A metalhead boat cruise wedding with headbanging and battle-axes

Now that’s a first for us!

An ode to wedding booze canoes

You know why I love Offbeat Bride readers? Because it’s completely NOT uncommon for y’all to fill up an entire boat with fucking alcohol. Like, that’s just a thing you people do now. Even one of our own staffers did this at her wedding! Gawd luv ya.
