Sweet simplicity: Sam & Meghan’s small, simple Winter wedding
This was a very small and simple Winter wedding — a celebration of our relationship. There were 17 guests in attendance, just immediate family and best friends. We met in the dead of winter at a small college chapel for the ceremony, then went to a restaurant down the street for dinner. We had few decorations, no theme, no wedding party, no rehearsal dinner, no formal invitations, no gifts, no dancing — and it was glorious.
You’ll swoon over how these ladies danced into their ceremony
Mary and Emily had been together for ten years waiting for gay marriage to be legalized. Three days after the ban was overturned, Mary called Emily’s mom to ask for her hand in marriage. Her mom’s response was, “Well, it’s about time.” Our favorite part was how they danced into the ceremony that ended with their guests forming a half circle around them. They then shared a dance before the ceremony started and another dance after.
A sunset catamaran ceremony, a travel theme, and two dudes in love
Michael and Marco were planning their wedding celebration in Texas before the memorable “Love Wins” announcement. The excitement really ramped up after the ruling passed. They love to travel and were brought together by their love of ’80s music and movies, so that was included in their theme. The pair sailed off at sunset on a cruise with champagne for the catamaran ceremony.
