Andrea & Patrick’s enchanted tiki and karaoke wedding

This couple wanted a super fun party at a bar with karaoke, a Bloody Mary bar, and even a unity tiki torch. They may have had to change their venue at the last moment, but with the help of friends, it was even better than expected. And if they were worried about guests being too shy to sing karaoke, boy were they wrong!

Clare & Alistair’s tons of hearts and a classic bus wedding

A gearhead groom and a non-traditional bride find common ground with a vintage-style bus to transport their guests from a sweet garden tea to a raucous bar after party. They totally recommend using alternative “non-wedding” vendors and finding DIY projects online, and it worked for them!

Darcy & Charles’ stripey vegan fancypunk wedding

Nom-worthy vegan food, tons of homemade desserts, a gender-blind wedding party covered in stripes, a wild-ass Hora, and perhaps the most excited-looking couple EVAR. That’s what’s in store here. Plus, their dog Lupin saved the day by rescuing the rings!
