A rainy fall barn wedding

A rainy fall farm wedding with woodworking details

Emily and Rodney had a vintage-inspired wedding in Michigan with fall colors, tattoos, Princess Bride and Harry Potter cameos, and woodworking details. Emily is a woodworker and made the inlay for Rodney’s ring. She and her grandfather own a woodworking business so they were able to make most of the decor together.

Her uncle officiated the wedding, starting off with a homage to The Princess Bride, which had everyone laughing. She had some Harry Potter-inspired vows which made everyone sob.

Camp Evermore: an ethereal autumnal wedding adventure

From our initial planning, we had two big goals: a FUN wedding that demonstrated that LOVE is Love. We're from the Midwest and queer weddings are not the norm for our families, but we knew we wanted to plan an experience that was memorable and also helped normalize the beauty of all love. These two goals guided every detail of our autumnal wedding adventure planning.

ombre blue prom dress alternative wedding ideas from Offbeat Wed (formerly Offbeat Bride)

These prom dresses can be the affordable alternative wedding dresses of your dreams [Updated for 2022!]

Prom dresses, bridesmaid dresses, ballgowns, formal dresses… all of these terms can totally mean WEDDING DRESSES. Plus, they’re almost all sub-$500 which means they’re alternative wedding dresses on a budget. I went a-scouring the prom and bridesmaids sections to see what steals and deals I could find in pinks, metallics, whites, creams, florals, and so many more. Y’all know you can wear white, but don’t discount the rest of the rainbow. Those blush sequins need someone to wear ’em, right? I guess I’ll just have to take one for the team and wear them all. It’ll be hard, but I’ll try to manage.

Go beat me to them and find that prom dress turned wedding dress right now…

B + Liz are a rad couple who totally rocked an amazing, simple, and sweet-as-hell DIY farm wedding in Maryland. Every part of their day was filled with love and made to include everyone.

Check out this awesomeness. They got ready quietly together on the farm owned by a family friend. They had friends contribute to a collaborative playlist of music. And Liz’s mom baked EVERY ONE of those cupcakes. It was truly a community effort backed by a whole lot of love. Don’t miss Liz’s retro-styled pink hair, sweet sequined gown, B’s KILLER suit, and the farm animals grazing all around…

This seaside intimate Portugal wedding is what golden dreams are made of

Madelaine and Richard celebrated their intimate Portugal wedding with just a few friends and the sea. They said the best man was the ocean! D’aww. Madelaine is from Mauritius and Richard is from Germany. They are both surfers, and met for the first time at Ericeira in Portugal two years ago. After doing the long distance thing for so long, they decided to take the leap and get married.

It all took place close to the beach at Villa Ana Margarida, a gorgeous setting for this fab tiny wedding.
Don’t miss Madelaine’s gorgeous boho gown, their laid-back style, and the seriously stunning golden light from the sunset…
