Beth & Cory’s artsy, nerdy, and elegant museum wedding

A black Vera Wang dress, black studded heels, and a groom in white — already the fashion is enough to make us drool, but just wait until you see the video game references and home brewery-inspired decor. It’s Final Fantasy meets beer meets dark elegance at this art museum in Ohio.

Alise & Adam’s intimate San Francisco surprise elopement

These cuties met on Tinder! After the bride’s experiences as a wedding hairstylist, the whole idea of a wedding wasn’t for her, so these two took off to San Francisco’s city hall to get married and surprise all their friends. With only four people in attendance (and one cheeky officiant!), they made it official. Don’t miss the purple hair, glittery gold dress, and amazing scenery.

We’re falling into the so-excited-it’s-almost-fall trap hardcore. But that’s okay: trap us in your cool embrace and crunchy leaves, fall! Here’s a little horror and zombies pre-Halloween preview to whet your appetite for the season. The dessert bar alone is to die for… think anatomical hearts, zombie mousse graves, and a cake with a giant bloody bite out of it. It’s ghoulishly delicious!
