Ruffles, card cages, DIY projects, and some kick-ass save-the-dates
Lots of DIY was happening in the Offbeat Flickr Pool and Offbeat Bride Pinterest account this week. We’ve got ruffled skirts, copper-leafed candles, Lebowski-style save-the-dates, and some save-the-dates written on faces! It just a DIY kind of week.
A medieval Pagan handfasting vow renewal
Seeing the love at a young couple’s wedding is one thing, but seeing the same big, soppy, lovey-dovey love after 20 years at a vow renewal just rocks. Kids, dogs, handmade medieval garb, and a wicked maypole brings it all together.
Lauren & Chris’ polka dot bowling alley wedding
The bride loves owls, purple, and polka dots, while the groom likes plaid. Clashing? Hell no! Put it all together in a retro bowling alley and the deal is sealed. Some science-inspired vows and a Thriller interlude capped off the ceremony. Check out this retro-inspired wedding in California.
Cara & Kit’s motorcycling hula-hooping waterfall wedding
Things that rock about this wedding: DIY barefoot sandals, hula hoops, scenery to die for (or at least get a ticket from a park ranger for!), infectious smiles, and a motorcycle getaway. When the bridal headpiece is a motorcycle helmet, you know you’re dealing with some kick-ass people.
