A dreamy, handcrafted fall farm wedding in the Catskills
Lauren and Olivia (aka “Chicken”) had the most dreamy farm wedding with epic views of the Catskill Mountains. We’re talking rustic nature-inspired centerpieces, a rich autumn color palette, and a a rainbow effect in the bridesmaids dresses.
Don’t miss the farm animals milling about, the lawn games, the handcrafted details, Olivia’s chicken cufflinks(!), and these two gorgeous people in love…
Clashes of steel at this choose-your-own-adventure warrior wedding complete with a quest
As James and I met in martial arts, and one of our favorite things to do is go to Renaissance festivals, we decided to put a good third of our budget to awesome custom armor sets. We special-ordered swords. I made my own scabbard. We commissioned one of my favorite artists for custom illustration made into our tapestry.
We did our own simple decorations and set up. The ONE RULE for all attendees was that they had to come in some sort of costume (yes, even the officiant). The theme? "Choose your own adventure." We were not disappointed, and had an amazing time.
Movies & mayhem at this joyful pop culture wedding (feat. a flower man!)
The return of the FLOWER MAN is here with this pop culture-loving wedding. Here’s how it went down… We had nods to what we love everywhere. We had a Star Wars ice sculpture (half rebel alliance logo, half empire logo, and our first kiss was during A New Hope), Pulp Fiction cookie favors, a Game of Thrones donut wall, movie titled signature drinks…it was just us and things we love.
Donuts, pretzels, & cheesy photo fun at this New York City elopement
Cassie and Justin met ten years ago, only a year after Cassie had moved to New York from Toronto. They wanted their wedding to reflect who they were: low key but really fun. They invited their closest friends and parents to their sweet and fun New York City elopement.
Get ready for the NYC elopement of all of our dreams…
