You’ve found a venue that will let you bring your dog, started looking at black wedding dresses and agreed that your first dance deserves a full emo moment. Then three supplier contracts land in your inbox at once, someone needs a deposit and your mum wants to know whether you’ve booked transport. Wedmin can be an instant vibe killer. The bad news is it can not be avoided but putting a few practical systems can help you get things moving, share the responsibility and protect some time for everything else in your life.

Medieval Tropical Wedding

Aurora and Thompson were married in Gainesville, Florida. Their day had a unique theme, Kermit and Miss Piggy leading the ceremony, and a guest list that stayed deliberately small. 35 guests attended and everyone stayed at the same bed and breakfast, owned by the bride’s aunt and uncle. Aurora described their theme as medieval tropical to anyone who asked, and guests dressed to match. Her gown was made by her mum and she bedazzled her own boots. All of the décor and flowers were DIY.

Rosie and Tyler met through Hinge. Four months later they got engaged and just ten months after they first started talking, they were married. "It was a whirlwind romance", Rosie told us. "We knew instantly we were best friends and soulmates - people told us we were being crazy but we didn’t care! We knew what we knew. We heal the broken parts of each other and and lift up the beautiful mess. It was young love found in a generational hellscape of toxic dating culture."

What to Expect When You Commission a Bespoke Wedding Dress

Guest Contributor

October 19, 2026

If you have a clear idea of what you want to wear, commissioning a wedding dress gives you a say in everything from the silhouette to the last stitch. A bespoke studio develops the design with you, then builds it around your measurements over a series of appointments. It’s a commitment of time, money and creative energy, so knowing how the process works helps. From decoding the terminology to finding a studio that gets your ideas, here’s what to expect.

Cleaning & Preserving Your Wedding Dress

Guest Contributor

September 16, 2026

After the wedding, a lot of dresses are shoved into the back of a cupboard without so much as a second thought. Whether you want to sell it, save it for your children, or even have it reworked to wear again, its really important to get it cleaned first. Even if it looks pretty clean, it probably isn’t. Sweat, sugar, alcohol, make-up, and dirt don’t always show up straight away, but they can cause discolouration and fabric damage over time. Times this by a thousand if your dress is white or ivory.

You’re going to have a wedding! Isn’t that the best thing ever? A whole day with everybody you adore, celebrating your beautiful love story. What could be more exciting and thrilling than that? For five years, I have written in this gorgeous magazine about how important it is to embrace this opportunity to have your day your way. I have sung from the rooftops about telling unsolicited opinions where to go. I have urged all rock ‘n’ roll brides to plan their weddings unapologetically. But, all along, I have never failed to add one teensy weensy caveat… Don’t be a dick about it.

Leah repeatedly referred to her wedding as a “fake wedding” because she and Mark skipped so many of the expected traditions that, apart from the legally binding bit, their day had very little interest in seeming like one. There was no aisle, personalised vows or first dance. There were six ceremony guests, several handmade outfits, competitive bingo and a table of temporary tattoos. It also happened to be on Leah’s 30th birthday! “I love my birthday but don’t love the idea of being centre of attention so thought what a good way to have a party, combine the two!" she said. "I got to spend the day with all my favourite people!”

If you're reading Rock n Roll Bride, its highly likely that you had an emo phase... but that actually it wasn't a phase at all.

If you love the idea of an emo themed wedding then read on because here's how you can pull it off without it just becoming a mid-2000s costume party.

Rather than focusing on a couple, or a single bride model, she called in help from a diverse collection of models and suppliers who she knew would help her celebrate inclusivity, creativity, and some really bold design ideas.
