The most fun wedding ideas we saw this month
This month brought us some super goosebumps-giving moments like those Harry Potter socks, gorgeous gray hair, perfectly mismatched bridesmaids, wedding cartwheels, and even a treehouse venue. Here are some of the best photos we saw in the past month from the amazing vendors in our Offbeat Vendor Guide.
From acrobatic and monochromatic engagement shots to mohawks and a lush wedding video, here are a few of the stand-outs…
Doctor Who meets fairies and anime at this geeky swords and wands wedding
Where do I even begin with all of these killer pop culture references in this geeky swords and wands wedding? The groom, Jon, wore 10th Doctor-inspired suit and accessories, there were Sword Art Online swords, Harry Potter wands, and gorgeous wings (made my a Victoria’s Secret wing creator!).
But really, the stand-out here is Kate’s majestic Mak Tumang gown that steals the show.
We are nerding out over these custom toasting flutes, glasses, and geektastic gifts
We got super lucky and stumbled upon Glass Cannons via this wedding we featured. I basically went googly-eyed when I spied the etched glasses paying homage to their favorite fandoms (read: Magic the Gathering!).
They’ve got toasting flutes, shot glasses, and quirky drinkware galore. And if you have an idea in mind for glasses that mach your wedding theme, they’ll absolutely do a custom set for you…
Travel through Tatooine, Middle Earth, Westeros & more at this pop culture travel-themed wedding (with April Fools pranks!)
Our geekdom runs deep and we're known to throw themed parties, so settling on a single fandom felt forced for an event of this magnitude. Instead, we decided to put a little bit of everything we love together for a truly unique experience. For a while, though, nothing fit together. Plus, we were annoyed by traditions that felt were “expected.” So, we identified what really mattered: bringing the people we love together and staying true to ourselves.
Then something clicked for our theme: inspired by a wall in our home covered in fictional maps. We chose a Pop Culture Travel theme!
Be entranced by this mystical spell book-inspired guest book wedding album
Fantastic guests and where to find them… inside this spell book-inspired photo guest book! If you summoned a Harry Potter-inspired photo album, how would it look? Well here’s how I envisioned it with Rowlingesque detail. Don’t miss the student-written notes, illustrations, and stunning details.
It’s magical!
Golden snitches and kilts at this geeky Scottish-inspired wedding in Maine
Denae and Daniel clearly spent so much time and so much love on the details of their Harry Potter geek Scottish wedding in Maine. Danae scouted all of her table settings from thrift stores to create the vintage-inspired setup. The ceremony archway was framed by replicas of the couple’s pets: their cats and their lizard!
To cap it all off, there was a rainbow just as the reception was beginning. You just have to see it!
