green wedding alternative wedding ideas from Offbeat Wed (formerly Offbeat Bride)

You won’t have seen anything like this rustic costume wedding with a pancake cake

Travis and Gia are both the adventurous and creative, so they planned a super DIYed rustic costume wedding with Halloween touches (one final hurrah for this season!) and a totally independent spirit. So there were kick-ass decorations incorporating pumpkins, costumes, rustic wood, hot pepper jelly favors, and a PANCAKE CAKE! Plus, I just can’t get over the awesomeness of Gia’s short green dress, tiny lace gloves, and birdcage veil. Oh, and don’t miss Travis’ general hotness in his killer tie.

Anne Boleyn weds Freddy Krueger: When a Halloween wedding wins over every horror fan

Anne Boleyn weds Freddy Krueger: When a Halloween costume wedding wins over every horror fan

We wanted potential guests to know what they were getting into right away and used our invitations to set the tone. They had a photo of us as bride and groom zombies and included a “Costumes Required” section. We had a basket of masks available at the ceremony in case people didn’t take the invitation seriously but our guests outdid themselves. Every single person got behind our theme and showed up in an amazing costume. Despite the instructions to our guests many thought we were going to wear “normal” bride and groom attire. We proved them wrong and got married in our dream Halloween costumes. Anne Boleyn weds Freddy Krueger? Why not?!

Great Hera! We’re all Amazons after seeing this Wonder Wonder-inspired shoot

Wonder Woman, Princess Diana of Themyscira, is a demigod and warrior of the Amazons, so a wedding shoot channeling her has to be killer. Think gardens and greenery, columned architecture, and a long flowing one-shoulder dresses. Plus, you’ve got to have her Lasso of Truth as a bouquet alternative, right? Oh, and also a gorgeous floral bouquet. Why not both?

Don’t miss the thin gold belt accent and crown headpiece that keep Wonder Woman’s spirit going with gold wiring and clear crystal stars. Oh, and the gold bracelets channeling her gold arm bands! See how easy it can be to cosplay on the down low at your wedding? Secret geekery in action.
