This wedding was a union of Egyptian Gods and an invocation of Earth's elements

This wedding was a union of Egyptian Gods and an invocation of Earth’s elements

The theme of this wedding was Egyptian Gothic & Frog and Toad are Friends. The grooms described it as “a union of Egyptian Gods and an invocation of Earth’s elements,” so you’re in for some meaningful and amazing ceremony rituals. Plus, you’ll love the reception details like the marble cake with lemon lavender frosting that looked like a birch tree!

A nerdy wedding in Washington with nods to LotR, Star Wars, and Harry Potter

A nerdy wedding in Washington with nods to LotR, Star Wars, and Harry Potter

This tattooed pair was all about highlighting some geeky details at their nerdy wedding in Washington. The Hobbit Hole venue, their Harry Potter meets LotR meets Star Wars favor packages, and their killer styles all made us so giddy to see what they had going on in this wedding. It was simple, it was personal, and it had PIZZA. You’ll want to see this nerdtastic wedding…

A vintage Halloween spooky wedding

A vintage-inspired Halloween wedding ball (with classic horror movie photo booths!)

Christina and Edward adore Halloween, and combined a meaningful ceremony with a grand Halloween wedding ball like pros. There were huge replicas of vintage monster movie posters, old black and white monster movies, and tons of costumes.

Whatever you do, don’t miss the life-size caskets built by the couple’s families that had life-sized bride and groom skeletons inside and a sign that read, “Till Death Do Us Part Is For Quitters.” HA!

A queer femme/transfeminine interfaith feminist celeGAYtion

It was important to both of us to represent both of our faith traditions, and to incorporate our vibrant, polyamorous, queer, trans communities as much as possible. My partner is a bearded, genderqueer, transfeminine person, and it was really important to us to be visible and proud about our relationship because so many people think that people like us can't (or don't deserve) to find love and happiness. Caleb rocked a gorgeous wine-colored wedding dress, while I went with a more traditional white gown, and we did our damndest to show the world that love like this will not be hidden.
