Adrian & Brian’s hippie carnival campout wedding
This wedding brought together the couple’s bohemian/artist/hippie/punk friends for a raucous campout. They may not be the best at RSVPing, but they definitely know how to show up in style. Plus, they were finally able to convince an awesome “Russian/Balkan/marching band meets punk rock dance party” band to play for them!
David & Stephanie’s kawaii anime childhood-inspired wedding
With touches of 8-bit video game fun, Hello Kitty, Kill Bill, and Disney, this pair wanted to channel their childlike joy for their guests. Add in a Pokeball ring holder, a last-minute cake topper swap, and an epic bouquet toss, and you’ve got a super cute and totally personalized party.
Pink boots, mustache flasks, and one killer comic save-the-date
Tribe member Deloreangrrl’s groom and his friend made this save-the-date comic strip from an old Batman comic for their Alice in Wonderland-themed wedding. And these were emailed to save on postage and to be kind to the earth. This, among many other excellent photos of boots, kilts, flasks, dresses, awesome ink, and a circus tent piñata, came from our reader submissions. I love it when the Tribe, the Offbeat Flickr Pool, and the Offbeat Bride Pinterest account come though for us with this kind of eye candy.
Martha & Jonathan’s Israel and Prague unconventional Jewish wedding
The first wedding was in Prague with tungsten rings, the second in Israel with handcuffs. You heard right! Plus, the bride also handmade both of her black and white dresses. When the rain came down, they had to resort to a plan B, but it all turned out fabulously in the end! Check out this small wedding with big cool factor.
