Swedish fairy ceremony: a sneak peak from the cherry blossom brides!

You just might remember these two ladies from a certain very flowery and pink ceremony in Sweden. The Stockholm city hall wedding was only their first ceremony to make it official.

A lakeside wedding with ribbon wands and spontaneous singing

Hailing from my hometown of Chicago, Briavael and Nikki had an outdoor ceremony in Berger Park, right next to a very hazy Lake Michigan. But the best part that I can see is that everyone (guests included) all broke into song during the ceremony.

Allycen & Lisa’s intimate road trip wedding

This wedding was held on one of the bride’s late father’s birthday. That alone was a moving tribute. The rest of the wedding lived up to the sentiment with the bride’s 91-year-old grandmother (and her purse!) walking her down the aisle, the tribute to love in the ceremony, and the caterers joining in with the celebrating to complete the guest list.

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.
