Alise & Adam’s intimate San Francisco surprise elopement

These cuties met on Tinder! After the bride’s experiences as a wedding hairstylist, the whole idea of a wedding wasn’t for her, so these two took off to San Francisco’s city hall to get married and surprise all their friends. With only four people in attendance (and one cheeky officiant!), they made it official. Don’t miss the purple hair, glittery gold dress, and amazing scenery.

Susan & Jana’s barn dance wedding in the Catskills

A couple of theater kids planned a big ol’ barn dance deep in the mountains with custom koozies, beer favors, paper flowers, a coed bouquet toss, and a furry ring bearer. Add in a shared cupcake “cake cutting” and some extra heartfelt speeches, and everyone will be in love with this love. Just be warned if you’re planning a mountain wedding: cell reception may be sparse!
