Lauren & Johnny’s rockin’ seaside aquarium boda

An authentic taco bar, a garage rock band, and the most awesome hand-illustrated invitation… need I say more? This South-of-the-border-influenced bash boasted lots of fun details and a gorgeous seaside ceremony. And you’ll love the bride’s Burning Man-inspired flaming copper flower bouquet!

Lane & Jason’s folk village cultures collide wedding

This couple blends Indian cuisine, fairies, bellydancers, Rajasthani and Tunisian dancers, fire-spinning and yes, Salt-N-Pepa’s “Push It” on accordion, into a medley of colors and flavors too awesome to be kept indoors. They had to carve a place in Wisconsin’s Driftless Region to hold all of this inspiration.

Laura & Henry’s casual kite-flying pinwheel wedding

This casual, outdoor wedding has a ton going for it: pinwheels, kites, aerial silks performance, an elaborate ruse where the couple hides among the guests in disguise, and a hilarious officiant (with video!). We also find out just how far the groom will go to prove his love for his bride… beating up old ladies. Just don’t make him prove it.

Zoe & Zach’s puppet show park wedding

These two artists collaborated with friends to create an epic “Owl and the Pussycat” puppet show ceremony including rockets, banners, singing, a ring dove, and a look-alike puppet officiant. They followed up the performance with barbecue and polka music. And don’t worry: there’s a video!
