I knew Amy & Jesse’s wedding would be off-the-hook with it’s intense awesomeness as soon as I saw and blogged their engagements a while back. Surely a couple this offbeat and rockin’ couldn’t have anything but a super crazy, kooky, inspirational and incredible wedding day could they?
However, even I was blown off my chair when I laid eyes on these little beauties. Their DIY, carnival wedding was not only ridiculously creative and awe-inspiring but the couple themselves literally looked like a candy covered explosion of kick ass attitude and fun all over! (By the way I fully realise that my explanation of my thoughts on this wedding probably make little or no grammatical and linguistical sense – however my intense excitement over getting to blog these appears to have rendered by logical brain dysfunctional!) Got it? Right…on with the show…
A HUGE Rock n Roll thank you to Marina of Red Heart Photography for sending these over. I couldn’t wait to blog these (as always) and so the photos below are actually only part 1 & 2 of her posts. Go check out her blog over the next few weeks for even more eye candy!

wow skott thanks for your comment. thats amazing! sounds like the BEST wedding ever!!
-
As one of the groomsman, i feel so blessed to be a part of this. By far the best wedding I’ve ever been to. The photos came out way better then i thought photos could even come out.
For those of you who are curious: about 3-4 months of prep went into making all the decorations. It took about 20 of us about 6 hours to set everything up. After that, we danced all night long to Haberdashery (a local band) and then an amazing DJ with the perfect selection of songs. Clean up took about an hour.
And for the record, it was an alcohol free wedding.

Fabulous concept!!! I love the Americana Carnival concept, bravo!

Fantastic and funny
I love this dress!!!!! -
Sooo wish I could’ve been there…it looks like so much fun and the Bride n Groom look so in love. The concept is gnarly-just like the wrist bands

I dont know which was better.. the wedding or the tatts…
congrats to you both.
