Bookish wedding ideas for all of you bibliophiles [UPDATED!]
This week we’re paying homage to the academics, the bookworms, the card-carrying library loiterers, and the literati among our readers. So in addition to our usual round-up of reader submissions via Flickr and Pinterest, we’re showcasing some bookish wedding details including decor made from book pages, bookish cake toppers, table numbers from vintage books, and even a Scrabble cake!
Kristina & Ki Yin’s Double Happiness East-meets-West wedding
A groom from Hong Kong living in Brisbane and a Canadian dame living in Adelaide means an East-meet-West wedding on a few levels. Working with the color red, rockabilly style, a “Double Happiness” theme, and two continents, this double wedding (plus 40-day honeymoon!) was a world traveling wonder.
Erin & Matt’s crafty music-inspired quirky wedding
There is some serious music loving going on here and it shows in all of the awesome song choices and self-DJing. This pair also loves DIY and specifically knitting, which led them to craft tons of knitted details including their cake topper, bouquets, and hair flowers. And you just might love the bride’s gorgeous green gown!
Antonia & Brian’s historians combine worlds wedding
These two met at The National Archives, so photos there were required. But after that, it was all about the amazing crocheted red dress, the choreographed dance, the meaningful ceremony rituals, and the awesome song written by the bride’s closest friend. Hungarian, British, and Irish influences reigned, but it was all about inclusion at this sweet wedding.
