A majestic Irish castle wedding with death metal & sword-bearing protectors
We both love castles and Irish history, and Craig wanted to have a death metal band play, so we found somewhere where that was possible, and arranged everything around that. We didn’t have a specific theme, but the castle definitely inspired some elements of our wedding. We decided to include our two swords in the day as there is a Viking tradition to exchange swords at your wedding as a promise to protect each other.

Here are some of my favorite wedding capes, offbeat-style..
Winter is coming: a Game of Thrones winter wedding in Atlanta
Jessi and Moose got married in the mountains of Georgia, on a Wednesday in December, to celebrate the Winter Solstice. Moose is a chef, so he and his friends went to farmers markets to buy all of the ingredients for the food, and then their friends in the industry cooked it for everyone that weekend. Jessi revamped her mom’s wedding dress to wear and it looked AMAZING.
Best part? Their wedding was Game of Thrones-inspired, partly due to the fact that the couple and many of their friends attend renaissance faires and events regularly. Don’t miss the epic capes, swords, and wintry flower crown!

Badass winter wedding woollies that won’t kill your style vibe
We’ve featured some lovely winter wedding woollies for cold wedding days, but there were a lot of white, pinks, and overall prettiness that just isn’t for everyone. What if you’re less snow queen and more snow VALKYRIE?! There are a whole lot of options for a darker, more badass look while you’re tromping through the snow or chill.
From sleek black shawls to fantasy capes to long leather gloves, these aren’t your average winter wedding accessories…
