Hollie & Caleb’s cultural mix-up wedding and reception

Texarkana (a city that stretched across Texas and Arkansas) can be quite the scary place for a young interracial couple. But Hollie & Caleb still managed to find each other, and throw an offbeat wedding!

Anne & Andrew’s colorful, secular, swing dance wedding

I can’t think of a better way for Anne & Andrew to celebrate their nuptials than throwing a swing dance party in a 1950’s Art Deco building in downtown St. Louis!

April & Zack’s handfasting ceremony and murder mystery luncheon

Most of April & Zack’s friends don’t dance, so they were forced to come up with a creative form of entertainment for their wedding. Their solution: murder mystery game!

Rebecca & Kain Kaare’s vintage, camp ground, tea party wedding

We were on a very tight budget and ended up spending only $3000 including our wedding clothes, rings, and the honeymoon. We had the wedding party at a campground to save cash. For food, I made alot myself but also got sandwiches from Jimmy Johns because it’s my favorite food. Kaare drew the design for our wedding invitation so we were able to make those ourselves.

We went with an eclectic look; clashing bright colors (mostly orange and paisley), bowls of skittles mingled with tea cups, and cupcake stands we made ourselves out of vintage plates. We also included my husband’s heritage by having a traditional Norwegian wedding cake in addition to the cupcakes.
