Nicole & Adam’s lunchtime guitar-igami wedding

We teased this couple’s adorable crocheted dessert table toppers earlier this week and now we’ve got the whole story! We’re talking a self-catered fajita bar, suuuuper sweet serenades from the groom AND the bride’s father, and a last-minute rain break for an awesome outdoor ceremony. And just wait until you hear what the officiant did during the epic-length first kiss!

Pink and orange with heart-shaped sammies on top

I’m in love with these geeks in love and their wedding in Arizona. And with their pink and orange happy-pants color scheme. And with the bride’s tea-length dress that shows off her ink (that also matches the peacocks strutting around. AND we love their tiered Rice Krispy treat cake. My relationship with it is getting serious. We may be thinking a marshmallow/me marriage. I think you’ll love it, too, so make yourself a heart-shaped PB&J, get to scrolling, and take it all in.

Charlie & Quinten’s barefoot faux-forest indoor picnic wedding

Tons of handmade pillows, hay bales, leaves, and picnic blankets — it must be an outdoor wedding, right? Nope! But it may as well be. Due to some wet weather, these two brought the outdoors in for a green and brown faux-forest wedding. Even the flower girl and ring bearer got in on the theme action. Chalk up some bare feet, some lovely poetry, and a big ol’ party, and you’re ready for forest-y fun indoors.

Jenna & Scott’s dinos, Dorothy, and DeLoreans oh my! wedding

Dinos, Dorothy, and DeLoreans?! Yep, we’ve got an awesome natural history museum full of dinosaurs, ruby red Dorothy slippers, and Back to the Future in their trivia game. OH, and don’t let me forget the EPIC DeLorean cake! It will make your ’80s-loving day. Plus, you’ll love how they chose their wedding date. Spoiler: it was to make one of them right!
