Mike & Eleven's Stranger Things wedding of our Eggo waffled, Upside Down imaginations

Mike & Eleven’s Stranger Things wedding of our Eggo, Upside Down imaginations

If you’re a fan of Netflix’s Stranger Things, you’ll know that season 3 starts tonight and should be lots of retro horror fun. The idea for this Stranger Things wedding inspiration came after photographer Julie Floro saw Mike and Eleven kiss at the Snow Ball and couldn’t stop imagining their fictional future marriage, complete with Eggo waffle bar, Upside Down-inspired florals (with red lilies reminiscent of the Demogorgon’s mouth!), and outfits inspired by the show including the Snow Ball.

Amie and Michelle’s original plan was to elope in a daffodil field, but instead they opted for a relaxed ceremony in the heart of Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood where personality and expressiveness outweighed decor and tradition. Capitol Hill has a lot of pride around its rich LGBTQ culture and history, so it just made sense for them. The ceremony and reception itself took place at Sole Repair, which is a stunning window-lit urban venue and fit their aesthetic perfectly. Just wait until you see the surprise unicorn first look!

Disney villains meet classic heroes at this high fantasy wedding

Disney villains meet classic heroes at this high fantasy wedding

I have worked in the wedding industry for five years now and when my partner and I decided to get married I didn’t want anything “Wedding” — so what did we do? We had a Heroes and Villains themed wedding! It was a wedding filled with love and little bits from friends and family. We danced the night away and played games at every table. And in not-so-true villain fashion, I got the girl in the end!

Bend the knee for this epic, snowy Game of Thrones wedding inspiration

If you’re half as excited about the final season of Game of Thrones as I am, you’re probably peeing yourself.

Holographic Mermaid Wedding Dress

This holographic mermaid wedding dress is blowing my mind (and giving me fins!)

Researching dresses can yield fab rewards. Such was the case when I spied this mermaid fantasy of a gown from KMKDesigns. I love a dress that can be re-worn in general, but when it can be reworn as a costume, for a super glam ball, or any fancy dress party, it’s a win. It’s made of holographic vinyl and pearlescent organza with approximately one zillion hand-sewn iridescent sequins and pearls.

We love attending Renaissance Faires and have always wanted nice Renaissance costumes, so we decided to have a themed wedding. Our wedding was Renaissance-inspired and we encouraged guests to dress on theme as well. Nearly everyone showed up in costume to have a merry time. We even got to reuse our Renaissance outfits the next weekend while attending a Renaissance festival.
