“It’s the Super Moon, bruh” at this Spaceship Earth forest rave wedding
We met at a Full Moon Gathering campout, Moontribe's 20th anniversary. It was a fantastic weekend and we heard echoed throughout the party, "It's the Super Moon, bruh" as the explanation for the awesomeness everywhere. Five years later, still following cosmic novelties and electronic music, we trekked to Oregon for the Solar Eclipse festival Symbiosis. Josh proposed during the eclipse with the solar ring as my engagement ring! We carried this theme through our engagement shoot and wedding.

A rustic zodiac inspiration shoot in the foothills of Colorado (with a surprise vintage VW!)
This zodiac inspiration shoot was driven by constellation imagery with purples, gold, and a touch of galactic pink. Geometric and star shapes were used throughout, from the bride’s hairpieces, to the geometric wedding arch, to the table decorations, and geode cake. Don’t miss the bride’s loose bouquet of wildflowers and sage and the surprise gold vintage Volkswagen that happened upon the scene without any planning!
Constellations, a dragon cake, and BEARS at this Chicago planetarium wedding
Alex and Glenn were OVERFLOWING with ideas for their wedding. Alex’s Indian heritage was featured during the ceremony overlooking Lake Michigan in Chicago by focusing on a stunning mehndi-inspired aisle runner. They held it at the spectacular Adler Planetarium(!) which capitalized on Glenn’s love of constellations. Think outer space colors like deep fuchsia, purple, and blue, and “under the sea”-themed invitation suite, centerpieces featuring constellations and sea creatures,
Don’t miss the two epic dresses the bride wore, the fabulous dragon cake, and the constellation coloring book…
A galaxy themed tiny zoo wedding with tons of DIY
Our wedding was a mix of us wanting to keep it below a very certain budget and wanting to make it the most fun we could. The theme was sci-fi and we had fun with it. For starters, all of our centerpieces were hand-made by us, each being a scene from a TV show or movie we loved. These included Doctor Who, 2001 A Space Odyssey, Fifth Element, Star Wars, Star Trek, and Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. We also hid some dragons and unicorns in there as a reference to our favorite fantasy animals.
Stars meets nature: a subtly geeky lakeside wedding with DIY for days
We combined our love for nature and the stars into a theme that came very easily for us. It helped that we found a venue that was the perfect setting to view the beauty of nature, as well as get a great view of the stars at night. To further our theme, I wanted to add a bit of a fantasy element so I decided to add subtle details that drew from Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, both of which we're big fans.
