Kat & Earl’s handmade movie geek Disney-inspired wedding

Tradition meets tons of personalization with this Disney and movie-themed wedding. We’re talking illustrations from favorite movies, Disney centerpieces, 3D cut-outs, and lots of elements from their signature styles. It was both a dry wedding and a no-dancing wedding, but with Truth or Dare Jenga, scavenger hunts, a photo booth, and a gelato bar, there was no shortage of super-fun-ness. And just wait until you read the bride’s favorite moment. It’s like you’re there!
