Isabel & Samuel’s treasure boxes and bikes on the beach wedding
A Nicaraguan groom, a Cuban-Bolivian bride from the U.S., and a glorious beach ceremony in Nicaragua — this is some multicultural fabulousness. But the best part is how much we learned from the bride and her search for unique local vendors for her destination wedding. Plus, get your hankies ready for the bride’s story of her mother and the treasure boxes.

We’re falling into the so-excited-it’s-almost-fall trap hardcore. But that’s okay: trap us in your cool embrace and crunchy leaves, fall! Here’s a little horror and zombies pre-Halloween preview to whet your appetite for the season. The dessert bar alone is to die for… think anatomical hearts, zombie mousse graves, and a cake with a giant bloody bite out of it. It’s ghoulishly delicious!
Marilee & Lizz aka “Sasquatch and gnome” get hitched in a nature park

Just wait until you read what they did for the first time in front of their family. It’s tear-jerking. But our favorite part is the funniest moment. Hint: it contains Boy Scouts and a very special merit badge…
