bearded groom

We firmly believe that no groom should have to shave for his wedding. Grooms with beards are awesome! Short, long, bushy, stubbly… BRING ON THE GROOM BEARDS!

A vintage Halloween spooky wedding

A vintage-inspired Halloween wedding ball (with classic horror movie photo booths!)

Christina and Edward adore Halloween, and combined a meaningful ceremony with a grand Halloween wedding ball like pros. There were huge replicas of vintage monster movie posters, old black and white monster movies, and tons of costumes.

Whatever you do, don’t miss the life-size caskets built by the couple’s families that had life-sized bride and groom skeletons inside and a sign that read, “Till Death Do Us Part Is For Quitters.” HA!

A camping wedding in the woods

A summer solstice glamping elopement in the redwoods

Amanda and Josh moved across the country to the Seattle area from the East Coast, and made a point to explore the forests and scenery. They wanted to include nature by having a “glamping” elopement in the redwoods with a long day spent in each other’s company before exchanging personal vows. And to make that day as long as possible, they got married on the longest day of the year: the summer solstice!

An inked, glam, and industrial woodland wedding at the Carrie Furnaces in Pittsburgh

An inked, glam, and woodland-meets-industrial wedding at the Carrie Furnaces in Pittsburgh

Heather and Sean’s inked style is easy to love, just like their industrial-inspired wedding at an awesome Pittsburgh venue, an abandoned steel mill. Towering 92 feet over the Monongahela River, the Carrie Furnaces are a historical landmark and rare example of pre-World War II iron-making technology.

The flowers are lush, the hair and makeup is immaculate, and the dichotomy of the woodland details in the steel space is the BEST. Look out for the animals masks, flowery shoes, and amazing love…

Gold sequins and golden light at this Oregon beach wedding

Gold sequins and golden light at this Oregon coast wedding

Megan and Alex’s Oregon coast wedding had Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach, OR (the Goonies rock in Cannon Beach) as the spectacular backdrop. There’s a stunning gold sequined dress, a dapper burgundy suit, flower crowns, a beautiful beachside ceremony, and some of the most gorgeously lit shots we’ve ever seen.

Ready yourself for a glorious engagement shoot with vivid colors

Ready yourself for a carnal engagement shoot with vivid colors

Christina and Travis had a sexy carnal engagement shoot in Michigan with seriously rich colors (including Christine’s hair!). Plus that golden hour lake backdrop is like being in Ferngully.

The mermaid ink, that dress, the beard porn, the loveliness of these two… this is serious engagement goodness. Let’s bask in them, shall we?

LB1 6794 alternative wedding ideas from Offbeat Wed (formerly Offbeat Bride)

This wedding is like if David Lynch filmed The Addams Family ballroom scene (you’ll want to see!)

“The initial concept was: what if David Lynch was to film the ballroom scene from the Addams Family movie and the only cinematographer available was Xavier Pérez Grobet (Nacho Libre)?” Yep, this wedding had STYLE… and aerialists, contortionists, a cake with a terrarium in the middle, excellent vintage fashion, and so much personality. You’ll want to see it as much as you wanted to see its inspiration…
