Kelsea & Henry’s Northwest garden party wedding
These free spirits wanted to show off their beloved Northwest scenery and atmosphere. They decided that Whidbey Island would be the perfect locale since both families have connections to the area and it’s where the groom proposed! With some greek food, lawn games, tons of community support, and a sweet pre-ceremony ring warming, this wedding is bound to pull some heartstrings.
Andie & Laurie’s Vaudevillian queer love extravaganza wedding
This performance-based costume wedding had two men of honor, a best lady, a wedding admiral, a ring master, a banjoist and baladeer, a celebrity Lutheran pastor, a Drag Queen Mistress of Ceremonies (who performed a Barbie rendition of Steel Magnolias), and a Dolly Parton flash mob dance (animated for your pleasure). There’s lot of eye candy and some insightful philosophizing too.
An elegant gothic Iron Chef wedding
As someone who has never really adhered to the concept of “gender” and felt like I fall somewhere on the scale between tomboy and androgynous, I was surprised to find planning for my wedding made me feel unexpectedly girly. I fought it for a little while, but eventually decided to just go with it. Wearing makeup and doing my hair for one day didn’t make me a new person, it was just the side of me that decided to pop out for the occasion.
Emily & Jordan’s fly-fishing and cookies English teacher wedding
We were entranced by this bride’s cookie bouquet and demanded to see MOAR! Thankfully, she obliged and gave us this amazing mountainside budget wedding with little touches of fly-fishing, homebrew, eco-friendly details, and even a fingerprint fish!
