A fantastical villainous Candyland sideshow music fest wedding
My husband and I live in and run a House Of Oddities Museum in Pittsburgh called Trundle Manor. We’re used to being surrounded by vintage taxidermy, dead things floating in jars, coffins, and our own art, so the wedding had to be grand enough and weird enough to suit us.
Our wedding cake was a zombified Marie Antoinette head festooned with feathers and candy! It sat alongside our faux wedding cake topped with the taxidermied squirrels we made on our first date in the basement.
Motorcycles, cowboy chic, & vinyl at this Pennsylvania backyard wedding
I have heard it told that when a hairless cat watches you get ready for your wedding, you’re in for a lifetime of good luck. You haven’t heard that? It’s a thing. So when Britta and Tomy’s no-frills Pennsylvania backyard wedding came across my screen, I knew it was good luck.
You’ll be enthralled by the many motorcycles and vans, casual cowboy chic, the vintage-fab ladies arriving in a classic car, and the pops of red everywhere.
Stars meets nature: a subtly geeky lakeside wedding with DIY for days
We combined our love for nature and the stars into a theme that came very easily for us. It helped that we found a venue that was the perfect setting to view the beauty of nature, as well as get a great view of the stars at night. To further our theme, I wanted to add a bit of a fantasy element so I decided to add subtle details that drew from Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, both of which we're big fans.
A Tim Burton-inspired wedding with hints of Star Wars and epic terrarium centerpieces
Tracy and Ben’s Tim Burton-inspired wedding was an amazing reflection of an aesthetic they love. Plus, there were hints of Star Wars and comic books, too. They got married at a private barn in Pipersville, PA that had rustic charm for days and plays host to art shows. Tracy DIYed all of the decorations including the very fun and geeky terrariums.
All of the groom’s side of the wedding party were in kilts (including his sisters!) and their pups made cameos all over. There was a September heat wave going on, so Tracy rocked a gorgeous and goth-inspired black parasol for some ceremony shade. Then it was all about the dancing in the (slightly) cooler barn. Let’s peep this killer goth and Tim Burton-inspired wedding…
