HURRY UP I WANT CAKE
These mini members of Kathleen and her groom’s wedding party have needs too, guys. It was a pretty adorable way to add some levity and get the kids involved. The sign behind this ones says, “Hey Uncle Tommy, here comes your bride!” In addition to this bit of sweetness in the reader submissions, we’ve got some actual cake (with geeky toppers!), a handfasting with lovely herb centerpieces, and a fair few awesome wedding party shots.
A leaf-peeping couple weds during Vermont’s fall foliage season
Ann and Penny had been together for 22 years before they finally tied the knot in a fall foliage-inspired wedding. They met at a leaf-peeping, so a wedding during the peak of Vermont’s leaf color changes was perfect. They celebrated the season with a leaf-decorated cake and some colorful rainbow decor.
Cristina & Adrian’s colorful, lesbian, vegan night of fun
These two put the hot pink in pinky swear, and I mean HOT. The crafty duo included lots of personal details — duct tape bouquets, vegan noms, bright ties, toys, a puppy, and science! All to celebrate a steamy romance surrounded by family and friends… with a sweet surprise translation of a favorite love song. Aww, now they’ve put the aw in hawt, too!
A sweet barn wedding with a string band
Maggie and Theresia made almost all of the decor themselves including all of the tablecloths, bunting, and book centerpieces. Friends made their cake and each of their grandmas made cookies. One of their favorite memories was when their friends, who had formed a band and practiced for weeks for this event, performed “Home” by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.
