We had a Halloween theme and got married on Friday the 13th. We skipped the flower girl and our friend Mike was our FLOWER GHOUL instead!

This goth inspiration shoot was all about chic black on black with hints of red and sparkle. Think skull rings, studded heels, ultra lush and dark paperie, aged paper and faux fur, and even a SNAKE! Now this is how you do goth-meets-luxe.

Just wait until you see the handmade guestbook journal in Edgar Allan Poe style by Nik the Booksmith. OH: and the black cake! It’s sheer black magic.

We had a rock show-themed wedding, which was inspired by our engagement shoot (by the fantastic Wild About You Photography) at a San Francisco music venue. Rye and I have a mutual passion for rock music, tattoos, and the macabre, so that theme covered lots of what we love!

We asked our guests to "channel their inner punk rocker" and wear clothing that reflected whatever "rock and roll" meant to them. There were lots of leather jackets, band shirts, combat boots, and colored hair.

Aaron and Kryssa wanted a personalized wedding that matched their dark and alternative style. Aaron rocked his red Doc Marten boots and he and his crew traveled to the ceremony location by bicycle as they love to ride to bikes. There were skulls, ink, deep red details, and a super fab black gown and purple hair.

Just wait until you see their choreographed dance!

Alex and Mick’s Friday the 13th wedding featured some of the most amazing details we’ve seen: a hand-painted antler headpiece, Mick’s killer hot pink suit, handmade rings (that they made!), and an after party at some pubs. This is a wedding I can only wish I attended. Here’s a little from the couple themselves including MAJOR surprises at both the ceremony and reception…
