Angel & Candi’s self-catered vegetarian wedding

Gothic and sarcastic weds bubbles and sunshine, and it’s not without its challenges. But these two ladies manage to pull together a self-catered vegetarian feast in a colorful space all on a budget, because one is crafty and the other can cook! It sounds like a match to me.

Kelsey & Meghan’s classic happy-sappy wedding

These two ladies decided early on that priorities were key and they wouldn’t be going into debt from the wedding. And they were able to pull together a lovely ceremony and dancefest reception (with s’mores!). You might also never guess that the bride’s two dresses and all the dresses in the wedding party were handmade, too!
