Wednesday weddings: midweek magic or just cheaper champagne?

Saturdays have long been held hostage by the wedding industrial complex. Venues charge triple, photographers are booked years out, and you compete with literally every other engaged couple for that one sunset slot at your dream rooftop. But Offbeat Wed has been celebrating weekday wedding rebels for years.

What happens when a fire truck crashes a wedding? A little magic

You know we love us a sweet and tiny courthouse wedding. It’s one of our favorite kinds of small weddings and elopements! And this one has a little detail that we adored: a fire truck that was very special to the groom, a firefighter.

Their wedding day was seven years to the day of their first date. And it was on a Thursday! Now that’s how you get it done. Let’s take a look at this simple and elegant fire truck courthouse wedding in Raleigh, North Carolina.

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.
