A queer bourbon and beer bacchanal: it’s fab drunken gay glamour

The title alone is enough to make me salivate over this bourbon-filled queer drunken gay glamour wedding. These two are ADORABLE and know exactly how to have a killer time dancing, dranking, and making sweet moments in their Pagan ceremony. Don’t miss how the wedding party went from strangers to BFFs dancing in a tub together in zero time flat.

A real time ring tattoo at this goth Utah wedding on Friday the 13th

Let’s set the scene: a glam black dress, a dapper long-locked groom, a Friday the 13th wedding, all in Utah. The bride, Stephanie, is a tattoo artist and even inked the wedding band on her groom Larry’s finger right after the ceremony. It was a hugely DIYed affair in a stunning venue filled with paper roses (made from pages of anatomy books and sheet music!) and hints of darkness among tons of light. Let’s gaze at this chic meets goth Utah wedding.

This junk shop rodeo wedding slays with country meets glam style

The multi-hued hair, the awesomely eclectic venue, the super glam and gorgeous couple — this two-ceremony wedding is the perfect combination of vintage style and glamorous visuals. If you’re a more private couple, you definitely want to see how they split up their ceremony.

Be swept away by this ethereal winter shoot on Mt. Rainier

Did you say you wanted to see something breathtaking today? I’ve got something that will burn your eyes with beauty. Kendyl and Kiley are a seriously fabulous couple who wanted an equally fabulous photo shoot to celebrate their 2014 Justice of the Peace wedding in Washington. There was a winter weather advisory on Mt. Rainer the day of the shoot and they were set to get two feet of snow. Thankfully, Mother Nature handed them only a dusting that made the shoot ethereal as hell.
