Natasha & Jordan’s Roaring Twenties theater wedding

This retro ’20s bash was held in a theater, had three headpiece changes (my kind of girl), and eclectic music (including a ceremony serenade from the bride’s father’s band!). And get ready to get a toothache from the tutu flower girls and kids reading Shel Silverstein at the ceremony. PLUS: a 1920s-themed photo booth makes everyone era-ready!

Cailey & Christian’s 1950s BBQ saloon wedding

Only three vendors and a whole lot of economizing didn’t make this budget wedding any less awesome. Other cool details including tag-team officiants (at a really pretty church), handpainted wooden cake toppers, and a groom who is a little too nervous for long vows. Plus their 1950s retro theme fit like a glove in our era-inspired theme week!

Amanda & Jose’s DIY superhero wedding

A love of DIY and a love of comic book superheros was just the start of the planning for this party. Deciding on a live band was a compromise that paid off. Plus, they said their vows in the same church Amanda’s grandmother attended and in which her great-great-grandparents were married. Aww!

Amber & Dylan’s Roaring ’20s prison wedding

A shared passion for the 1920s, ample props and costumes, and a historic (and haunted!) prison setting well worthy of the task — looks like a roaring wedding for any flapper at heart. The best part is that this couple’s guests totally got into the the theme! It’s the best thing any theme wedding can have: commitment to the bit!
