Reader Round-up: Fuzzy cuteness, custom invites, and non-floral bouquets
Y’all, I’m bugging OUT over this photo that Dr Bojangles submitted to our Flickr Pool. But that’s just the tip of this week’s round-up… there are a couple furry wedding creatures, a sweet wedding ring set, and a romance novel-inspired wedding invite hand-drawn by a groom…
Aussie brides, a drag queen host, and a 100-year-old tree
This week’s back-to-nature theme would not be complete without Marie and Prue’s wedding under a 100-year-old turpentine tree at a fabulous estate called (what else) The Turpentine Tree in Kurrajong, NSW, Australia. And the photo of Prue’s granddaughter’s fist-pumping approval? Perma-smile engage.
Jodi & Kim’s glow sticks and bling wedding
This wedding has an official “flower disbursement” and “ring security agents.” Basically, they mean business. On top of that, a dog walked down the aisle, a fish was memorialized, and glow sticks featured prominently in the unity ceremony. I think we’re in for some fun. Oh, and you have to read about the jaw-dropping encounter with their first videographer. It was NUTS.
Casual carnival madness and an interactive ring warming
Meg and Carrie hosted a casual carnival-themed wedding in Meg’s parent’s backyard in New Hampshire, proving that backyard weddings can be kick-ass for budget and scenery. (Seriously, the greenery is making me long for warmer weather!) Plus, they put a really fun spin on a ring warming ceremony by making it “interactive.” Read on to see how they did it.
