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!

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!

Stephanie & Joyce’s Rat Pack meets modern soiree wedding

This pair traverses a limited guest list, interfaith considerations, and late-night loud music ordinances. But you’d never be able to tell that there were any hurdles by everyone’s faces. Though they ran into some rough patches with major wind and some staff turnover at their venue, their positive attitudes are models for peaceful planning!
