Adri & Bobby’s damask riverboat wedding

A little bit vintage, a little bit classy, a little bit rock ‘n’ roll, and a little bit Jerry Springer. Can I get a hallellujah up in here!? Add in some DIY, a sun dance miracle, and a 96-year-old grandpa who kicks ass and takes names.

Dawn & Chris’ belly dancing colorful beach wedding

An ocean cake, sea salt favors, and a lifesaver ring guest book make for an amazing beach-y wedding. But add in breakfast-for-dinner, some track-suited studs, and a stunning multi-colored dress and you’re in for one fantastic wedding. But really, I’m here for the ring monkey and belly dancing. Don’t deny you are too!
