A fabulous rainbow geek social media wedding

I’m going on 300 weddings edited and this is the FIRST French wedding I’ve done! In fact, we haven’t seen one in over two years. But when it finally came around, it came around with a bang. You will love this adorable couple, their rainbow-tastic details, geeky references, funky dancing, and ingenious use of the Tribe to get to vendors they wouldn’t otherwise have access to in France.

Plus, SO MUCH FUN. This couple definitely knows how to throw a good party that is true to their needs.

When venues give you lemons, host the wedding in a backyard! This pair took their tie-dyed shirts, ice cream sundae bar, volleyballs, guitars, bongos, and fireworks straight home, and it was a better party for it! Kick off your shoes and enjoy this casual and bare-footed wedding.

Add in more awesomeness like the bride’s brother as officiant and the casual Hungarian catering, and it’s a sweet little party.
