Kat & Scott’s gamer geek gathering (with a side of wedding)

This pair knows how to play to their audience: board games, Rock Band, and gamer references all over this joint. They even have D6 cake pops! You’ll also love the sweet ending to the tale of a nervous brother and his ring warming duty. This is one kick-ass geekfest for gamers and those who love them.

Fairy swords, a woodsy tablescape, and a Snowy Mountain stroll

Tribesmaid Laurasonja and her groom got married in the Snowy Mountains, making for some truly epic, wintry photos like this one. There were also some snazzy “fairy swords,” bad-ass bridesmaids, and some woodsy decor in the reader submissions this week.

Black sparkling shoes for your noire wedding

My shoe posts almost always focus on shoes that are either A) loud, like I wear ’em or B) pale, like the majority of brides wear ’em. I almost never include shoes that are brown or black because sometimes they can feel too “daily wear” and not WEDDING-Y enough. I guess if I’mma go non-traditional, I opt toward my own candy-colored tastes, instead of the shoes that are just like my heart: black and sparkling.

So today, in honor of all brides goth, noire, and just a little bit dark-hearted, I’m going to focus on the glittery black pumps and flats.
