Beth & Matt’s interfaith garden wedding in the trees
Offbeat Brides have been submitting lots of gorgeous woodsy weddings, so we’ve compiled a few of our favorites in a forest theme week including this offbeat lite wedding in the round with a serenading groom and a surprise couple kidnapping!
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!
Avoid wedding day memory loss: How to slow down and actually remember your wedding
Everyone tells me to make sure to “slow down and take everything in” on your wedding day — but no one says how to actually accomplish it!
How can I make sure I take a minute to stop and smell the roses on the day of my wedding? 100 guests, all those decorations, all that shit to do. How can I make sure I take a second to slow down?
Paisley & Dougie’s crafty picnic nerdstravaganza wedding
Dungeons & Dragons, sci-fi vows, games, the Time Warp… it’s a geek’s paradise! After finding the venue by putting a note on the door, these two planned a local garden wedding to whet every gamer’s appetite. And don’t think this bride isn’t up for the challenge when she forgets her vows at home!
An opulent multi-day HinJew wedding
When we were sent this San Francisco wedding, I was gobsmacked first by its amazingness and second by its enormity! There is so much to absorb here. It was lovingly dubbed by the party as the “HinJew” wedding since bride Ruchira is Indian and groom Dave is Jewish! You have to see all the facets of the multi-day celebration including the performances, the decor, and the insanely huge hora!
