The offbeat bride: Kristina, Student Adviser at a Natural Health College

Her offbeat partner: Ki Yin, Enterprise Resource Planning Officer (IT wizard!)

Date and location of wedding: Queensland Registry Office and a hotel, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia — December 19, 2011

Our offbeat wedding at a glance: It was a tale of East meets West: a Canadian dame living in Adelaide (West-ish), and her beau from Hong Kong in Brisbane (to the East). An androgynous Asian fell for a rockabilly chick! That's us: the quiet, quirky couple who finally decided to settle in Brisbane and tie the knot our way. We wanted a wedding that would reflect our style and incorporate Chinese tradition in the mix. We both love the colour red, and as this represents good luck in Eastern tradition, we went for a "Double Happiness" theme with a rockabilly twist.

Sometimes you have too many interests to smoosh into one wedding. Such was the case with this Aussie wedding in a lush garden. Though they ran into a few problems with vendor communication, you'd never know it by the end result. Enjoy this lovely, stylized wedding (with a bonus legal wedding!).

Peacock feathers, homemade vanilla syrup, and two ceremonies make me happy. Add in some tree planting, multicultural reception games, lots of henna, and a whole roasted lamb, and it's a party. Check out this amazing wedding full of rich culture.

This couple loves Krispy Kremes, books, vintage cameras, and each other. Do you want to be their BFFs yet? They had two ceremonies (one being of the humanist persuasion), an epic candy buffet, and dress-up costumes for the reception resulting in much hilariousness. The coincidental ceremony mishap is pretty funny too.

This week we're celebrating our awesome Offbeat Lite couples. Today we've got a two-day wedding that combines Lego cakes and tradition beautifully.

Just ask this dancin' couple: you can have a church wedding or a civil ceremony, but it don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing.

A little bit country, a whole lotta rock 'n roll … and a pornographic letter as a reading? Can you say amazeballs?!? As if the kick-ass tutu dress wasn't ball-out enough …

An Elvis impersonator, purple wedding dress, elopement and a boat party? This wedding is awesome and sneaks in some tighty-(non)whitey action! Can you spot the briefs?
