Lari & Andrew’s elegant DIY wedding with a surprise parade

If you want to be surprised at your own ceremony, it definitely helps to know a former stand-up comedienne to officiate and bring the lulz. And she didn’t fail them with secretly written abbreviated stories of the lives of the couple. A surprise Dia de los Muertos parade, some clever DIY, and a classy venue — even the shoes say “Hell Yes!”

Emily & Bill’s rainy and cozy camp chapel wedding

A very cool Texas guest book, a Bender card box, towers full of homemade cupcakes (and zombie cupcakes!) , and all the ladies wearing cowboy boots: it’s a feast for the eyes! Plus, they shared not only a first dance, but THE very first dance ever together. And if all that isn’t enough, there’s a cute pooch wearing a bow tie. You’re hooked now.

Jenifer & Shawn’s last-minute backyard BBQ wedding

A vintage dress to die for, a heart theme (including awesome headpiece!), fun with piñatas, and the sweetest homemade book about their relationship — you’re in for a backyard wedding with a ton of heart(s). These two moved their wedding date up seven months to coincide with a birthday party and Easter weekend, which left them with only days to finish. But finish they did, and you’ll want to see the result.
