Comic book brides! In honor of Con season, here's a cool and functional item for your ladies to carry as they join you at the end of the aisle: a purse made from a comic book. 
Tribe member Deloreangrrl's groom and his friend made this save-the-date comic strip from an old Batman comic for their Alice in Wonderland-themed wedding. And these were emailed to save on postage and to be kind to the earth. This, among many other excellent photos of boots, kilts, flasks, dresses, awesome ink, and a circus tent piñata, came from our reader submissions. I love it when the Tribe, the Offbeat Flickr Pool, and the Offbeat Bride Pinterest account come though for us with this kind of eye candy. 
We've already covered wedding night nookie and keeping it special. But perhaps some of you would rather keep it hilarious and surprising? Maybe your partner is a classic movie monster fan and the sexiness above would show just how much you want to please them. I went on a hunt for more geeky, fangirl-y, and just plain fun panty/undie/boxer options for the wedding night (or the next day, depending on how tired you are!). 
A love of DIY and a love of comic book superheros was just the start of the planning for this party. Deciding on a live band was a compromise that paid off. Plus, they said their vows in the same church Amanda's grandmother attended and in which her great-great-grandparents were married. Aww! 
Are you up for some major geekiness, some DIY projects, some fairies, and a watermelon Death Star? Oh, you are? Cool, this one's for you. And you might <3 the less-than-three cake topper. Be prepared. 
The Offbeat Flickr Pool was jumping with cool fashion, cool photo ops, and cool venues. As one bride dances herself down the aisle, another hosts their reception at an arcade. Wrap it all up with some ninjas and XKCD, and you've got a wild and woolly Monday Montage. 
Scott Pilgrim-inspired Save the Dates seriously kick some major ass! Check out how two of our offbeat brides pulled off Scott Pilgrim Save the Dates and wedding invitations. And then learn how you too could do the very same… at your own risk, of course. 
These two celebrated their love of lit with book centerpieces, comics and books table numbers, portraits from comic artists, and a giant book card box. They even made origami flowers from comic pages. But to spice things up, they had an awesome swing number for their first dance. |
