This post is strictly superficial. I must goo all over myself about ZOMG I LOVE KEZIA'S OUTFIT … especially that tricorn hat!

Wow. I'm having a headsplody moment over the whole shebang, and things just got crazier when after a little research I found that of course the tricorn is by Topsy Turvy (an OBB fave!) and that the dress was made by the mother of the bride. SRSLY!

I'm hoping to have the full story on Kezia & David's London wedding soon, but in the meantime many thanks to London photographer Marcus T for the photo — if you want to see more of Kezia & David's wedding, head on over to his website!

My bridesmaids wore simple medieval style dresses.

The offbeat bride: Jenn, Youth Worker

Her offbeat partner: Brandon, Musician

Location & date of wedding: Illuminated Sculpture Gallery in New Orleans, LA on January 10th, 2009

What made our wedding offbeat: We were already legally married and decided to get "weddinged" almost exactly on our one year anniversary.

Not bad to have already gotten through the first year of marriage on your wedding day…makes for a lot less nervousness.
