Real Weddings: Canada

Although we’re based in the United States, we feature a TON of Canadian weddings, especially Toronto and BC. Could it be because we’re no-so-secretly jealous of the less traditional wedding trends of our cousins to the north? Yes it could. Submit your wedding for consideration via offbeatwed.com/submissions.

Morgan & Nicole’s dreamy mountain wedding

Yep, we said “dreamy” and we mean it! Dreaming about those mountains, that lake, that EPIC hotel, and those two sexy-as-hell brides is just about the only thing that can be done after seeing it. Sure, they may have almost sunk into the lake, and maybe they hadn’t had tons of practice with PDA, but seriously, shit be worth it.
