Rock ‘n’ roll meets forest fairy magic at this Canadian masquerade wedding

Just wait until you see the explosion of killer style at Jocelyn and Julian’s wedding at Devonian Gardens in Calgary: the bride’s undercut style with green highlights (that match her green cape!), her grey gradient dress with silver corset by [heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/kmkdesigns"]KMKDesigns[/heart], the groom’s matching grey suit, the masquerade theme, and the “I just want you” cake topper. It’s a Canadian masquerade wedding that is making our lives.

A real time ring tattoo at this goth Utah wedding on Friday the 13th

Let’s set the scene: a glam black dress, a dapper long-locked groom, a Friday the 13th wedding, all in Utah. The bride, Stephanie, is a tattoo artist and even inked the wedding band on her groom Larry’s finger right after the ceremony. It was a hugely DIYed affair in a stunning venue filled with paper roses (made from pages of anatomy books and sheet music!) and hints of darkness among tons of light. Let’s gaze at this chic meets goth Utah wedding.

Try to survive this haunted castle wedding without dying of love

Reema loves skulls and Derek is a hard core Chiver (Bill Murray fan). They decided to take their show on the road to a haunted castle in Ireland. Reema custom-designed her skull wedding ring and coffin ring box, created her own earrings and necklace, and even her wedding dress was custom designed to match her goth tendencies. The music reflected their rock and metal tastes with some “Stairway To Heaven” and a choir version of “Nothing Else Matters.” Add in some Dr. Seuss, a handfasting, and a rose ceremony, and you’ve topped off this skulls meets Bill Murray haunted castle wedding.

Poe and rock wedding as seen on @offbeatbride

Once upon a midnight dreary, we fell for this Poe wedding

Tamara and Sam’s theme is seriously one of our favorites: “rock ‘n’ Poe” — all things Edgar Allen Poe meets rock ‘n’ roll. They DIYed a lot of the goth details, and dinner was a breakfast bar. Between the fabulous black gown (which was actually billed as a “mother of the bride dress” — wut), the killer groom outfit and epic beard, and the black and white lace cake, we love this wedding with a love that’s more than a love. Okay, no more Poe quotes, I promise.

A Vegas destination elopement on a rooftop at twilight

Kendra and Spencer had a rooftop wedding at twilight in Downtown Vegas with neon light backdrop. So glamorous, so shiny! This Vegas destination elopement featured the bride’s black and white gown, the groom’s chic black suit, florals from Flora Pop (and their tear drop trailer!), and the Vegas sunset. Let’s peek at how it all went down, including their first shared donut as a married couple.
