Louise & Adam’s gothic fairytale wedding

It all started with a birthday card featuring purple and white dragons… and led to the gothic splendor that is this richly-hued fairytale wedding. There’s a little bit for geeks, a little bit for film buffs, and a whole lot for those in the mood for romance. And when you see the details of the rich purple taffeta custom-made dress, you’ll swoon.

A delightfully macabre Victorian gothic wedding

Molly and James’ wedding at The Gatehouse of Lionsgate Events Center in Lafayette, Colorado is a gothic Victorian feast for the eyes. We’re talking belly dancers, tarot card readers, hula hoopers, and a royal blue gown designed by a Cirque du Soleil costume designer. The macabre theme continued with death tag wedding place cards, black-painted trees, a creep-tastic candy buffet, and a blue and white spider web cake.

Lauren & Jordan’s Highland gothic seaside wedding

What better way to celebrate shared Scottish heritage than with kilts, a bagpiper, and lots of tartan? Oh, and add in some goth elements, a little headbanging, and a camera-shy groom, and you’ve got a well-rounded wedding with a ton of good times. And best of all, the rivet head Burners and the small town families came together in perfect harmony.
