Melanie & Justin’s colourful carnival love affair wedding
This couple is known to throw major ragers, and this wedding had to top them all. The order of the day was carnival: popcorn, lemonade, games, candy, and ten confetti canons at the ceremony. It’s weddings like these that make me want to cut out and hit the midway.
Amy & Jess’ glittery rustic barn wedding
Take one adorably crazy cat man with awesome hair, one Rubik’s cube-teaching bride, lots of helpful yoga-performing and cupcake tier-fixing friends and family, and a weekend of activities, and you’ll get a wedding I want to have attended. Sadly, I didn’t, but we can relive the events with wistful eyes and share in the joy that is a wedding with puzzle place cards and crossword programs.
Sarah & Rhett’s 1930s Art Deco winter wedding
1939 was the backdrop for this romantic wedding with a Quaker ceremony. With tons of flowers, immaculate decor, and a fabulous venue, it is easy to see the love that went into the planning. Plus, the reception had era-appropriate cocktails that seemed to make people ready to party — even the bride’s mom. This era-inspired theme week is rocking my world!
Amanda & Jose’s DIY superhero wedding
A love of DIY and a love of comic book superheros was just the start of the planning for this party. Deciding on a live band was a compromise that paid off. Plus, they said their vows in the same church Amanda’s grandmother attended and in which her great-great-grandparents were married. Aww!
Robots and ivy at this pagan handfasting wedding
These two love robots, so they included lots of robot-y references in their Pagan handfasting. Sounds like a perfect combination to me. Add in the custom-made purple silk gown and ivy headband and you’ll get sucked in. Plus, they had a choreographed first dance which looked like a hoot and a half.
Wildflowers and farmland at this clifftop wedding in Wisconsin
Instead of feeling like a wedding, the goal was “first family reunion.” And after finding an awesome farm locale with hay rides and lawn games, the potluck dessert and flowers came naturally to finish off the event. Despite planning from a state away, these two found help in their friends and family to pull it off. Put on your farm boots and check it out.
