Jessica & Eric’s West Coast music festival-meets-traditional wedding
A gown with gorgeous plumage, winged children, naughty ring bearers, and a leg lamp cake that actually lit up! If that isn’t enough to grab you, there were scantily clad performers covered in food. WUT! Oh, and see if you can spy a certain Offbeat Bride staffer among the guests. OH: there is also a slightly NSFW photo. Be warned (and titillated).
Katherine & Matthew’s tornado-threatened mix-and-match wedding
It rained and it poured on this poor outdoor wedding. But love persevered when they decided to get hitched come hell or high water. With the magic of friends and familial labor, an adorable book-filled breakfast room was made into a ceremony space. Along with their classy restaurant reception, it is easy to see even budget and weather can’t ruin a good time. (And don’t miss their son’s cameo at the ceremony!)
Melissa & James’ casual geeky awesomesauce Pi Day wedding
What we have here is a case of awesome wedding with should-I-use-Offbeat-Bride-inspiration guilt. I am totally glad that Melissa decided to embrace what she loves and utilize all of the resources available. Including us! So on this Pi Day of 3/14, join us in reading about a Pi Day wedding full of geekiness, sweetness, and of course, PIES!
Sam & Brian’s Jewish camp wedding by the lake
This pair met at summer camp and had the wedding at that same camp years later! So cute. Planning from a distance was a challenge, but with the help of their planner, the outdoor, twinkle lighted ceremony couldn’t have been sweeter. And the sunny summer camp setting made for some amazing shots!
