Attention wedding mermaids: this beach wedding inspiration is like Atlantis come to life

Okay sure, this is beach wedding inspiration, but it’s taking things up a level to MERMAID territory. Think blue ombre hair with a handmade shell crown, a beach-y bouquet with air plants and greenery, a golden shell purse, a tall ship tablescape, a gold-gilded cake worthy of King Triton’s court, and the blue sequined dress of our sea-worthy dreams. Please take these details and inject them into your seafoam fantasy wedding and then show it to us! For now, behold the gorgeousness…

These backyard brides triumphed with killer suits at their house on the shore

Casey and Stephanie’s chic wedding was hosted in their backyard at the New Jersey Shore in their custom-made suits (by Bindle & Keep!). It was a triumph of style, epic love, AND adversity, as you’ll see. Korean fusion tacos, customized glasses, a homemade Rice Krispies wedding cake, and suits that were the envy of all!

#ErinAndTimGetMeowied: a nerdy cat lady wedding

Our wedding had a loose theme of books, cats, and glitter. I really wanted my four cats to be at the wedding, but it wasn’t possible, so I had to just let my cat lady status show in other ways.

I wore cat shoes and had a cat purse. We had our cats added to our cake topper, cat paw chocolate pops favors, and made sure to have cat ears at the photo booth. And, of course, used a cat lady wedding hashtag: #ErinAndTimGetMeowied.

When a bride rolls up on a white horse (or how we LOVED this New Jersey farm wedding)

When a bride rolls up on a white horse (or how we LOVED this New Jersey farm wedding)

Justin and Lauren are from Qatar and came home to Justin’s family farm for their wedding. The whole farm was featured at the wedding from the rad altar the family made out of found wood, to the backyard cocktail party, and then the safari tented reception. Guests were ferried around on the back of a tractor and the paths were lit with string lights.
