Allycen & Lisa’s intimate road trip wedding

This wedding was held on one of the bride’s late father’s birthday. That alone was a moving tribute. The rest of the wedding lived up to the sentiment with the bride’s 91-year-old grandmother (and her purse!) walking her down the aisle, the tribute to love in the ceremony, and the caterers joining in with the celebrating to complete the guest list.

Jen & Henry’s Old Hollywood-inspired with a touch of Assyrian wedding

The groom comes from a big wedding-loving Assyrian family, the bride wants to elope discreetly. Sometimes an Old Hollywood vibe is the draw that brings a reluctant bride around. Have some classic movie place cards, lots of feathers, some glowing and happy parents, and Old Hollywood glamour and everyone will go home happy. Plus they had some really sweet audience involvement during the ceremony.
