Cecil & Paul’s animals, vuvuzelas, and NERF war wedding
You’re probably looking at the title of this wedding and tilting your head a bit. But don’t worry, it all makes sense when you know the theme of this wedding is pure, unadulterated FUN! Animal-themed tables, food truck tacos, and rock-paper-scissors start off the good times, but the giant NERF gun war at the reception kept it all going strong into the night!
Make flowers out of love letters (or emails)
“Eirik handmade all the flowers. Since we met online, my bouquet was made out of paper that I had printed our very first emails to each other on. My bridesmaids’ flowers had their respective names printed on them, the moms had white flowers with “Mom” printed on them, and the groomsmen and dads had boutonnieres made out of pages from comics books.”
Faith & Aaron’s steamy Muppet wedding with a touch of Stephen Colbert
This combination of themes may seem a little odd at first, but once you see it, you love it! We’ve got Stephen Colbert-inspired cue cards, spin drums, steamy Western/sci-fi garb (complete with ray guns), flame-powered centerpieces, and some sweet children’s vows. You might also be inspired by their half public/half private vows, too. Oh, and wait until you see the faux “ink bleeder” pen made by the groom for the signing of the marriage certificate! Totally bad-ass.
Sam & Eric’s pinwheels, robots, and Star Wars wedding
Robots and aliens have invaded weddings this week! It’s making me want to break it down in a binary solo. Today we’ve got Darth Vader in LEGO form, a robot card box, and tons of pinwheels. Oh, and you’ll never guess what the guests had to do to get win the bouquet toss!
A spiral aisle wedding where the bride had her mother’s ashes in her bouquet
Remember the spiral aisle that we featured? Here they are, along with tons of paper flowers (that look super real), a Banksy guest book, a secret handshake at the end of the ceremony, and of course, their completely awesome way to fix the problem of a lopsided guest list. Oh, and wait until you see the reception skits that included cardboard box masks with giant eyelashes!
Audrey & Hal’s flight and adventure-inspired wedding
This week we’re letting our hair down and getting back to nature in the wild, wild outdoors! And this one is all about an mountain-loving, cliff-hiking, wanderlusting couple in northern Idaho. There is much to love: map flowers, tear-jerking vows, and epic scenery. They even had meaningful cupcake flavors!
