Alyssa & Davey’s fireworks and comic books wedding
Superheroes, NERF guns, fancy lighting, and an epic fireworks show with heart-shaped fireworks? You know we’re in like Flynn. Just try and hold back the goosebumps when you hear what the best man said to his big brother. SO CUTE! We’re in for geeky, we’re in for awesome… we’re in for geeky awesome!
Rachel & Bo’s rockin’ red and black wedding
There were a few very sweet moments in this wedding: mom walking her daughter down the aisle, friends singing at the ceremony, and a rockin’ band playing for their friends at the reception. I also can’t forget to mention the gorgeous red and black details like the bride’s shoes (matching her hair!), black crinoline, and flower clutch. It all ends up being a fabulous music-filled day.
Karly & Steve’s artsy and crafty upcycled wedding
A certain superstorm may have wreaked havoc in the days before this wedding, but they pulled it all together somehow with the help of friends (and a new “BYOC: Bring Your Own Cupcakes” clause!). We’re really thankful they did, because we did not want to miss the amazing Wai-Ching dress, gorgeously-coiffed dreads, adorable family sand ceremony, and all of the DIY projects. Oh, let’s not forget the Harry Potter-inspired saxophonist/magician and impromptu break dancing on the dance floor.
Rock star guestbook alternative: Sign a guitar!
If you and your partner are musically inclined, immortalize your wedding day with an autographed instrument. Ask all your guests to rock the guitar. Not into the rock and roll? Mulling over a Mahler-inspired version? Sign a violin! Toot your own(autographed blue French) horn! Make beautiful music with this guestbook alternative.
Make playable 7″ vinyl records for your concert-themed wedding invitations
My partner and I saw that awesome video of someone else’s invites in which they made a record out of paper that was even playable! Both my man and I thought that was amazing… but how come the invitations couldn’t just be an actual record?
