Casey & Chad’s family-friendly magical Harry Potter wedding

We love us some Harry Potter weddings for all the the fun details: owl save the date card, Marauders’ Map-inspired directions card, Daily Prophet program, Chocolate Frog favors, homemade ribbon wands, and of course, a huge, Harry Potter-themed sweets table! Just keep the underage wizards from the booze table!

Kirstin & Earl’s gothic-inspired masquerade wedding

A luscious red dress, a guy-linered groom, an amazing theater venue, and a plan to make everyone mix and mingle that included ornate masks — this spooky Halloween wedding in Salem, Oregon makes our knees quake in fear… I mean lust! Add in some movie and video game-themed music and some costume-clad guests and you’re in for a spooky time with a super gorgeous backdrop.

Krystal & Matthew’s red carpet premiere film noir wedding

A red carpet, popcorn and soda, and even a film noir short film created by the couple — this is a cinephile’s dream wedding. Add in the 1940s-era outfits, Moulin Rouge-inspired gown, and delish food truck nosh, and these two totally know how to party film buff-style.

Jenn & Bill’s laid-back and fun-focused wedding

This pair totally has the right idea: don’t over-plan, keep your vows sweet and funny, and focus on all things FUN. At one of our favorite venues, [vendor-heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/the-quixotic-world"]The Quixotic World[/vendor-heart], they were able to dress up, rock out, and celebrate with loved ones from afar. Oh, and make sure to see how they included audience participation in the ceremony!
