Stacey & Brandon’s retro sci-fi atompunk wedding

Danger, Will Robinson! This wedding has too much retro sci-fi style to be contained! We’re talking a science museum venue, guests in sci-fi gear (with matching DIY tin foil hats!), constellation cupcakes, and spooky-awesome fog! Oh, and let’s not forget the famous Randy to the Rescue dress. Resistance is futile.

Melaney & John’s small town Tex-Mex dinosaur rock wedding

Let’s see here: dinosaurs (and a dino adult piñata!), a small town outdoor setting with a big cocktail gathering before the ceremony, and 34 DOZEN tamales… where do I sign up for this wedding? Oh, and don’t forget the groom’s and the bride’s mother’s live band performances, the Monty Python call-out in the ceremony, and the unintentional ass-grab by the groom during the first dance!

Rita Marie & Sergio’s intimate celebration of marriage

Small and intimate weddings are often killer in that they let you focus on what and who really matters to you. This sweet and small wedding encapsulates that sentiment perfectly. They had a pre-wedding ring warming in their hometown in Texas and an eight-person ceremony and reception in San Francisco (which allowed the groom’s mom to officiate!).
