A surprise wedding ceremony play at a haunted Ghost Hunters hotel

Ashlie and Clay wanted to share their love of theater by hosting a surprise play as their wedding ceremony! From the custom playbill to the haunted prohibition gambling hall and the hotel once owned by mobsters in the Prohibition era, this historical theater wedding was amazing. Don’t miss the gifts they gave to one another that were the actual sound waves of them speaking their vows to one another!

Tropical 1 alternative wedding ideas from Offbeat Wed (formerly Offbeat Bride)

From sweet & romantic to grand & theatrical, these wedding headpieces are dropping jaws

From retro fascinators to lovely flower crowns to masterpieces of intricate design, these wedding headpieces function as formal accessory but also as re-wearable art for parties, holidays, theater, and more. Jezebel, the artist behind all of these creations, described them as “fun and fabulous frippery” which I think describes what most of us would love for our outfits to be on our wedding day. If you can’t have a little frippery, what can you have?

D&D, costumes, & epic music at this heavy metal wedding in Utah

Our wedding theme was Dungeons & Dragons! It's not just a game to us, it's a lifestyle. I have been playing since I was 12 — my dad Dungeon Mastered a group for me and my best girlfriends. Later, I met my husband through D&D. I have developed the most amazing friendships and family relationships through D&D and it only made sense to make it our wedding theme. We even picked character classes for the event. I was a Paladin and Henry was a Wizard…

hen May the 4th falls on a weekend, you know there will be some choice Star Wars-influenced weddings to be seen. But Tiffany and Kyle’s epic Star Wars wedding takes the Wookiee cookies. From dancing storm troopers to a Darth Vader ceremony cameo to original Star Wars artwork by the bride to the TIE Fighter cake, it was a galactic celebration the likes of which Endor and Naboo had never seen.

This fun Chicago wedding and rock show

A hip Chicago wedding and rock show (with comic book & movie cameos!)

Matt and Kelly’s hip Chicago wedding had a private ceremony in the lounge at Logan Theatre in Chicago, and then a giant party/rock show with their favorite soul band The Hemispheres. They even flew in guest lead singer Todd Hembrook for the event!

Their mutual affinity for comic books and sci-fi appeared in a few places including Kelly’s custom-made comic book shoes. Matt’s cousin officiated the ceremony, incorporating their love of movies. Let’s see how these two comic book and movie nerds rock out in Chicago…

The wedding rock opera of our DREAMS (now with video proof!)

You may remember Rebecca and Bryan from their rockin’ wedding we featured a while back. We teased their all-original ROCK OPERA that they performed at their wedding. And now we’ve got the video evidence by [heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/the-adventures-of"]The Adventures Of[/heart] that something this rad actually happened. Don’t miss the “fuck yeah, I do” wedding vows, the original songs, and spectacular performances. It’s making our lives.
