Lauren & Joshua’s rainy potluck wedding
This pair trekked north to New Hampshire to celebrate with far-flung family, but also to spend their wedding dollars on a state and vendors that support marriage equality.

Mary & Craig’s Dr. Seuss-themed colorful rhyming wedding
They had brains in their head. They had feet in their shoes. They could steer themselves in any direction they choose. They weren’t on their own, and they knew what they know.

Cake balls were eaten, an orange suit was worn, and a love that lasts forever was born.
Keli & James’ video games comedy and butterflies wedding
They met playing Final Fantasy, had tons of gamer-happy music, and an epic Portal cake. I think we’re looking at a gamer’s paradise wedding here. A real live stand-up comedian at the reception made this dance-free wedding have no lack of entertainment. Oh, and you’ll love how the bride was given away by her dad and stepdad! Adorableness: check.
