We love us some Halloween week, but we couldn’t resist this Dia de los Muertos wedding, too! Sugar skulls, colorful decor at a fab Mexican restaurant… oh, and more sugar skulls! Grab yourself a margarita and check out this adorable hair-styling couple and their Mexican-American wedding love fest.
A small town, small chapel, huge love South African wedding
Conny and Felix are Germans living in Sydney, Australia who love Cape Town, South Africa. Got it so far? Conny’s mother lives in the nearby small town of McGregor and hosted this gorgeous party for the pair after their official ceremony in Germany. And boy, was the scenery alone worth the travel! Watercolor-faded mountain lines in the horizon, a sweet little chapel underneath a canopy of trees, and ocean blue stained glass… paradise!
Jenna & Scott’s dinos, Dorothy, and DeLoreans oh my! wedding
Dinos, Dorothy, and DeLoreans?! Yep, we’ve got an awesome natural history museum full of dinosaurs, ruby red Dorothy slippers, and Back to the Future in their trivia game. OH, and don’t let me forget the EPIC DeLorean cake! It will make your ’80s-loving day. Plus, you’ll love how they chose their wedding date. Spoiler: it was to make one of them right!
How can I make sure guests please DON’T stand for the Bride?
One of the unspoken wedding traditions that drives me nuts is when everyone stands up for the bride. I know it’s an old tradition and it’s a respect thing (or something like that. I’m not totally positive of the background). But why just for the Bride? Is anyone planning/have you seen anyone address this? Do you ask the guests to remain seated? Do you ask them to stand as the groom comes down the aisle?
