Kelsey & Meghan’s classic happy-sappy wedding
These two ladies decided early on that priorities were key and they wouldn’t be going into debt from the wedding. And they were able to pull together a lovely ceremony and dancefest reception (with s’mores!). You might also never guess that the bride’s two dresses and all the dresses in the wedding party were handmade, too!
Sylvia & Tyson’s relaxed bird-themed registry office wedding
This wedding has amazing details like bird-inspired decor, red and black-clad bridesmaids, and the groom’s dad’s band. But not everything went as expected, in particular the “poo scrotum” favors. You read that right. Sometimes last-minute additions can become hilarious surprises.

An elegant gothic Iron Chef wedding
As someone who has never really adhered to the concept of “gender” and felt like I fall somewhere on the scale between tomboy and androgynous, I was surprised to find planning for my wedding made me feel unexpectedly girly. I fought it for a little while, but eventually decided to just go with it. Wearing makeup and doing my hair for one day didn’t make me a new person, it was just the side of me that decided to pop out for the occasion.
