colored crinoline

We LOVE colorful petticoats peaking out from tea-length wedding dresses! Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple… we’ve seen every color of the rainbow, including full-spectrum RAINBOW petticoats.

Belinda & Craig’s Aussie rock apocalypse wedding

It’s another theme week!! This week is dedicated to the brides and grooms gutsy enough to perform at their own wedding. In others words, this week is for couples who, literally, rocked their wedding! How better to kick off our first ever Rock Your Wedding theme week, than with the bride and groom who rocked their reception? -Becca

Joan and Tom’s upcycled carnival cabaret wedding

We married on September 11, 2010. We’d just met when the 9/11 tragedy occurred. After the initial shock subsided, we made a big feast for the people who lived in our building. That was the first loving thing we did as a couple, so we consider it our anniversary. It made sense to marry on that day (albeit having to explain the story a million times).
