For those of you seeking out alternatives to the traditional floral bouquet, check out Rachel’s fabulous peacock feather bouquet.

The peacock theme continued on the wedding cake, too.

It’s worth checking out all the photos from this lovely wedding … this one is my favorite, although I’m also quite fond of this one of the wedding party and the adorable flower girls.

(Thanks to maggiemacphoto for the photo!)

The offbeat bride: Elly, student

My offbeat groom: Justin, art guy

Location & date of wedding: May 5 2007 at a family ranch in Ellensburg, WA (middle of nowhere, just about)

What made our wedding offbeat: Ways we were odd: wrote our own very naturalistic vows, made and/or altered a lot of the small details, bought the dress (and many other bits) on ebay, did a ‘formal’ ceremony in barefeet. Yes, I think we scared the crap out of some people, including the neighbors. We each had three rings. That was probably the most expensive part beyond the Canadian photographer!

I mean really …

… It’s hard to beat the drama of a red wedding dress. Then again, all the shots from Suzanne and Kevin’s wedding are pretty dramatic. I especially love this shot of the bride walking in with her father, and this one of the bride & groom kissing. See the whole set. Oh, and even MORE pictures over here.

Oh and PS: best wedding boots evar!!
