This wedding is like if David Lynch filmed The Addams Family ballroom scene (you’ll want to see!)

“The initial concept was: what if David Lynch was to film the ballroom scene from the Addams Family movie and the only cinematographer available was Xavier Pérez Grobet (Nacho Libre)?” Yep, this wedding had STYLE… and aerialists, contortionists, a cake with a terrarium in the middle, excellent vintage fashion, and so much personality. You’ll want to see it as much as you wanted to see its inspiration…

We're mad as hatters for this Alice in Wonderland wedding in Greece

We’re mad as hatters for this Alice in Wonderland-themed wedding in Greece

Konstantina rocked a colorful polka dot wedding dress, light blue wedding shoes, and a super colorful bouquet that channeled Alice in Wonderland. If that’s not enough to get you all in, I don’t know what will. But we’re going to try! The groom, Giannis, took the reins in planning the Alice in Wonderland-themed wedding down to the ideas, photos, and details. They were going for magical over childish, and totally succeeded.

The centerpieces were hats, characters, and candies in lieu of flowers. There were pastel cupcakes, a topsy-turvy cake, “drink me” bottles, clocks, Cheshire Cats, and a rockin’ time all around at this wedding in Thessaloniki, Greece.

The groom painted the dress at this abstract art-inspired vow renewal

Magdalena and Preston had an abstract art-inspired vow renewal on a rooftop in the Arts District of downtown LA. The inspiration for all of the wedding design (the dress, floral arrangements, invitation suite, tablescapes, and cake) was based on one of Preston’s abstract paintings. Our favorite part? Preston hand-painted Magdalena’s tea-length dress, too!

Come see this rainy day turn sunny just in time for their lovely rooftop vow renewal…

Gina and DJ had an art-inspired wedding with one of the most interesting cakes with an amazing story. There were Andy Warhol details everywhere (including the cake, as you’ll see!) including Warhol postcards tucked underneath the napkins, Campbell’s soup cans as vases in the centerpieces, and cookies based on some vintage Warhol wrapping paper.

Are you ready to see this artsy Warhol-inspired wedding at The Cleaners in Portland, OR come to life?

A vegan humanist UK rock and roll wedding (with Elvis and Riot Squad!)

Jess and Stokie Pete had that awesome combination of sublime forest backdrop and raucous rock and roll wedding. They performed Pagan rituals, a handfasting, and broom jumping at the gorgeous Mapperley Farm in Derbyshire followed by a vegan meal and a ton of dancing. That is, until Elvis Presley and Riot Squad arrived to rock everyone out.
