Goth monochromatic video games wedding

Black and white stripes, a sexy pin-up dress, long black gloves, and a groom in red — this wedding is very enticing. Add in all of the video game references (including in the vows!), and you’ve got the best combination of gamer geeks and total hotties. Don’t miss the Mario centerpieces and the bride’s swanky top hat and Batman ring!

Carrie & Mason’s barefoot mountain wedding

This pair wanted a planned elopement in the mountains followed by a second ceremony and barn party the weekend after! It’s the best of both worlds. It may have been August in Kentucky (meaning HOT), but everyone pulled up a box fan and had a steamy, dreamy, barefooted good time.

Laura & Garrett’s budget- and kid-friendly wedding

Camels and zebras and children — oh my! There’s no better recipe for Southern fun than animals, kids, and balloons. Oh, and tons of pies WITH handmade recipe book favors. And a lollipop miracle at the ceremony. And a super sweet moment with the bride’s father during their father/daughter dance. And so much more. SO MUCH!

Shh. No talking. Let’s just quietly bask in the sweet visual deliciousness of this green-to-blue gradiated cake. You can call it ombre if you’re into that kind of thing, I’m just going to call it the most gorgeous thing I’ve seen today, and go change my metaphorical pants, which I may have just metaphorically soiled.
