BIPOC

Based on reader feedback that it was “hard to find any weddings of people of color,” we started tagging posts that featured a BIPOC bride and/or groom — and/or means you’ll find tons of interracial couples in here! Increasing visibility for BIPOC folks has been a priority for us since 2008, and note that we always allow folks to self-identify. More about how and why we do this here.

Kate & Nate’s dark blue wedding with shoe games

The bride may have worn an awesome dark blue dress that became the color inspiration for everything else, but the most fun to be had in this wedding was the photo booth, hidden gem venue, and the shoe game! They were a little worried about their first dance since they never practiced, but winging it looked like a hell of a good time.
