Major heart eyes for this Indian wedding at Burning Man
In the middle of the playa amid dust and love, Avni and Pavan rocked their most awesome outfits (a short white dress and white mehndi for her, a floral jacket and rad sunnies for him) to get married. This Indian wedding at Burning Man had an intimate feel despite it being at a hugh-jass festival of art and culture. If you’re not familiar with it, this archive will help.
Let’s peek at this gorgeous couple making it official in the desert of Nevada with their awesomely-clad pals…
We heart brides in glasses AND veils! Let’s see some faves…
This is a combination we LOVE: brides in glasses + veils! It’s a killer combination for looking sweetly vintage. And if your plan is a Juliet cap veil, then it’s all the better. I rounded up some of our favorite brides in both glasses AND veils to see what inspiration could be found. As a bonus, I’m also including some gorgeous Juliet cap veils that you can buy for your own wedding to wear with those glasses. Let’s get to the bespectacled cuties!
Why I’m keeping my wedding photos to myself (& off social media!)
Inviting people to your wedding who take blurry camera phone pictures of your first dance and your cake cutting and then put them on Facebook is the first lesson in wedding humility, letting your vanity go in cringe-inducing waves of overly indulgent boob shots and bad camera angles. The thing is, though, that I don’t owe my social media community anything more than that. After all, I am just a normal, average person. Our most extraordinary day was a mere blip on my newsfeed map, but for me, it was so much more than that; it was the start to a lifelong journey of which I can only hope to be nothing but happiness.
Grab a tissue: this LGBT Disneyland engagement story needs it
Ohana Photographers’ David got to shoot the Disneyland engagement session of his own daughter, April, and her partner Mariah. This is awesome and magical in itself, but he also wrote a pretty rad manifesto about it here. I couldn’t stop myself from stealing two little excerpts for you guys to enjoy, too. So read, grab a tissue, and then get to enjoying the sweet Disney-fied engagement of these two ladies.
