A swing dance wedding on an island (with a Bitcoin unity ceremony!)

A purple mane, a swing dance theme, and lots of little elements of this pair like Futurama, Scrabble, Burning Man, and bunnies. Get ready for moonlit boat rides, a bonfire, and of course, a swing dance-themed first dance complete with hula hoops. But the most intriguing part was their Bitcoin Blockchain unity ceremony. Now that’s a first for us!

Rustic country wedding as seen on @offbeatbride

A rustic country wedding with an old-fashioned ho-down

Andrea and Steve were inspired by their own way of life when they planned their rustic country wedding. They gorgeously combined a formal, black tie event with a huge family jamboree and old fashioned ho-down. Everyone was encouraged to come with a musical instrument and the drive to rock out. They both come from families who love jam nights and réveillons, so the ho-down was simply back to basics for this music-loving crowd.

Geek chic Dungeons & Dragons meets a traditional Jewish ceremony

Dragon cake toppers, a giant D20, ring bearer teddy bears (who rocked the dance floor!), and a gorgeous traditional Jewish ceremony with a few added elements that made it personalized. This traditional meets geek wedding combines everything we covet. Just wait until you see the battle between Guilder and Florin at the reception!

S'mores bar at this Battlestar Galactica meets forest wedding as seen on @offbeatbride

Andrea & Chris’ nature meets Battlestar Galactica wedding (with ship centerpieces!)

These two are both huge Battlestar Galactica fans, so there were lots of fun references: ship place settings, “so say we all” blessing, and wedding party cufflinks. Oh, and you may need new pants after you see the immaculate glass and wood gazebo-style reception space among the leaves of a truly gorgeous forest.
