Julie & Tim’s garden party family and friends wedding
Gathering family from many locations can be stressful, but these two celebrated their 15-year romance with their nearest and dearest and made it look easy. They rocked a choreographed mother-daughter-sister dance and a “first performance” instead of a first dance. But a cameo from a carboard pooch proved the funniest moment of all.
Laura & Michael’s blue winter wedding in Brooklyn
A royal blue suit, a “cake inspector,” a few DIY projects, and one of our favorite venues — this winter wedding in Brooklyn is all about easy-going awesomeness. Don’t miss the fabric flower bouquet, mini flags, and tiny succulents. And you’ll never guess what the groom used to break the glass at the ceremony!
Kaitlyn & Joe’s cupcakes and courthouse jail tour wedding
This bride owns one of our most favorite dress design companies, [vendor-heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/kmkdesigns"]KMKDesigns[/vendor-heart], so you won’t be too surprised to see that her own dress is nothing less than magnificent. But you’ll also be swept away by the other handmade fashions, nom-worthy cupcakes, the jail tour, and the totally sweet “high school prom” first dance.
Giovanna & Jonathan’s colorful gamers and costumes wedding
When a Stormtrooper walks you down the aisle and Darth Vader is the flower girl, you know you’re in for something geektastically awesome. Add in the video game details, the epic costume party, and the amazingly colorful reception dress, and it’s on like Donkey Kong. Oh, and wait until you see their lightsaber candle ceremony!

Stephanie & Amir’s celebration of love, art, and volunteerism wedding
