Andrell & Aaron’s Padme and Anakin Star Wars wedding
This week we’re celebrating our sci-fi-loving, fantasy-squeeing, and comic book-collecting couples. Today’s wedding features a full-on Star Wars Halloween theme including lake dress Padme and Dark Anakin. There’s lots of lightsaber fun (including the cake cutters!) and even some Jawas escorting the bride.
Anna & Joe’s circus carnival and costume ball wedding
From her breathtaking blood-red gown to his dapper top hat and tails, these two are the picture of gorgeous Victorian fashion. I’ll bet you’d be surprised at who their officiant was! Their old-school carnival/circus-themed tent of lights, stripes, juggling, and fire let them entertain their guests and share the spotlight that’s often squarely on the couple getting married — a smooth move. You’re also going to love the late night dip in the pool, the killer shoes, and the heartwarming grandfather as an admiring admiral just bursting with happy mid-hug.
A book sighting and a whole lot of lovey-dovey makeouts
It’s been a while since we’ve seen an Offbeat Bride the Book shot! And these two are awesomely retro, which doubles the fun. I would like to snag both of those pairs of sunglasses. But this week is going to take a slightly different turn. The Flickr Pool, Pinterest, and the Offbeat Bride Tribe was full of romance shots and K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
This bride was carried to the altar in a coffin!
How do you walk down the aisle when your theme is “Till Death do Us Part” and you’re getting married in an Northern California cemetery? If you’re Kristen, you surprise the hell out of your groom by entering in a coffin carried by the groomsmen.
Yeah, yeah: I know LAST week was our week for spooky weddings, but trust: you’re going to want to see Kristen and Joe’s sweetly macabre video. It’s way more heartwarming than the title of this post suggests.
Kelly & Adam’s three-part Halloween dance party
Get your candy out because it’s Halloween Week! We’ve got zombies, ghosts, and gore in our weddings. Today we have a three-part celebration with Halloween flair (and a zombie dog!). You’ll definitely want to check out the Halloween cakes too. And see how the bride uses a tie clip as a memorial in her bouquet!
Turn small pumpkins into vases for your floral centerpieces
We hosted a party at our house, and I decided that this would be a great opportunity to test out the cost and time effectiveness of my DIY centerpiece idea: flowers in a real pumpkin vase. Here’s how I pulled it off…
