Our hearts are black and blue from this goth fantasy wedding
Royal blue and black details, a black dragon cake, the bride’s corseted dream gown, and tons of steampunk, goth, and Victorian-inspired garb on the guests — it’s a stunning goth fantasy wedding. Don’t miss the heavy metal soundtrack ideas, the poetry readings, and the dark, dreamy, mysterious DIYed decor.
The first rule of this boxing match wedding: tell everyone!
Brisbane, Australia natives Christine and Kieron took a raucous route with their wedding by having a “Fight Night”-themed ceremony in a boxing ring. There was a whole lot of trash-talking, naughty jokes, and banter througout. The bout was officiated by Annie Grace Ceremonies and Dave Eller, Fight MC, and thankfully ended in a draw.
You’ll swoon over how these ladies danced into their ceremony
Mary and Emily had been together for ten years waiting for gay marriage to be legalized. Three days after the ban was overturned, Mary called Emily’s mom to ask for her hand in marriage. Her mom’s response was, “Well, it’s about time.” Our favorite part was how they danced into the ceremony that ended with their guests forming a half circle around them.

Darkly romantic black wedding shoes [UPDATED for 2022!]
My shoe posts usually focus on shoes that are loud, or at the very least boldly colorful, or if not that, then maybe wedding-y. I almost never include shoes that are black because sometimes I worry maybe they’re not bridal enough.

These mohawked rockabilly wedding ladies took a DIYed wedding by storm… literally
Stacie and Crystal were married in Oklahoma, but had their public rockabilly wedding ceremony and reception at a friend’s home in Wichita Falls, TX. Their families and friends had a hand in everything — from officiating, to music, to venue, to cakes, to food, to decorating, it was a homemade-with-love affair. At the end, it was all toasts and cake and smooching… then tornado sirens from all of the bad weather they’d been having. Hey, it probably means good luck, right? Let’s get a load of this mohawked, fabulously coiffed, and stylish pair.

Tiffany and Jeremy had a Halloweentown meets Nightmare Before Christmas meets Las Vegas wedding with some killer fashion, as you can see. We decided to take an extended look at their winged, striped, sequined, red-all-over garb that is seriously SLAYING. Glob we don’t get to use the wedding wings enough as far as I’m concerned.
