The offbeat bride: Karen, Payroll Analyst (and Tribe member)

Her offbeat partner: Ian, Software Engineer

Date and location of wedding: The Baldachin Inn, Ontario, Canada — September 10, 2011

What made our wedding offbeat: Ian and I met because of our mutual interest in City of Heroes (an online superhero game). We're both huge geeks, and among our common interests are comics, video games, Dungeons & Dragons, and sword fighting. We knew we wanted to incorporate those things into the wedding.

These two met during a charity clunker car race from London to Mongolia. While that's cool enough, their wedding takes the cake with the bride's fantastic gown and the couple's first sword fight.

Rainbow socks? Check. Swords? Check. Post-wedding hair cut? Check. Life-size cut out of groomsman walked down the aisle by the bridesman? Hell to the yes!

Down unda, it's actually summer right now and tropical Darwin, on Australia's northern coast, is ALWAYS hot. Day 4 of Beach Week will now make all of us freezing are asses off jealous of Emma & Jon's holy-shit-amazeballs wedding AND the temperature.

You may remember Jes's two fabulous dresses from the Monday Montage a few weeks back. This thoughtful, geeky, steampunk wedding won't disappoint. -Becca

Gina & Frank showed their life long commitment to each other by getting ring tattoos during their ceremony! This fit in perfectly with their tattoo-filled, circus side-show themed wedding.

Remember that photo I shared with you of the couple surrounded by swords post-wedding ceremony? Or the photo of a bride with a fuzzy creature on her shoulder? Well, that daring couple was Annie & Johnny! Here's the rest of their Wild Animal Park/fencing wedding story. -Coco
