Alexa & Wale’s vibrant Nigerian engagement and minimalist Unitarian nerdfest
You may recognize this pair from Alexa’s Nigerian engagement ceremony bridentity crisis, and we just had to see how it all turned out. It’s a two-ceremony mega-mash of Nigerian and American culture including handmade geles (Nigerian head wraps), geeky details, a sweet candle ceremony, and some flubbed vows that are too funny to miss.

Ashley & Eric’s Wedding in a Bar
What’s a kick-ass way to arrive for your wedding at a bar? In a bitchin’ party bus!

Check out their alternative guest books, ticketed seating arrangements, and one flower girl’s adorable pout.
