Joey & Wade’s crowdsourced zombie wedding

Get your candy out because it’s Halloween Week! We’ve got zombies, ghosts, and gore in our weddings. This time around it’s a couple who met at a Zombie Walk, so the theme was inevitable. Zombies, natch, but also an Elvis minister and a unicorn ring bearer! Plus, the officiant started the ceremony with “Brains. Brains brains brains brains brains.” A total must-read.

Anne & Stew’s happy hippie hoedown cross-country wedding

This pair had a sweet, tiny redwood forest elopement, but it didn’t end there. They then went on an cross-country party marathon with all of their family and friends in New Jersey, NYC, Texas, and California! Think Austin hokey-tonk bar, Jewish deli catering, a Deadhead-inspired barn dance, and a special guest: Mel the CAMEL. You have to see it to believe it.

‘Stina & Graham’s DIY country ranch wedding

This pair tackled tons of DIY projects, battled some very inconsistent weather, and had to cater a party in the middle of the country. But you’d never know these were even challenges when you see the awesome Mexican catering, the cool ambiance (event producer groom FTW!), and the lovely weather. These photos give off one theme more than any other: FUN.
