Megan & Jay’s last-minute change solstice wedding
Sometimes you plan an intimate NOLA elopement, and sometimes life gets in the way. So when life prevented this couple from doing just that, they decided to plan an elegant hometown wedding with friends and family instead. And this beach-side family party with stone warming ceremony is just perfect for our Simple Weddings week.
Lane & Jason’s folk village cultures collide wedding
This couple blends Indian cuisine, fairies, bellydancers, Rajasthani and Tunisian dancers, fire-spinning and yes, Salt-N-Pepa’s “Push It” on accordion, into a medley of colors and flavors too awesome to be kept indoors. They had to carve a place in Wisconsin’s Driftless Region to hold all of this inspiration.
Gus & Joey’s super budget vegan queer love-fest wedding
With a budget the size of one month’s rent, this thrifty couple capitalized on the talents of friends and family to create an intimate and musical wedding with vegan flair. Their outdoor ceremony may have been rained out, but the indoor alternative amplified the music and they preferred it in the end. Crisis averted.
Vanessa & Derek’s geeky vintage bear-y jokester wedding
Everyone likes a bride in a cake hat and a groom in Chuck Taylors. And if their vows don’t make your weep, you’re a robot from outer space. Wanna know where the wild things are? This wedding.
Allison & Jason’s spiritual, frickin’ cold, tango-infused wedding
Day 3 of Kilt Week = awesomeness. Royal blue dress + purple kilt = total awesomeness.
Angel & Dave’s old-school glamour, “Dangelous” backyard wedding
Instead of choosing a theme, Angel & Dave just went with what they wanted. It resulted in a red, black and silver themed outdoor wedding in Angel’s grandparents’ backyard. The funniest part was when their son Trent interrupted the ceremony by making laser noises with a big stick and said, “Don’t worry mommy, I busted all the ghosts.” Adorable!
