Vanessa & Mando’s rose that took 13 years to bloom wedding

Wearing mom’s dress from the ’70s, bearing roses and the look of love, these two celebrated 13 years together by making it official. Add in classic cars, some DIY (program fans and caramel apples!), and a sweet rose theme, and this is an offbeat lite wedding that makes me squee.

Michelle & Adric’s adventure in ancient ruins wedding

Mayan ruins, a luscious deep blue corseted gown, a dashing groom who saves the ceremony… this is a wedding to savor. It practically teleports you to Belize and their amazing resort. Just watch out for the bride’s grandmother… she might tell you the real, naughty name of your drink!

Amber & Trey’s nerdy love pop culture wedding

These two couldn’t imagine having a personalized wedding without including what they love: Firefly, Harry Potter, Buffy, and X-Men! Even their newly chosen last name is an homage of a favorite character! And for a couple who is seriously camera-shy, they sure know how to work it!

Stacy & Jeff’s backyard masquerade glam wedding

When life takes away your venue, you take back the party… in your backyard! This couple wanted a kick-ass masquerade ball and they had it… masks, feathers, glam decor and all. The bride also had a network of people who helped them save money and DIY. Crisis averted.
