — she’s got her eye on your cake.

Emily & Bill’s rainy and cozy camp chapel wedding

A very cool Texas guest book, a Bender card box, towers full of homemade cupcakes (and zombie cupcakes!) , and all the ladies wearing cowboy boots: it’s a feast for the eyes! Plus, they shared not only a first dance, but THE very first dance ever together. And if all that isn’t enough, there’s a cute pooch wearing a bow tie. You’re hooked now.

Gillian & Mark’s offbeat lite transatlantic wedding

This wedding packs a visual punch with a gorgeous cathedral in Scotland, awesome kilts, and most amazing sunny day for the UK. The handmade dress (made by the bride’s mother!) is a testament to craftsmanship. Oh, and the gorgeous art deco-inspired cake, and unexpected wedding crashers are worth a look too!

How come the cold and grey UK gets all the hot weddings?

When Paul Thurlow Photography sent us this wedding, I believe Ariel’s word was “GORGE.” Lush photos, an eerie gray day (my favorite kind), and major style all wrapped up in some classic traditions was the name of this game. Vicky is an alternative model and Rob is a guitarist in the rock band Dead PinUps, located in the UK. They both exude dark, rock glamour and the camera loooooves them.
