Shana & Micah’s Victorian wedding with a dad-moon

Give us a mantilla veil, a mansion filled with light and foliage, a bagpipe anthem at the end of the ceremony, and two lovers who finish each other’s sentences. Oh, and just wait until you see the handmade dad-moon that represented the bride’s father. I’m not crying, you’re crying!

Jessica & Robin’s cafe wedding with a musical surprise

A torrential rainstorm couldn’t hold back this couple from their music-loving wedding with a serendipitous second-hand wedding dress find. Oh, and there may have been a huge surprise at the reception involving a band, a full choir, and some American Idiot.

Charlie & Blaine’s 1950s style skull wedding

Glittery skulls, bangin’ victory rolls, and some AMAZING shoulder jewelry make this outdoor love fest into a chic little retro-inspired wedding. And don’t miss the candle unity ceremony (with grandmother cameos!), a flower girl who totally nailed her job, and a Corvette entrance to the ceremony.

Abby & Steve’s heartfelt friend-powered wedding

If you’re in the mood for GIANT crepe paper flower bouquets, a sweet and impromptu first look, and a couple super obviously and deliriously in love, then this wedding is your jam. Oh, and this bride’s experience with a day-of coordinator (who we know well!), is invaluable. And you’ll love the song that they kind-sorta accidentally danced to for their first dance!
