Leah & Jaime’s Friday the 13th dance-fest wedding
A Friday the 13th wedding with a zombie-inspired ceremony, and skull details (including matching tattoos!) — this means a pretty rad and gothic wedding with tons of gorgeous touches. And wait until you get a load of their reception dance-fest details: an LED dance floor AND a must-see Dance Dance Revolution arcade setup, which led to a most excellent impromptu group dance to Grease songs!
Elizabeth & Joshua’s “spring in winter” orange grove wedding
Orange groves, bee details, and pastel hues: it’s the stuff of miracles when snow covers many of us. This wedding also boasts a fabulous handmade dress, potluck food (AND potluck performances!), a tree planting ceremony, and adorable wedding party fashion. So much sweetness, so little time.
Christine & Derek’s misadventurous rainbow hodgepodge of freaks & geeks wedding
This hodgepodge of rainbows and sunny moments has lots of creative awesomeness and colorful memories! The bright rainbow dress! The boyfriend’s orange vest! The quiddich robes! The skit before the vows! You guys, tune in for a team that pulled together and laughed together and serenaded the nerves away….
Erin & Jay’s queer Jewish Dominican wedding
This pair has an awesomely diverse community willing to celebrate and totally donate their time and energy into making this wedding rock. And boy, did it. In addition to the bride’s handmade dress (out of a sari!) and groom’s kick-ass suit, there was wedding party aisle dancing, ukulele toasts, and a giant group hug right after the ceremony.
Reader roundup: Offbeat Bride photos that we want to move into and never leave again
I loved Ariel’s comment on the first photo in this roundup: “I want to move into this picture and never leave ever again.” I kind of felt like that about ALL the photos that we discovered in our Flickr pool this week. Retro candy, sexy bride and groom attitudes, Star Wars wedding details, and an adorable adult flower girl AND boy!

The Washington-based photographers flew out to Nebraska to attend the church ceremony and art gallery reception.
