Katy & Joe’s pinwheels, vintage dress, and a walk for a cure wedding

This pair were already super psyched to get married, but having the ceremony at a cystic fibrosis walk (which is close to the bride’s heart), made it all the more personal and amazing. Don’t miss the groom’s day-glow green suit, the bride’s grandmother’s dress that she remade to her own design, and the super funny ribbon “cutting” ceremony. Get ready to feel like happy gooey butter after seeing this wedding.

Stephanie & Kyle’s bookish blue wedding

This pair may have originally wanted a small wedding, but their family-focused book-loving wedding ended up being just right. We are loving the pink dress, gorgeous ombre chuppah (that took nine months to make!), and super special mom/daughter walk down the aisle. Bit it might have been the rendition of a Muppet song from the bride and her sister that really did us in.

Mishy & DJ’s nerdcore poly wedding complete with sonic screwdriver

Pink glasses, purple groom’s hair, and a poly-inclusive (and everything else-inclusive!) — this Jewish-meets-Boston-meets-New York wedding is just a dream. The couple dealt with some challenges: disabilities, long-distance planning, and how to incorporate all their interests — but damn did they do it well! Smoosh your face against the screen and give these cuties a virtual hug.
