Erin & Matt’s crafty music-inspired quirky wedding

There is some serious music loving going on here and it shows in all of the awesome song choices and self-DJing. This pair also loves DIY and specifically knitting, which led them to craft tons of knitted details including their cake topper, bouquets, and hair flowers. And you just might love the bride’s gorgeous green gown!

Chayla & Corey’s gothic garden wedding

Sometimes you have too many interests to smoosh into one wedding. Such was the case with this Aussie wedding in a lush garden. Though they ran into a few problems with vendor communication, you’d never know it by the end result. Enjoy this lovely, stylized wedding (with a bonus legal wedding!).

Roz & Pete’s humanists loving doughnuts and Prince wedding

This couple loves Krispy Kremes, books, vintage cameras, and each other. Do you want to be their BFFs yet? They had two ceremonies (one being of the humanist persuasion), an epic candy buffet, and dress-up costumes for the reception resulting in much hilariousness. The coincidental ceremony mishap is pretty funny too.
