Natasha & Jordan’s Roaring Twenties theater wedding
This retro ’20s bash was held in a theater, had three headpiece changes (my kind of girl), and eclectic music (including a ceremony serenade from the bride’s father’s band!). And get ready to get a toothache from the tutu flower girls and kids reading Shel Silverstein at the ceremony. PLUS: a 1920s-themed photo booth makes everyone era-ready!
Kendall & Alex’s Portillo’s-fueled crafty wedding
After rejecting expensive catering, these two opted for a Chicago fave: Portillo’s! That plus awesome cupcakes, a cool non-cheesy DJ, and tons of origami flowers, and you have this sweet offbeat lite Midwestern wedding. We also learned from the bride that it’s okay to forget your lines in the ceremony.
Kelsey & Meghan’s classic happy-sappy wedding
These two ladies decided early on that priorities were key and they wouldn’t be going into debt from the wedding. And they were able to pull together a lovely ceremony and dancefest reception (with s’mores!). You might also never guess that the bride’s two dresses and all the dresses in the wedding party were handmade, too!
Stephanie & Zachary’s budget-friendly courthouse and pizza wedding
This week we’re celebrating intimate weddings with destination elopements, cozy city hall vows, and private romantic ceremonies. This time, the groom wore his Class A’s and the bride wore a short white dress to their courthouse ceremony with pizza and bar-hopping as the after-party. These two wanted a mid-week ceremony catered to their style, and they definitely did it. Low budget, high fun, epic pizza.
