A forest masquerade handmade wedding
This bride’s DIY skills are MAD! She made so many of the outfits including her own black and white striped, purple reception gown (which fit amazingly well into their masquerade-themed reception!). Don’t miss the paper flower decor, the forest-y venue, the sexiest boots, and the tiniest aisle-walker ever!
Lizbeth & Rip’s friendor-fueled dive bar wedding
With an unofficial theme of “friends helping out,” you can just imagine how much everything must have meant to this pair. Feel the lurve! Plus, they had awesome, philanthropic tamales at their favorite dive bar to end the celebration. And an interesting lesson was learned, too: sometimes trying too hard to avoid stress actually ends up being stressful in itself!
Rosie & Kerry’s fantastical fairytale costume wedding
You guys, this wedding has got what you need: handmade Victorian garb, lolita bridesmaid dresses, a magician who performs a Punch and Judy show, and tons of costumes, including one Dobby the house elf! These theatrical folks know how to party, fantastic fairytale-style! Plus, this bride has some sage advice about taking on a lot of DIY projects.
Melissa & Scott’s atypical Southern Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em celebration
This Southern bride, her Southern family, and her Southern groom can tell you that we’re not all the cowboy boot-wearing girls depicted on TV and not all of our weddings look like a scene from Steel Magnolias. And in this wedding, it looks like FUN! Board games (including Mystery Date!), a Low Country Boil, a grown-up flower girl, and a pretty sweet processional make this a whole other ball game.
Alison & Nicolas’ Irish music, dancing, and DIY wedding in a barn
When we feature weddings with barns AND tentacle content in one week, it can only mean it’s BARN–ACLE WEEK! Today we’ve got a pair of Irish musicians doing what they do best: jamming with pals in an epic music fest!
Bagpipes, redwoods, and fiddles at this Big Sur Pi Day wedding
We love seeing couples get married on Pi Day, but Jeanne and Nick took it one step further and had the ceremony begin at 1:59, making their anniversary an even longer form of the abridged number: 3.14159! Jeanne walked in to bagpipes and let her fab Black Milk leggings peek out as she walked toward the ceremony. And then we got to see the first of many photos of Nick’s expression that make me swoon.
