Hanging chandeliers and cowboy boots at this Texas rock ‘n’ roll wedding

Kim and Jeremy planned a fabulously rustic and country-inspired wedding in iconic Luckenbach, Texas under century old pecan trees and chandeliers. From the bride’s teal boots to the pair’s epic ink, the fashion and beauty is clearly apparent. But when you see the gorgeous decor including the chandeliers hanging from white fabric, the Mason jar wine glasses, and the door frame ceremony entrance, you’ll chant more more more. And we’re going to give it to you. Get ready to be wowed.

This pair knew eloping to Disneyland for Dapper Day was the magic idea

Steph and Shelby had watched a really beautiful elopement video a few years prior to getting engaged and had it in their heads since it was so intimate. When they actually got engaged, however, so many people were excited and asking about it that they completely froze on what to do. One day after a year or so into their engagement, Steph finally suggested eloping to Disneyland in California for Dapper Day. And it was set: a tiny ceremony and mini honeymoon in the most magical place on Earth.

Mass Effect meets Star Trek at this theatrical science wedding

Want to see what you’d get if you combined a love of sci-fi, handmade costumes derived from characters in Star Trek and Mass Effect, and a movie theater venue? You’d have this theatrical science wedding with awesome visuals, amazing sci-fi readings, and a team of “Squadmates.” Though they may have run into some technical issues at the ceremony, it was all worth it for the groom’s grandmother’s comment: “Weddings keep getting weirder.” Hell yes, they do!

Lisa Frank colorful wedding as seen on @offbeatbride

Lisa Frank would approve of this super fun colorful wedding

Jenn and David’s first date had video games at an arcade and their second date was Disneyland. They embody “grown, but never grown up” and wanted their Bard Mansion wedding in California to be as colorful and full of childlike wonder as they are. Jenn has rocked purple hair for almost a decade, develops color cosmetics for a living, and still rocks Lisa Frank school supplies on the reg. Was this wedding colorful? Oh hell yes it was. Lisa Frank, The Lorax, and rainbows themselves have nothing on this super fun colorful wedding.
