We LOVE the dichotomy of this Chinese-cowboy New York and Texas karaoke wedding

Cowboy hats, a Chinese tea ceremony, a gorgeous red qipao, New York, Texas, wild drunken karaoke, and honoring the parents — this Texas karaoke wedding is everything and more to fill your senses with awe.

It’s #dorklove at this comic book store and art gallery wedding

We’d already seen Puja and Michaels’s geektastic venue, but we’d never seen the actual wedding! We’ve got the whole shebang now including their comic book details (and of course, the rad comic book store venue!), Puja’s killer blue and white cocktail-length dress, used book centerpieces, library book place cards, and a “love formula” cake. This is one for the books… the comic books, that is…
