Audrey & Etienne’s French cheese-loving wedding at a ski resort

Let’s travel to France for, oh, just a little ol’ wedding in a ski lodge in the Alps. It’s complete with cheese-laden catering, a hot chocolate bar, and geeky Star Wars details to make sure that we’re all over this. Your foodie/geeky/dream vacation is here in wedding form, my friends. As if you needed any more temptation, you’ll want to see how they picked their honeymoon destination and how the bride gets everyone’s attention for her speech!

A colorful gothically delicious wedding in Newfoundland

Are you up for an elegant industrial goth fix? Today is your day. Ashley and Paddy ooze delicious and colorful gothic energy in their ’til death do us part-themed wedding in Newfoundland. We got to see how these style mavens put it all together: think bright dreads + mohawk, black Utilikilts, combat boots, and even some little peacock feather accents, all layered on a purple and blue backdrop.

Brenda & Julio’s video game wedding

Sonic the Hedgehog blue and Yoshi green are in every facet of this gamer wedding. The drinks — yoshi-tini anyone? — the cufflinks, the escort cards, the card box…. it’s all got a bit of the Sonic the Hedgehog blue and Yoshi green, and a LOT of the AWESOME.

A swanky Brooklyn lesbian loft wedding with lots of tattoos!

Two white gowns + two hot ladies = too much for us to handle. The backdrop to this swank event was an old tobacco factory-turned-loft space, Deity Lounge in Brooklyn. The must-sees: lots of ink, personalized cake pops (get in my mouf), and some truly epic accessory bling. Plus, they had matching ring finger tattoos which were in addition to their rings, not instead.
