Unseelie royalty has arrived in their finery: a rich red gown, red and black leather, and lush florals at this dark fae wedding. The castle backdrop betrays their status among the other dark fae in the Unseelie court. Don’t miss this stunning wedding with visuals that will knock your socks off and geeky references to tickle your nerd bone.

Multicultural fusion and fire engines as seen on @offbeatbride

Be inspired by this multicultural fusion wedding (with a fire engine!)

The bride was living in Istanbul, the groom was in Mexico, her family hails from Scotland, but the wedding was to be held in England. Talk about a lot of Googling and Skyping to get this wedding planned! Good thing they had access to the groom’s gorgeous childhood home and backyard to which they could DIY it to high heaven. Just wait until you see the bride’s red sari, the Indian-meets-UK catering, and the amazing fire engine!

If not, you’ll definitely be sucked in with the pine cone and wooden log centerpieces, woodsy Mario cake, and wee ones in Medieval garb at this Medieval feast wedding.
