Jade & Jonathan’s down-to-earth backyard wedding
A painted mailbox, an adorably awkward bride/grandfather walk down the aisle, and a top-your-own doughnut bar — oh hell yeah, this wedding is Fun City. This wedding also has one of the funniest moments we’ve read about in awhile. Let’s just say there was a really big mix-up in locations.
Amanda & Lee’s knights and dragons colorful fairy tale wedding
If you’re still reading this and haven’t already clicked to see more of the fabulous red dress, dapper white suit, and DRAGON HEADPIECE, there’s more to see in this white-knight-marries-a-lovely-dragon wedding. We’re talking handmade dragon wings, light-up leather bouquets, Magic: the Gathering rings, Frozen karaoke, and a Mario Kart shell toss. If that doesn’t get you, nothing will!
Lara & Hunter’s tea party wedding with feathers and hats
Teapots, cucumber sandwiches, and cake on the best man’s face? It’s a tea party wedding turned upside down. Add in fancy hats, a retro venue, and a wild dance party, and you’ve got this sweet little wedding in Washington. And when it comes to this bride’s hat, there was nothing to do but put a bird on it!
Liza & Kyle’s rustic Scandinavian-inspired wedding
Give us a rustic venue and gorgeous flowers any day. But add in some Wiccan and Scandanavian handfasting details, awesome rustic and mustache-y decor, and some Vengaboys(!) and we’re smitten. Take a peek at this wedding for some sweet silliness and good old fashioned fun.
Andreas & Ariel’s island hippie/raver forest freak-fest (10th anniversary flashback!)
10 years ago today, the wedding that ultimately kicked off the whole weird world that is Offbeat Bride happened. On August 7th 2004, I married Andreas. Then I wrote a book about it. Then I launched a website about the book, and now here we are. To celebrate, I figured I’d fill out a wedding profile myself. If these pics make you curious, you can get the Offbeat Bride book on Amazon for like 50 cents.
Alysha & Geb’s “actors in love” superhero wedding
It’s a bird, it’s a plane… it’s Offbeat Bride’s comic book-clad and caped superhero theme week! Get in the telephone booth and change into your wedding-gawking superhero tights — you’re in for crime-fighting fun. This time we’ve got two actors who fell in love on the stage and wanted to celebrate it superhero-style. Get ready for singing and dancing bridesmaids, a whole lotta Hanson music, and the return of… THE UNITY SANDWICH!
