Beth & Cory’s artsy, nerdy, and elegant museum wedding

A black Vera Wang dress, black studded heels, and a groom in white — already the fashion is enough to make us drool, but just wait until you see the video game references and home brewery-inspired decor. It’s Final Fantasy meets beer meets dark elegance at this art museum in Ohio.

Nicole & Josh’s pop culture interfaith geek wedding

Comic book shoes, wholesale flowers, and a some geeky movie and TV references… this is our kind of geeky LA party. Add in the cool venue, the donuts, and the Star Wars centerpieces and it’s on like Donkey Kong. Oh, and don’t miss the groom’s hilarious swan dive into his groomsmen!
