Dinosaur topiaries and punk rock shoes at this museum wedding

Devon and Faith had their wedding at the Los Angeles Natural History Museum, which meant lots of dinosaur and prehistoric details (including dino topiaries!). Faith wore an amazing black gown, sexy mesh booties, and birdcage veil. The ceremony was officiated by Devon’s father and was held in front of the museum’s dinosaur display. It also included an a capella version of Pixie’s “Velouria.”

Kristen and Charlie threw their own kind of rock wedding including a live band, lots of tattoos, and a piñata at The Bell House in Brooklyn, NY. Charlie’s band played, Kristen wore black, and everyone rocked out.

Dinos, giant pencils, and a Silly String ambush at this Melbourne wedding

Ben and Heidi are laid-back people and wanted their mid-day lunch wedding to reflect that. And with a black dress, super-charged red hair, dinosaur decor, and a giant pencil for the guest book, it was also really quirky and fun. I love that combination.
