DonnaMarie & Ricky’s unholy union and heavy metal cabaret wedding
These metal heads know how to rock. They also know how to make an amazing heavy metal cabaret afterparty on a budget. Board games, ear plugs, lighters, and metal horns were required and provided. Oh, and you’re going to going to freak over the most awesome light-up Ghostbusters cake evar!
Jennifer & Rick’s romantic candlelit Daft Punk music wedding
When you meet at Coachella and share a passion for music, it’s only right to honor it with a rockin’ after-party featuring all the music from the concerts you’ve seen. Add in some band name table numbers, glow sticks, Ring Pops, and a Daft Punk cake, and these guests were ready to dance. But not before an ultra-romantic candlelit ceremony!
Use custom wine labels to save money on your wedding booze… covertly!
For our wine we bought eight cases of Trader Joe’s Two-Buck Chuck (four cases of chardonnay, two merlot, two cabernet sauvignon), took off the labels, and slapped on our own. So any self-described “wine snobs” at our event wouldn’t get uptight. Since we constantly remove labels and stick new ones on for our home-brewed beer, I have a couple quick tips for anyone pulling the ol’ switcheroo to save major dollars on the bar.
Hanneke & Laurens’ relaxed Dutch botanical garden wedding
After having to postpone the wedding for health reasons, these two Dutch grad students pulled together their laid-back party with surprise folk dances, interactive games and quizzes, and loads of DIY with friends and family. They also had a gorgeous botanical garden as the backdrop, but only five minutes of sunshine was found the whole day!
