Geeky undies for a sexy wedding night surprise

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!).

Starkers! Corsetry’s Offbeat Bride-inspired gowns

There’s a first for everything, and this marks the first time in five years that I’ve ever posted photos from a wedding gown fashion show. Runway shots just aren’t really my thing — I usually prefer seeing real people in real dresses, rather than gawking at designer stuff somebody might wear.

Leave it to Dianna DiNoble from Starkers! Corsetry[vendor-heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/dianna-dinoble-starkers-corsetry"] to make me change my mind. This show, part of Fashion Art Toronto‘s Fashion Week pretty much blew me away. While Offbeat Bride isn’t affiliated with any of these gowns in any way, Dianna told me that the line was very much inspired by the tastes of Offbeat Brides.

And oh my, what taste it is…

A queertastic gothic Victorian celebration of love

Corsets, sword canes, cat cupcake toppers, and a stylin’ gender-neutral party of “wing people.” That’s the fun in store with this celebration of throwing caution and gender to the wind. Plus, there’s a heaping helping of gothic Victorian fashion.

Gothic punk at a seaside wedding with whales and wine

The backdrop to this gothic punk wedding is certainly not the norm. Picture a craggy sea, 1000-foot drop, and whales hitting the surface. The combination of the elegant corsetry, skull details, and seaside winery setting had me at “hello.”

Valerie & Buz’s San Francisco speakeasy cocktail party wedding

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!
