Annie and Jose had a multicultural midweek wedding under towering redwood trees.

They also used their communities to make the wedding a labor of love with DIY flower arrangements, makeup and hairstyles, and lots of decor elements. Don’t miss their guest book art project and golden dinosaurs, too!

Don’t miss the super sweet baby’s breath flower crown, the paper-meets-real flower bouquet (with family pictures attached!), the family heirloom watch worn by Mandi from Jake’s family, and some subtle Harry Potter detail magic.

Sarah and Bob wanted their wedding to have a vintage circus wedding theme. They also wanted it to feel timelesswith elements of Vaudeville, burlesque, pin-up, and Tim Burton, too. Step right up and be prepared to lose your shit over this one, folks. Sideshow acts, state fair food, a bulldog in a tutu… it’s getting wild and woolly and we love it.
