A sunny picnic wedding with lawn games and love

[vendor-heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/carly-bish-photography"]Carly Bish[/vendor-heart] sent over this stunning, sun-soaked picnic wedding and we ate it up. But when we found out that it was held at her childhood home, we knew it was really special to her. See, Carly’s brother married Kristin. Kristin’s sister, Chaitra (the bride), met and married one of Carly’s brother’s best friends since childhood, Ryan (the groom). So their meeting (and loving) was inevitable. Sweet story aside, let’s get on to the deets: lots of DIY decor, handmade fascinators, picnic blankets as reception tables, lawn games, ribbon wands (perfect for the nearby kitteh)… it’s your own virtual vacation.

Brenda & Julio’s video game wedding

Sonic the Hedgehog blue and Yoshi green are in every facet of this gamer wedding. The drinks — yoshi-tini anyone? — the cufflinks, the escort cards, the card box…. it’s all got a bit of the Sonic the Hedgehog blue and Yoshi green, and a LOT of the AWESOME.

Why you should elope and/or party down with Seattle wedding photographer Jenny GG

We love wedding photographer Jenny GG! And not just because she hails from Ariel’s hometown of Seattle, or because she’s been a sponsor since 2009(!), but mostly because she’s super-amazeballs talented and always produces fabulous wedding porn. Let’s all take a minute to look over some of her latest fabulous wedding porn (including a photo I can NOT STOP staring at), remember again why we love her so, AND talk about her new Offbeat Bride discount…

Kim & Doug’s artsy food truck wedding

One look at this pair’s food truck menu and you’ll be converted to the dark (and delicious) side: a street food wedding! The gourmet sliders and fries were served in front of a chic gallery that played host to the ceremony and reception. They stayed within budget with a few sneaky cost-savers, and you’ll love the bride’s favorite moments with her dad!
