Top your noggin with a wilder-style yarmulke
Yarmulkes (or kippahs) are caps worn on the head, typically by those of Jewish faith. For those able to wear something a little more daring, I present these alternative (and sometimes out there) yarmulkes for our offbeat Jewish weddings.
Darcy & Charles’ stripey vegan fancypunk wedding
Nom-worthy vegan food, tons of homemade desserts, a gender-blind wedding party covered in stripes, a wild-ass Hora, and perhaps the most excited-looking couple EVAR. That’s what’s in store here. Plus, their dog Lupin saved the day by rescuing the rings!
Stephanie & Joyce’s Rat Pack meets modern soiree wedding
This pair traverses a limited guest list, interfaith considerations, and late-night loud music ordinances. But you’d never be able to tell that there were any hurdles by everyone’s faces. Though they ran into some rough patches with major wind and some staff turnover at their venue, their positive attitudes are models for peaceful planning!
A sock posse, a Mad Libs RSVP, and a couple of mohawks
This Monday brings us a slew of reader submissions including the stripey sock brigade, a couple of mohawks, and a movie poster invitation. It may be Monday, but at least we have each other and these awesome photos. Check out what Pinterest, The Tribe, and the Offbeat Flickr Pool have gifted us this week.
A sun-filled same-sex Jewish wedding with an eco-friendly mindset
With an eye for using local businesses and salvaged materials, we already like this wedding. But add in two gorgeous ladies, a fabulous spring day at Joaquin Miller Park, and a personalized chuppah, and I am in! Don’t miss the matching purple flats and bookish details too.
An opulent multi-day HinJew wedding
When we were sent this San Francisco wedding, I was gobsmacked first by its amazingness and second by its enormity! There is so much to absorb here. It was lovingly dubbed by the party as the “HinJew” wedding since bride Ruchira is Indian and groom Dave is Jewish! You have to see all the facets of the multi-day celebration including the performances, the decor, and the insanely huge hora!
