An Autumn witch lesbian wedding with tarot, tattoos, and beer

As practicing pagans, we also incorporated many elements of our spirituality, such as tarot readers at the reception and a Samhain memorial altar. Harry Potter has been interwoven into our relationship for 20 years, so we had subtle hints of our love for the series in our decor (side note: we got engaged at and shot our engagement photos at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter). We made our reception personal by including all the things we love: coffee, beer, tattoos, and tarot!

We had a geek adventure wedding theme, incorporating a few of our favorite things in every way we could (Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who, The Elder Scrolls, Dungeons & Dragons, The Princess Bride, Game of Thrones, Firefly, New World Magischola, and more). We encouraged everyone to come in costume (and most did! With props!), and we made wands as favors, as well as rheoscopic fluid potion bottles, dragon eggs, and all of the food (from our fandoms).

A vegan humanist UK rock and roll wedding (with Elvis and Riot Squad!)

Jess and Stokie Pete had that awesome combination of sublime forest backdrop and raucous rock and roll wedding. They performed Pagan rituals, a handfasting, and broom jumping at the gorgeous Mapperley Farm in Derbyshire followed by a vegan meal and a ton of dancing. That is, until Elvis Presley and Riot Squad arrived to rock everyone out.
