A queertastic gothic Victorian celebration of love

Corsets, sword canes, cat cupcake toppers, and a stylin’ gender-neutral party of “wing people.” That’s the fun in store with this celebration of throwing caution and gender to the wind. Plus, there’s a heaping helping of gothic Victorian fashion.

A fall wedding with candy and science

A wedding at the Arizona Science Center with beakers full of candy (since they met at a candy shop) and fall-themed details. It’s a combination with which you might just fall for. Check out the richly-hued day with striped socks, live music, and of course, science projects for all!

Roz & Pete’s humanists loving doughnuts and Prince wedding

This couple loves Krispy Kremes, books, vintage cameras, and each other. Do you want to be their BFFs yet? They had two ceremonies (one being of the humanist persuasion), an epic candy buffet, and dress-up costumes for the reception resulting in much hilariousness. The coincidental ceremony mishap is pretty funny too.
