Lari & Andrew’s elegant DIY wedding with a surprise parade

If you want to be surprised at your own ceremony, it definitely helps to know a former stand-up comedienne to officiate and bring the lulz. And she didn’t fail them with secretly written abbreviated stories of the lives of the couple. A surprise Dia de los Muertos parade, some clever DIY, and a classy venue — even the shoes say “Hell Yes!”
