Morgan & Matt’s robot love fest wedding
Robots and aliens have invaded weddings this week! It’s making me want to break it down in a binary solo. This couple had all their guests bring something robo-related, including a mini mechanical baby! And barring one robot mishap at the ceremony, it was a total success. Even some YOLOing teenagers couldn’t hamper the awesomeness.
A gothic chapel Edward Gorey wedding
We love our offbeat lite brides, and this wedding totally captures that traditional-meets-personalized vibe, including a gorgeous chapel and a little bit of gothic, Edward Gorey-style decor. The custom illustrations drawn by the groom are rocking my world! And if you’re planning a birdseed recessional, take heed. I think the bride’s still picking out seeds from her hair.
A retro red and teal wedding that fits us like a glove
Sometimes we see a wedding and we just know it’s a classic match for Offbeat Bride in the best ways possible. That’s you, Kaelen and Nathan, with your handfasting, red and teal color scheme, monster card box, funky mustache props, and sweet blue dress and shrug (that Kaelen made herself!).
Ruth & Andrew’s spiritually eclectic museum wedding
This bride got a little perspective and went from “Super Special Shocking Spectacular” to real-life, community-driven, awesome wedding. With a shmancy museum backdrop, a handfasting, and a ring warming (with a time-saving twist), meaning and tears were not hard to come by. And give me a few non-matchy matchy bridesmaids’ dresses with pockets any day.
Our Pagan Pulgas Water Temple wedding
A smidge of Alice in Wonderland, a Regency-style tailcoat, and a bride coming out as Pagan to her family: this is an intriguing combination. But don’t miss the gob-smacking ceremony location and tear-jerking father/daughter dance. Tissues required! And just wait until you see the risque garter shenanigans and missing dress at the reception.
Michele & Douglas’ fairy forest handfasting on a farm
This week we’re letting our hair down and getting back to nature in the wild, wild outdoors! Today’s wedding explodes with mossy, fairy goodness, “mushroom” desserts, a killer black corset dream dress, and break-dancing family fun on a farm. Plus, you’ll learn how to better prepare for those tough vow questions.
