The offbeat bride: Valery, Student

Her offbeat partner: Jon, Student

Date and location of wedding: Stokely Event Center, Tulsa, OK — October 7, 2011

Our offbeat wedding at a glance: Once we saw Stokely Event Center, we fell in love with it! It was perfect for us and seemed like it would be perfect for everyone else as well. Since we decided we didn't want any alcohol (for cost and personal reasons), we were concerned with people "not having as much fun." This venue had the perfect setting for a fun night: neon lights, a shuffleboard, pinball games, skee ball, etc.

You never know what you'll find in the Offbeat Flickr Pool. But this week I ran into so many kick-ass hats and headpieces! It was a no-brainer to put them all in this Monday Montage, plus a few from the Offbeat Bride Pinterest account. Enjoy these head coverings in all shapes and sizes.

A wedding in an authentic nightclub dating back to Prohibition is the PERFECT place for a speakeasy-themed party featuring peacock details, a little burlesque, live music, and a to-die-for corseted gown. Check out this vintage-style wedding, but beware the ill-fated salt ceremony!

Caroline is our illustrious copyeditor who keeps the editors in check with her grammar whip. She also has some cute photos of her grandparents' wedding from 1944 that were definitely worth showing. You've got to love a dame in a pillbox hat and her uniformed fella.

Striking poses, throwing horns, and generally being awesome was a theme in the Offbeat Flickr Pool this week. Everyone was mugging for the camera and showing off their stuff. Plus we've got some pretty cool fascinators and hats to top things off in this week's Monday Montage.

This couple from 1948 jets off to their Chicago honeymoon looking straight out of a magazine. Don't fall too hard for her hat though — it's a goner.

Feathers, flowers, rhinestones, birdcage veils, mini top hats and whatever else people like to adorn their noggins with. This Monday Montage is dedicated to awesome hats, head pieces, and head decorations.

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I wanted to repeat what Ariel said. I am also incredibly thankful for all of you and for the hours of joy and LOLs that all of your wedding photos provide me. Give yourself a high-five, because you rock! Anyway, getting back to business, this week's Monday Montage starts off with a bang (pun intended ). It also has some impressive lookin' ladies, a little steam-punk, a little goth, a few umbrellas and some good old fashioned boogie time.
