steampunk

We featured our first steampunk wedding back in 2007, and have been celebrating the Neo-Victorian aesthetic ever since! We’ve got everything from grooms in googles and top hats to brides in gorgeous bustled steampunk wedding dresses… if you like this look, be sure to check out our wedding corset archive, as well.

You may remember Jes’s two fabulous dresses from the Monday Montage a few weeks back. This thoughtful, geeky, steampunk wedding won’t disappoint. -Becca

Monday Montage: lovely ladies, staggering steampunks, gorgeous goths and dazzling dancers

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I wanted to repeat what Ariel said. I am also incredibly thankful for all of you and for the hours of joy and LOLs that all of your wedding photos provide me. Give yourself a high-five, because you rock! Anyway, getting back to business, this week’s Monday Montage starts off with a bang (pun intended ;)). It also has some impressive lookin’ ladies, a little steam-punk, a little goth, a few umbrellas and some good old fashioned boogie time.

Sonja & Wade’s original, retro, steamPUNK DIY wedding

When I saw this wedding in the OBB Flickr Pool, I was like “OMG! I must know everything about this amazing red haired, punk rock, mohawk wedding! EVERYTHING!” And it was WAY awesomer than I thought — there is a body modification ceremony, co-mohawks, the Looney Tunes theme song, and a DIY cake. As Megan said recently, while all of us love all kinds of Offbeat weddings, we, also, all have our own fantastic brand of Offbeat. This is mine, y’all! Enjoy! – Becca

Gina & Frank’s circus-freak, carnival wedding and sideshow

Gina & Frank showed their life long commitment to each other by getting ring tattoos during their ceremony! This fit in perfectly with their tattoo-filled, circus side-show themed wedding.
