Champagne Sparkle Getaway Kiss Lock Purse alternative wedding ideas from Offbeat Wed (formerly Offbeat Bride)

Wedding clutches to flatter your wedding day white knuckles

OMG you guys, DEVIATION! For the first time since 2011, I’m doing a Friday post not about shoes… but about CLUTCHES. Some friends gave me an adorable little mini-purse clutch thing as a wedding day gift, but since I had an outdoor freakfest run around in ribbon falls dancing in the groves kind of wedding, I didn’t really use it. This missed opportunity gives me a perfect excuse to ogle the clutches that might have been… had I clutched a clutch, and clutched.

As always, these prices range from “Oh cute, buy one for each of your bridesmaids” to “What, that’s my entire wedding budget, ha ha, but wow that thing is amazing.” Also, you do get a very romantic and cute bonus shoe.

Lauren & Vaughn’s Mennonite kid-friendly farm wedding

This wedding will have a lot of fans: kids, chickens, color lovers, singers, and of course…. US! You’ve got hymn singing, Indian food, and what I’m going to excitedly describe as a Nickelodeon slime unity ceremony! It’s all wrapped up in a big ol’ barn in pretty sunset land. Just watch out for the bride’s dad and uncle lighting the fireworks with a blow torch. Dudes got wild.

Beth & Garrett’s nerdy boozy musical kickballer wedding

Home-brewed beer (including beer ceremony), an Elvis officiant, a hilarious camp wedding guide, and a cocktail hour with lawn games and merit badges — you’ve just described my perfect camp-out party. Don’t even get us started on the tearful first look, the Sharpie pre-tattoo rings, the dads’ pre-ceremony chest bump, and the time-traveling video invitation. Oh, and there’s one more video that we’re keeping a secret. Trust me, you have to see it.
