Two brides had the sweetest DIY farm wedding you’ll have seen yet
B + Liz are a rad couple who totally rocked an amazing, simple, and sweet-as-hell DIY farm wedding in Maryland. Every part of their day was filled with love and made to include everyone.
Check out this awesomeness. They got ready quietly together on the farm owned by a family friend. They had friends contribute to a collaborative playlist of music. And Liz’s mom baked EVERY ONE of those cupcakes. It was truly a community effort backed by a whole lot of love. Don’t miss Liz’s retro-styled pink hair, sweet sequined gown, B’s KILLER suit, and the farm animals grazing all around…
A goth meets nerd meets glam wedding with on-site ring tattoos
We had an overall gothic Halloween wedding, with comic and hockey-themed aspects. Our short ceremony had music by the Smiths, The Cure, and Type O Negative, as well as an officiant dressed as a friar. The ceremony highlighted with nerdy themes including, but not limited to, X-Men, Star Wars, Stardust, Princess Bride, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and Lord of the Rings.
Blue hair and baseball caps? All perfect for this Victorian with a twist wedding
Our wedding was our own style for sure. I have always loved vintage and Victorian styles. But to give it a twist, I have blue hair! Mark also goes nowhere without his baseball cap. So I said wear it! He did and I felt it was perfect for us. Being on a very tight budget, we had lots of DIY from seating charts, favors, and table numbers. It was Victorian with a twist!
Roll for initiative at this gamer’s dream geek chic wedding
The D&D geek theme started because I had the thought to myself, "you have encountered a wedding ceremony — roll for initiative." We both thought it was funny, and it sort of spiraled from there that all of our favorite nerdy things could be incorporated.
A glam & rustic Friday the 13th wedding
Kevin and I wanted to make sure our wedding was a representation of ourselves. We had planned on having the wedding in October once we got engaged and when we discovered there was a Friday the 13th in October 2017, we knew it was meant to be. Our wedding was Friday the 13th inspired with a dark yet natural vibe. The Codman Estate was the perfect mix of stunning natural scenery and modern convenience (bathrooms inside!). I wore a black dress (my dream) that I got at Macy's for under $150 which was a bonus for a thrifty maven.
Stars meets nature: a subtly geeky lakeside wedding with DIY for days
We combined our love for nature and the stars into a theme that came very easily for us. It helped that we found a venue that was the perfect setting to view the beauty of nature, as well as get a great view of the stars at night. To further our theme, I wanted to add a bit of a fantasy element so I decided to add subtle details that drew from Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, both of which we're big fans.
