Mary & Craig’s Dr. Seuss-themed colorful rhyming wedding

They had brains in their head. They had feet in their shoes. They could steer themselves in any direction they choose. They weren’t on their own, and they knew what they know. And they are the guys who’ll decide where to go. A love monkey came by, a shoe had inspired, and guests were surprised by all that transpired. Cake balls were eaten, an orange suit was worn, and a love that lasts forever was born.

Karly & Jack’s vintage-inspired Alice in Wonderland wedding

Vintage book centerpieces, Alice in Wonderland details all over the joint, a vintage-style dress, and a butterfly cake (and bouquets!) make us salivate over the little things in this wedding. A drop-dead gorgeous venue sure didn’t hurt, either. Plus, there are total lessons to be learned about having your partner help in planning and dealing with a venue coordinator. Look and learn!

Technicolor Muppet madness at this Austin wedding

Never have I seen so much colorful Muppet hilarity in one wedding. (And we’ve seen some Muppets!). A Muppet cake (with awesome sheet cake alternative), Muppet felt bouquets, doppelganger hand puppets, and an ANIMAL BAND(!!) make Cristina and Trevor’s wedding a total nostalgia-fest. There were even felt Muppet eyes and props for the photo booth. Feast your eyes and get smacked in the face with color!

A scenic lakeside nautical wedding

Brittany and Judy, both looking as if they walked out of a magazine (including a super fab pantsuit that reminds me of this one), had their wedding at the equally drool-inducing Horseshoe Bay Resort in Austin, Texas. The views from the ceremony site will blow you away. Christina Carroll Photography captured the day and couldn’t help herself from getting into the joy and epic wattage smiles. Who could blame her? Now go check out the first look, matching bouquets, lakeside views, and nautical details.

Rita Marie & Sergio’s intimate celebration of marriage

Small and intimate weddings are often killer in that they let you focus on what and who really matters to you. This sweet and small wedding encapsulates that sentiment perfectly. They had a pre-wedding ring warming in their hometown in Texas and an eight-person ceremony and reception in San Francisco (which allowed the groom’s mom to officiate!).
