A “getting legalled” wedding sequel at the San Francisco Pride Parade

You might remember Meghan and Anne’s super fun log-cabin bagpipe-y wedding from a few years ago. And although they totally respected their wedding as, well, their wedding, they also wanted to take advantage of the benefits of getting legalled! So, right after the San Francisco Pride Parade in June, after they had finished playing with their bagpipe band, they headed over to City Hall to do the deed in all their parade finery.

Encourage guest-on-guest love with a “Makeout Nook”

We are firm believers that event decor is mostly about creating little experiences for guests. When it comes to weddings, what’s the emotion you most want your guests to experience? Well, it’s LOVE, of course… and love makes us feel like making out. That in mind, we absolutely adore this little “Makeout Nook” that Tribesmaid Steik created for her guests. What a great way to carve out a little loving space!

Bad-ass brides need an equally bad-ass cake: Xena meets Wonder Woman

Kim and Heather are lovers of Wonder Woman and Xena (as already evidenced by amazing ink!), but their Xena/Wonder Woman cake made by Heather herself… well, takes the cake (sad trombone). But seriously: the Greenville Children’s Museum venue in Greenville, SC, the two dresses, the sword cake cutting, the comic postcard guest book… it’s all a product of super powers, I’m sure of it.

This gradiated cake will make you need to change your metaphorical pants

Shh. No talking. Let’s just quietly bask in the sweet visual deliciousness of this green-to-blue gradiated cake. You can call it ombre if you’re into that kind of thing, I’m just going to call it the most gorgeous thing I’ve seen today, and go change my metaphorical pants, which I may have just metaphorically soiled.
