The tiara that launched a thousand ships: a Cambodian wedding in Massachusetts

Jacqui and Sam had a two-day wedding to cover all their bases: the couple wanted to honor Cambodian and American ceremonies and traditions. Photog [vendor-heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/zac-wolf-photography"]Zac Wolf[/vendor-heart] sent us photos from the colorful love-in that was day one (you can see day two here)! The events of the day took place in the couple’s home, and they participated in four separate ceremonies.

Werewolves, cemetery bridal photos, and skulls: a costume party disguised as a wedding

There is so much SWEET, sweet goodness in this wedding! Looking for a dancing astronaut? Here you go! Want to see a bride dressed as Little Red Riding Hood while being escorted by a wolf? Right here. There are also skull cake toppers, red polka-dot flats, and centerpieces featuring posts from various horror movies (including The Shining). Basically: it’s a creeptastic Halloween wedding dreamscape.

Jennifer & Brian’s vintage Halloween-infused October wedding

The bouquets were made from pages of Edgar Allan Poe, Stephen King, and Red Riding Hood. The cake topper was a miniature zombie family. The place cards were actual TOE TAGS! And then… in classic horror movie style, all the lights went out during the reception! It wasn’t intentional, but that is one way to spook out your guests at a Halloween wedding. Just wait until you see what movie prop they used as a guest book!

Jamie & Jon’s three-day summer camp wedding

Let’s reminisce about being a kid with this summer camp wedding complete with crayons, popcorn favors, a “Hershey’s Kiss girl” instead of a flower girl, a camp out with a fire juggler, and an AMAZING pink ruffled corset gown (you may remember from here). Plus, get a load of the adorable matchy-match father and son kilts! My heart… I swoon! All that plus the sweetest groom-gets-teary first look ever.
