steampunk zoo wedding

Diana & Shannon’s steampunk zoo sci-fi wedding

This sci-fi and steampunk-loving wedding is so full of DIY projects and amazing sights, you’ll be pretty damn dazzled. Add in the amazing Beatles cover band, their “steampunk bling table,” and of course, the San Diego Zoo setting, and you’re in for animals, costumes, and a good ol’ time.

Caitlin & Patrick’s New York City Jazz and Art Deco wedding

A gorgeous green bouquet, succulent favors, a Jazzy venue, and a cameo from our own developer, Kellbot — this New York City wedding is the balm to our rough days. Plus, their friends’ video salute is one of the funniest we’ve seen. And just wait until you see how their portrait session was interrupted! Hint: it was a really sunny day!

harry potter wedding books

Casey & Chad’s family-friendly magical Harry Potter wedding

We love us some Harry Potter weddings for all the the fun details: owl save the date card, Marauders’ Map-inspired directions card, Daily Prophet program, Chocolate Frog favors, homemade ribbon wands, and of course, a huge, Harry Potter-themed sweets table! Just keep the underage wizards from the booze table!

sports themed wedding

Steve & Kimberly’s “sports bloggers in love” boat wedding

Rare is the time we get a sports-themed submission written by a Tribesdude! It was extra special since it merited a few legit happy tears during the “last dance” section. Come enjoy the boat venue, sweet H.P. Lovecraft-infused ceremony, whiskey ceremony, and impromptu karaoke session. Oh, and wait until you see what the bouquets were made of!
