Match your glasses to your gown

Tribesmaid Staciafuchsia rocks her purple-over-white gown and giant bouquet, but my favorite part is her matchy-matchy glasses! If you’ll be wearing your specs to the wedding, consider grabbing a special pair to really pull your outfit together.

Pretty vintage wedding accessories: capelets, gloves, headpieces, and more!

I normally focus my Friday posts on alternative wedding shoes, today I think I’m going to spend some time with vintage wedding accessories.

Part of wanting to spend some time with them is just that the pictures are so dang pretty. I love this aesthetic… vintage-y, romantic, lovely. It’s just so dang pretty.

Noir and gothic: black dresses with a dark side

It’s Halloween week at Offbeat Bride and one detail we especially love is an amazing black dress. We love them all year round, but smooshing them into one big post just screams goth Halloween-ness. We’ve rounded up our favorite Offbeat Brides sporting black gowns and some of our favorites to buy if you’re in the market.

Top your noggin with a wilder-style yarmulke

Yarmulkes (or kippahs) are caps worn on the head, typically by those of Jewish faith. For those able to wear something a little more daring, I present these alternative (and sometimes out there) yarmulkes for our offbeat Jewish weddings.
