My Nigerian engagement ceremony bridentity crisis
I’m generally of the belief that your wedding is not always about you, but it should reflect you: your beliefs, your values, and your community. But how could I feel good about a ceremony where I didn’t feel like myself and nothing else felt like me either? In the end, it was really been a two-step process…
Crystal & Denny’s rockabilly red and turquoise wedding
If falling in love is like owning a dog, these two took the leash and ran with it. Their ceremony honored their love for each other and their beloved pets. Their rockabilly sensibilities, with a Hard Rock Cafe backdrop, made for a very musically-inspired event, complete with guestbook guitar and fab playlist. All that, and an amazing red dress — wait til you see what’s under it!
Cory & Joe’s laid-back winter wonderland wedding
This mellow holiday wedding lit the electric menorah and decorated with Christmas trees, featured appearances by a female Elvis impersonator AND a female Santa impersonator, and had a fountain — not of chocolate, but NACHO CHEESE. The ceremony involved compromising on vows, touching readings, and family blessings, and as one small guest put it, some WHOA. Snuggle in for some holiday cheer and peek through this winter wonderland wedding…
Stephanie & Morgan’s whiskey and wildflowers wedding
If you can’t settle on just one theme, go ahead and blend in all the things you love. This pair started with the wildflowers, and added whiskey, subtle sci-fi quotes, funky music, and robots, and in one photo, the groom looks like he’s so happy he could float on air. Check out how they blended their faiths, families, and traditions into one amazing wedding.
