Louise & Adam’s gothic fairytale wedding

It all started with a birthday card featuring purple and white dragons… and led to the gothic splendor that is this richly-hued fairytale wedding. There’s a little bit for geeks, a little bit for film buffs, and a whole lot for those in the mood for romance. And when you see the details of the rich purple taffeta custom-made dress, you’ll swoon.

Carol & Jonathan’s laid-back log cabin beach wedding

Sign us up for a mini-holiday wedding like this one any day: a small log cabin on the ocean in southern Scotland, bonfires, barbecue, bounce house, and loads of giggly, smiley love. If the scenery isn’t enough to get you going, the bride’s mum’s devil horns will! It was a small destination wedding with big, amazing DIY details.

Heather & Charlie’s moshing dodgem wedding

We’ve seen this bride’s homemade cake, but we hadn’t seen her epic, punk rock-loving wedding. The wait is over, so you’ll want to check out the retro fashion, insane makeshift mosh pit, and BUMPER CARS at the reception! Oh, and viewing the bride’s surprise wedding tattoo required a sexy-as-hell upskirt shot that we couldn’t help including.

Anna & Russell’s scientific gothic humanist wedding

A rockin’ red dress, a stack of chocolatey brownies, and a museum celebrating all things science? Check, check, double check! The Humanist ceremony upstairs in a library full of scientific texts, the reception downstairs among funky science installations, and a giant statue of a favorite scientist for photos ops round out this wedding’s fabulous setting. Read on for more… for SCIENCE!

Beth & Patrick’s homemade English wedding

Smooching in front of the Rolls Royce, wedding cheesecake, a cheeky flower girl, and a hand-made gown of awesome are just a few of the personal touches on this grand English wedding. You’re going to flip when you see the venue, the purple shoes, and of course, the loving looks…

Jess & Martyn’s inclusive budget-friendly wedding

This pair wanted LEGO details, a cow cake, an amazing green dress, and a VW van that may or may not make it to its destination, and nobody was getting in the way of those awesome plans. There may have been some hesitation from the peanut gallery, but once everyone saw the results, it was hard to argue that a good time was in store. OH, and the bride’s bow and veil headpiece might just have made it to the top of my favorites list.
