With the groom being colour blind, and black the only colour he can confidently recognise, Belinda and Harvey used that as their starting point. Together, they built a monochrome wedding inspired by black and white Audrey Hepburn films and the desire to reshape classic wedding traditions into something with a little more edge.

Zoe and George wanted a good old-fashioned knees up. Their ceremony took place at Hackney Town Hall , a building they pass most weekends, followed by a reception at The Mildmay Club, a working men’s club George belongs to and that feels frozen in the 1970s.

Some weddings start with an aisle. Amelia and Bryson’s started with death.

Katelyn and Spencer planned their wedding a $5000 budget, a state park barn location, and a strong desire to have a day which felt just the right level of spooky. The bride has been reading Rock n Roll Bride since she was 14 (!!) so as soon as they got engaged she had plenty of ideas.

Getting engaged is the most exciting time. What’s less exciting is when you actually start planning the wedding and realise you might need to remortgage your house to pay for the damn thing. It’s no secret that weddings are expensive. No matter the size or style, they’re a luxury - and luxuries always come with a hefty price tag. It’s not that there are vendors lurking in the shadows waiting to rip you off. It’s just that this shit is expensive. It just is.

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.

Caridad and Frank chose a park in Bayonne, New Jersey as their wedding location because it felt like neutral ground. A place where they can just be without an audience. They didn’t want spectacle, or a big wedding. They wanted to make it official, take some photos, go home with their kids and eat dinner.

Tiny Wedding, Big Love: An Intimate Castle Elopement with a Dip in the Sea

Kerri and Katie knew they didn’t want a spectacle for their wedding. No themes, no overwhelming itinerary, no audience of distant cousins and plus-ones. Just them, two witnesses, and the Northumberland coastline stretched out behind the walls of Bamburgh Castle. They live by the sea, so choosing a venue that sat above the shoreline was less about grandeur and more about feeling like home. “We knew we wanted a small intimate ceremony with our best friends and minimal details to worry about so we could have the focus of the day be us and our love for each other”, they said.

There's nothing we love more than a wedding that feels like a true extension of the couple getting married. One that represents who they are and what they stand for. That's exactly what Zoë and Jack did. They built their wedding from the ground up. Literally.

Jade and Simon’s took over Cultplex in Manchester for their wedding ceremony, turning the stage in front of the big screen into their altar. As the bride is polyamorous, this wasn't about tradition or legality - in fact the ceremony was not actually legally binding - all they cared about was creating something that felt collaborative and real. The bride's other partners were also involved in the day, acting as their officiant and doing readings. With a budget of just £3,000, they pulled off a wedding that was totally DIY.

Marie and Doug wanted a wedding that made sense for their lives, not one that fit into anyone else’s idea of what a wedding should look like. They both have ADHD and found the process of planning a wedding overwhelming, so instead of trying to fit themselves into a mould that didn’t work, they built a day entirely around their needs, energy levels and comfort.

Ruby and Rebecca’s wedding was a perfect collision of dark romance and pop-star sparkle. They tied the knot at their local town hall before heading to the Stock Exchange Bar in Haven, for a reception that felt equal parts gothic soirée and Taylor Swift fever dream. “We wanted to incorporate Ruby’s love of everything gothic and my love of Taylor Swift,” Rebecca said. “We kept the colours and theming dark but the welcome signs and mirrorballs everywhere were themed for Taylor.”

Liz was working as a wedding photographer and renting an office space in a tattoo studio in Philadelphia when she met Sheep, an English tour manager passing through town. She wasn’t even supposed to be in the shop that day, but the studio owner whistled her over to introduce her to his friend. Ten minutes of small talk, Sheep walked out and asked for her Instagram. Liz remembers prancing around the studio after he messaged, while the owner called it: “Y’all are either going to have one date and never see each other again or you’re gonna get married, I’m calling it.” I guess they were right!
