Casual carnival madness and an interactive ring warming
Meg and Carrie hosted a casual carnival-themed wedding in Meg’s parent’s backyard in New Hampshire, proving that backyard weddings can be kick-ass for budget and scenery. (Seriously, the greenery is making me long for warmer weather!) Plus, they put a really fun spin on a ring warming ceremony by making it “interactive.” Read on to see how they did it.
A literary Dinosaur wedding with a purple dress and a bad-ass blind bride
Check out Elsa’s awesome manifesto that challenges the WIC’s assumptions about what is “bridal,” to get to know this awesome bride. Then get a load of the dino and Doctor Who details, purple swingin’ dress, and “steamcane” that made this wedding fabulous.
Jaime & Thomas’ Groundhog Day ski lodge wedding
Trying to remember your wedding day is a great idea, but trying to relive it like in Groundhog Day — now that’s an epic goal. That, plus lots more movie references abounded (including a Harold and Kumar reading!) And wait until you see what activity was planned for post-ceremony fun. Here’s one hint: they’re surrounded by snow.
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.
