If the costumes, kick-ass handmade dress, and three-legged dog dressed as the Black Knight (sans leg, natch) don’t get you, the paper doll-inspired invitation will.

And if THAT doesn’t get you, just wait until you see the band dressed as brides and the slow-dancing Jay and Silent Bob. It’s a smorgasbord of amazingness over here.

Don’t miss the paper flower decor, the forest-y venue, the sexiest boots, and the tiniest aisle-walker ever!
