You are going to love Gemma and Joe's colourful, kitsch and retro-inspired wedding. The Irish couple hosted their wedding in the south of France in September.

Rooftop Mosaic

February 20, 2016

Robert and Katy's Scottish wedding was themed around lots of different things but skulls and 80s movies played a big part! "The wedding theme turned out to be a bit eclectic, with elements Robert loved like 80s films (they were our table names), a pork pie wedding cake and elements that had a slightly gothic feel such as a skull centrepiece at the head table and 'til death do us part' favour boxes."

Raisa and Maite, two creative and edgy girls from Holland and Germany, were married outside in August. "The overall theme was a vintage and 'til death do us part," they said. "We also had touches of a festival theme and lot of skulls and skeletons in all the props, stationery and on the cakes. We tried to make it as colourful and fun as possible. Maite has a thing for skeletons and skulls, and Raisa loves festivals and the circus so we wanted to mesh the two together."

Amy and Ryan wanted a sweet, nostalgic and happy wedding. They were married at Star Hill Ranch in Austin, in March. "I originally wanted a ceremony at our house, but there was no way we could ﬁt everyone, so we brought elements of our home to the venue", Amy said. "We both love mid-century ascetics, but didn't want it to be too kitschy or overdone. One guest described it as 'if Wes Anderson remade Steel Magnolias' which is a fantastic compliment if not just a really, really good idea."

February 2, 2016

I think at some point or another throughout their wedding planning, most brides throw their hands up in the air and shout "Screw it! Let's just elope!!" Whether it's the mounting costs, your parents driving your bonkers or the fact that you're spending more time than can be considered sane panicking over DIY projects, I'm pretty sure its a common fantasy for a lot of engaged folks.

Inspired by Wes Anderson, Jennie and Fergus planned a quirky wedding at Camp and Furnace in Liverpool. "Our wedding was Wes Anderson themed in the sense that small nods ran through the venue decoration, entertainment and outfits", the groom explained. "We're both massive fans of his films and the level of set design minutiae that goes into them lent itself quite nicely to an underlying theme for a wedding."

Jenny and Steve were married at The Electric Cinema, the UKs oldest cinema, in Birmingham. "We'd have loved to have a festival style wedding", said the bride. "We love going to festivals, seeing live music and I'm a big hippy at heart. However due to our budget and in the light of keeping things simple and as stress-free as possible, we had to ditch this idea."

Nicole and James set £5000 as the budget for their September wedding, and remarkably they actually spent less than that!
