Amanda & Jose’s DIY superhero wedding
A love of DIY and a love of comic book superheros was just the start of the planning for this party. Deciding on a live band was a compromise that paid off. Plus, they said their vows in the same church Amanda’s grandmother attended and in which her great-great-grandparents were married. Aww!
Amelia & Ben’s books and fairy tales Quaker wedding
With a love of narrative and a Quaker ceremony, this already isn’t your typical shindig. Add in cool centerpieces, geeky speeches, and the bride’s amazing headpiece, and it’s turning into something really amazing. Don’t forget to watch their awesome vintage-style save-the-date too!
Devon & Michelle’s lesbian pirate bowling wedding
When I saw this wedding come through, it was a jumble of amazing words all up in my grill: lesbians, pirates, bowling, my home state! And once I saw the photos, I was LOVING it. A pirate ship cake cut with a sword, a Jenga guest book, and major costume participation all in a bowling alley means only the most fun evar.
Sarah & Eddie’s “it takes a village” theater wedding
Sometimes a wedding is a project for everyone in a couple’s life, as was the case in this wedding where everyone pitched in. Held in a vintage theater outside of Chicago, the highlights were undoubtedly the meatloaf cake (plus brunch!) and the AMAZING Wai-Ching dress.
