Sure Thing Chapel (and their second location, Sure Thing Too) in Las Vegas has become somewhat of a pilgrimage spot for alt couples who want a kitsch, quirky Vegas wedding. We see a lot of weddings in this space. We’ve featured weddings with rhinestones, leather, Hellvis, pink suits, black veils and every combination possible. Then Zuza and Marcin walked in and the way Tree of Life Films & Photos captured them almost shifted the room into something new. We are totally obsessed with these photos and we think you will be too.Read more...

Becky and Ran refused to hand their wedding over to anyone else’s version of “how it should be”. The bride knew she wanted to wear black, DIY as much as possible and to not spend a fortune on the things they didn't care about. Almost everything was made by them or by the people who know them best. The décor, the flowers and the stationery were all put together by the couple, and the cake was a sheet cake from Costo which cost just £15!Read more...

The Lobsters for Life Wedding Fair in The Netherlands pulled in makers, creatives and couples from across Europe last month and gave us a look at how alt weddings are evolving outside the UK. We were so excited to be invited along and spent the day meeting vendors who are pushing ideas forward with real intention. If you missed it and you are planning something unconventional on European soil, this shoot brings that same vibe straight to you! Every look, prop and detail was created by vendors from the show and most of them work with couples all over the continent.Read more...

Caoimhe and Boris wedding theme was simply ‘how can we make this day feel fun and stress-free but also somehow pull off it looking cute!?’ "I wanted the day to feel like me, and normally when I saw weddings online they never did", the bride told us. "I’m not a white roses, big white wedding kind of girl and dreaming of a big white wedding was never something I did."Read more...

Tracy and Dave live on a narrowboat and decided to push their nautical life to its most playful extreme for their wedding. The Golden Age of Piracy gave them everything they needed as inspiration.Read more...

Lucy and Buzz were massively inspired by Rock n Roll Bride for their bold and unapologetically 'them' wedding. "The suits, the bike machine everything was Rock n Roll Bride in mind!" Lucy told us. "I adore your magazine and have for years!” But their wedding was ultimately for them, we just gave them permission to really go full throttle into what they already knew they wanted.Read more...

Kaley and Philip built their Tennessee wedding around the idea of something that felt Southern and gothic with Addams Family undertones. The bride had always pictured an autumn or winter celebration with deep colours, heavy foliage and romantic gothic styling. However, the date ended up being June because it marked the start of their relationship. They didn’t shift the aesthetic to match the season though - they held on to the mood that felt right for them.Read more...

Jody and Riyston climbed a lifeguard tower in Ibiza as part of their wedding photos. Not the kind of image they might have imagined years ago, but that was the point. Their elopement was designed to be unpredictable and playful, inspired by Vegas weddings and shaped entirely around them. After Ibiza, they returned to London for a second ceremony and reception with family and friends.Read more...

When Nosferatu flickered back onto cinema screens, Lauren from Nick and Lauren Photography left the theatre feeling inspired by the film’s shadowy beauty. “I was inspired by the cinematography used in the movie, and wanted to do a wedding shoot that emulated that same aesthetic, but without being vampire based,” she told us. “We decided to combine the elements of country meets alternative, and started joking about what Nosferatu's wedding would look like if it were in the West. Everything snowballed from there!”Read more...

This wedding shoot was a riot of neon lights. Born inside the restless brain of Brooke Conaway, founder of CAT HAUS Collective, she wanted to create something that was the opposite of boring and beige. With a Lady Gaga lookalike bride, she built this shoot as an act of rebellion - against conformity, perfectionism, and the wedding industry’s obsession with fitting in. “I’m not a traditional wedding planner,” she said. “I have ADHD, I’m plus sized, an advocate for LGBTQA+ and someone who has had to fight to ‘fit in’ including how to work with my chaos brain, not against it.”Read more...

Em and George wanted their wedding to feel lived in, bathed in the Autumn light with lots of antique details. They found their perfect setting at Ashridge Great Barn in Devon, a rustic spot that already matched their aesthetic. “One of the reasons we fell in love with the venue was because they had the same stoneware jugs that we had already started thrifting from car boot sales,” said Em.Read more...

Let’s be honest, no one wants another bottle opener with someone else’s initials on it. This rising trend isn’t really a favour at all; it’s something your guests will actually want to keep.Read more...

Aimee and Onyx leaned fully into their shared love of fantasy aesthetics for their wedding. They wrote their vows in a cemetery (where they had their first date!) and were married surrounded by friends who camped out for the weekend. The day was romantic and a bit vampiric. In fact, they wanted their day to feel like it had been plucked straight from a gothic romance novel.Read more...

Garrett and Delaney’s Vegas wedding was just about having a weekend away with their families that felt easy and personal. They’d fallen for Sure Thing Chapel the moment they saw it and built everything else around that - hearts, pink, and whatever made them smile.Read more...

Part living room, part festival, all vibes. Bry and Jack's brief was simply, make it feel like us. Not the Pinterest version of them, but the real, human, slightly chaotic version. The one that thrives at festivals, loves a weird inside joke, and would rather be sat barefoot in the woods with friends than standing on ceremony.Read more...
