Gwen & Mark’s geeky fantasy barn wedding

A countryside handfasting, geeky references all over the place, and sweet homemade touches (like the bride’s handmade dress!) — this UK wedding is a dream for geeky lovers of gorgeous scenery. Add in some giant lawn games like Jenga and Connect Four and this turned into a seriously fun fête. Keep a look out for the Blackadder reference in the unity ceremony, too!

Jess & Alex’s red and black goth geek wedding

A little goth, a little geek, and a teeny wedding for us to love. Don’t miss the awesome certificate of marriage, the very meaningful handfasting cords, the Gallery Serpentine custom corset dress, and the Minuscule-themed cupcakes. Plus, the bride shares some very handy advice if you’re planning on rocking a corset. Oh, and you’ll love the bride’s hilarious way of “proposing.” It worked!
