Anne & Stew’s happy hippie hoedown cross-country wedding
This pair had a sweet, tiny redwood forest elopement, but it didn’t end there. They then went on an cross-country party marathon with all of their family and friends in New Jersey, NYC, Texas, and California! Think Austin hokey-tonk bar, Jewish deli catering, a Deadhead-inspired barn dance, and a special guest: Mel the CAMEL. You have to see it to believe it.
Julie & Paul’s farm fresh and sassy wedding
After two years of life and natural disasters delaying the wedding, these hunter/gatherers finally tied the knot at their own gorgeous home in Nova Scotia. With their own foliage (and some lingerie!) as decor, a doggie ring bearer, a fake roadkill-style menu, an actual seafood dinner, and the kissy-face couple themselves, I don’t even know what you’ll love most. Let’s just go with everything!
Lari & Andrew’s elegant DIY wedding with a surprise parade
If you want to be surprised at your own ceremony, it definitely helps to know a former stand-up comedienne to officiate and bring the lulz. And she didn’t fail them with secretly written abbreviated stories of the lives of the couple. A surprise Dia de los Muertos parade, some clever DIY, and a classy venue — even the shoes say “Hell Yes!”
Jenne & Alex’s Viking belly dancing backyard wedding
