Jaime & Thomas’ Groundhog Day ski lodge wedding

Trying to remember your wedding day is a great idea, but trying to relive it like in Groundhog Day — now that’s an epic goal. That, plus lots more movie references abounded (including a Harold and Kumar reading!) And wait until you see what activity was planned for post-ceremony fun. Here’s one hint: they’re surrounded by snow.

Lily & Chris’ double happiness rock ‘n’ roll two wedding weekend

It’s one thing to take on a big wedding; it’s a whole other thing to plan two back-to-back ceremonies and parties! But once you see the retro fashion, Asian-inspired details, Chinese dancing lions, and sweet band tribute from the groom, you’ll totally agree that it’s a double happiness moment. OH, and a ceremonial martial arts board breaking by the bride? It happened — twice.

Rachel & Bo’s rockin’ red and black wedding

There were a few very sweet moments in this wedding: mom walking her daughter down the aisle, friends singing at the ceremony, and a rockin’ band playing for their friends at the reception. I also can’t forget to mention the gorgeous red and black details like the bride’s shoes (matching her hair!), black crinoline, and flower clutch. It all ends up being a fabulous music-filled day.
