Julie & Tom’s sci-fi and carnival-inspired treehouse wedding

Snow cones, vuvuzelas, high school students doing historical readings, dressed up dogs, 10-mile runs in wedding garb, a treehouse ceremony, Doctor Who… dude, it’s even fun typing it out! Lots of interests, lots of DIY, and lots of awesome. The bride doesn’t even mention that there was a milkshake bar, which I totally spied on the menu. What!

Ginny & Rob’s no-budget, desert canyon, sci-fi wedding party

Did you jaw totally drop when you saw a sneak peak of Ginny & Rob’s amazing red rock wedding last week? Perhaps it was the freakin’ full-size TARDIS that blew your gourd? Or maybe your a fan from way back when we featured her Star Wars poster STDs? All I can say is that this wedding is awesome and proves that you and/or your event can be nerdy and incredibly gorgeous. – Becc
