Mt. Ranier wedding as seen on @offbeatbride #washington #weddings

Be swept away by this ethereal winter shoot on Mt. Rainier

Did you say you wanted to see something breathtaking today? I’ve got something that will burn your eyes with beauty. Kendyl and Kiley are a seriously fabulous couple who wanted an equally fabulous photo shoot to celebrate their 2014 Justice of the Peace wedding in Washington. There was a winter weather advisory on Mt. Rainer the day of the shoot and they were set to get two feet of snow. Thankfully, Mother Nature handed them only a dusting that made the shoot ethereal as hell.

Video game-themed wedding

You HAVE to see the giant Stargate, light-up dress, and Minecraft cake at this video game-themed wedding

A light-up dress. A blinking tie clip. Centerpieces filled with D20 dice. Chicken and waffles on the menu. Kaylee’s parasol. A Minecraft cake so epic the guests didn’t realize it was cake. Mario and Luigi as ringbearers. Guests in costumes. A grand entrance through a giant Stargate. This geeky video game-themed wedding is an explosion of nerdy goodness.

Dramatically gorgeous dark fairy wedding

Unseelie royalty has arrived in their finery: a rich red gown, red and black leather, and lush florals at this dark fae wedding. The castle backdrop betrays their status among the other dark fae in the Unseelie court. Don’t miss this stunning wedding with visuals that will knock your socks off and geeky references to tickle your nerd bone.

Canoe lake wedding as seen on @offbeatbride

A canoe entrance, a dock jump, and a breastfeeding mama round out this fab camp wedding

Gus and Ria were married at Camp Moran State Park on Orcas Island, where they camped and partied hard. Some of our favorite parts include the couple’s son Harlan breastfeeding before the wedding, the canoe entrance to the ceremony, and the joyous dock jump after! They quite literally took the plunge. The reception had dancing, s’mores, and even some skinny-dipping. All is right with this wedding.
