A colorful gothically delicious wedding in Newfoundland
Are you up for an elegant industrial goth fix? Today is your day. Ashley and Paddy ooze delicious and colorful gothic energy in their ’til death do us part-themed wedding in Newfoundland. We got to see how these style mavens put it all together: think bright dreads + mohawk, black Utilikilts, combat boots, and even some little peacock feather accents, all layered on a purple and blue backdrop.
Aidan & John’s Celtic renaissance faerie handfasting
There’s a faerie attendant climbing under the bride’s skirt and a groomsmaiden finding out exactly what’s under all those kilts, and that’s just the beginning of this beautiful and sometimes bawdy renaissance faerie handfasting. These two and their castmates put one awesome production of a wedding, complete with royal officiating and Celtic music. Find out what color the bride changed into and how she managed the amazing sleeves as the evening went on.
Ellen & Paul’s summer camp peacock handfasting
Rising from the depths of the lake at summer camp, it’s…. the most adorable crocheted Cthulhu bride and groom cake toppers — the little bride Cthulhu with her peek of peacock dress and the little groom Cthulhu in his kilt and beard. This wedding embraced the gentle nods to weird and sweet personal touches, but shining smiles and hearty laughs win the day.
Cake-loving kids, herb centerpieces, and some bad-ass wedding parties
These mini members of Kathleen and her groom’s wedding party have needs too, guys. It was a pretty adorable way to add some levity and get the kids involved. The sign behind this ones says, “Hey Uncle Tommy, here comes your bride!” In addition to this bit of sweetness in the reader submissions, we’ve got some actual cake (with geeky toppers!), a handfasting with lovely herb centerpieces, and a fair few awesome wedding party shots.
