Lauren & Ben’s casual double-vowed Lord of the Rings wedding
A campground wedding with picnic fare, games, and geeky details? Sign us up! We’ve got Lord of the Rings touches, Rubik’s Cube cake toppers, an awesome way to handle a ring warming. Plus, you’ll never guess how they made their first look even MORE intimate and memorable. It may have been a sweltering June day, but these two are cool as cucumbers.

Yes it’s an air plant wedding bouquet!
Lots of kids + lots of games + lots of time to run around = lots of fun. That’s the theory of this wedding and it TOTALLY worked. Add in the gorgeous venue, two different ceremonies, and lots of DIY, and this community-oriented wedding wins the day. Even though the guest list spiked by 75, these two pulled it together with the generosity of friends (and even a fellow Tribesmaid!).
Robots, I Spy, s’mores, and a secret get-away table
Crystal and Justin’s wedding took place at Molly Ward Gardens in Poulsbo, WA where Justin worked as a teenager. They rocked their favorite themes: robots, the Seattle Sounders, colored glass, and chalkboard art. Plus, there was the added bonus of random wigs at the reception, an “I Spy” game, lots of pie and s’mores, and some kick-ass cheering shots! Oh, and don’t miss the motorboating shot. It’s hot and hilarious.
