Their celebration, held at the Baltimore Museum of Art, was pure art in itself, weaving together Sapphic energy, classical music, and special personal touches.Read more...

Emma and Alex's summer wedding was held at the New Orleans Museum of Art, with the ceremony outside in the sculpture garden. The bride opted to wear yellow, with the groom in statement suit with custom appliques and a bolo tie hand-carved for him by his grandfather. Their theme, a blend of disco and classic country influences, was inspired by the venue's colourful surroundings as well as their desire to have a wedding which was true to them rather than following trends.Read more...

Paige and Rick described their wedding theme as 'a wedding in Wonderland' and they were inspired by a version of Lewis Carol's Alice in Wonderland illustrated by Salvador Dali. They used the book's illustrations as inspiration for their different centrepieces, various decor and overall funky feel. They wanted the visuals to inspire curiosity much like Dali himself and his artwork, and hoped their wedding would transport their guests down the rabbit hole to Wonderland...Read more...

An almost completely DIY wedding is impressive enough, but when you have such a theme as steampunk then I think it's doubly so! Alys and Stu were hitched last October in Manchester. The reception was held at the Museum of Science and Industry.Read more...

Teri and Carson planned their horror themed wedding completely by themselves. They also handmade everything from the bride's accessories (including her Slayer garter!) to all the flowers, and the stationery to all the reception décor. The wedding was held at the Orlando Science Center with the ceremony on the rooftop and the reception down with the dinosaurs!Read more...

David and David met online in 2006. They chatted for a few days and then had their first date at a local tapas restaurant. They both studied at the University of Manchester, so they chose the Museum at the university for their wedding venue. It is an amazing Victorian gothic building, and whilst they didn't really want a 'theme' per-say, there was definitely a scientific and national history thread running throughout the celebration.Read more...

New Year's Eve might not cross everybody's mind as a date to get married, but for Tyler & Martin it couldn't have been more perfect! "Martin and I are a little obsessed with The Flaming Lips," Tyler explained. "He introduced me to the band early in our relationship. He took me to my first show...it was New Years Eve, Halloween and pure happiness all in one night! I’ll never forget watching another couple get engaged that night and telling Martin that would be a pretty awesome way to do it. Apparently he filed that information away. A couple years later during our yearly pilgrimage to Bonnarooo, Martin proposed to me under a shower of confetti and balloons while The Flaming Lips played 'Do You Realize.' It was perfect."Read more...

Alix & Shawn were married in the Natural History Museum Los Angeles, and it was this unusual venue choice that really shaped their day. "Our wedding was a combination of historical vintage and handmade, " the bride told me. "The Museum set the stage to transport our guests to a different time and space altogether. They were surrounded by dinosaur bones, wild animal dioramas and a beautiful historic marble building."Read more...

Tim & Jodie were hitched at The Natural Science and History Museum in Denver and I am more that a little bit in love with them and their wedding. Not only becuase Jodie looks fabulous and the venue is a beaut, but becuase the idea behind their wedding was to celebrate more than just their love for one another...they celebrated their love for everyone! The couple explained, "We both agreed that the wedding was just as much about our friends and family as it was about us, so almost every detail was considered with our guests in mind. We looked at the wedding as our chance to throw an unforgettable party, and we definitely succeeded. It's hard to put my finger on one particular detail that made it so great, but we heard, "Best. Wedding. Ever." over and over again from guests, staff, and even the off-duty police officers who were working security. We tried to stick to a few basic tenets (emphasis on the "tried") and they included: Don't overthink it. Don't worry about "the rules". Don't do anything just to impress someone else. Do have fun."Read more...

Carl & Emilia's hipster wedding was held at The Museum of Modern Art, Stockholm, Sweden, which they chose for it's breathtaking view and because it is one of their most favourite places in the city. "We planned to have the ceremony outdoors in an adjacent garden," explained the couple. "Instead of sunshine however (which really is not asking to much even in Sweden that time of year) we got rain. Then we got even more rain and after that thunderstorms. Thus, we had to make some last minute changes i.e. move the ceremony indoors, but it all worked out perfectly thanks to our wonderful family and friends who gladly moved around all furniture. In the end the ceremony turned out even better than originally planned!"Read more...

Sara & Andy's mountain top wedding took place at Sapphire Point in Breckenridge, Colorado. They kept it intimate with only 50 guests to the wedding and reception, which was held at the Museum of Contemporary art in Denver. As well as keeping their wedding small and personal, the skipped a lot of the traditional fluff - for example instead of a cake they opted for ice cream sandwiches with sprinkles! They also didn't want (or need) to add any extra decor to their ceremony location or their reception venue as the surrounding countryside and the museums art work spoke for itself and complemented their unfussy theme perfectly. "We utilized the beauty of the spaces from the natural mountain top to the contrast of the modern space of the contemporary art museum to make the couples wedding photographs uniquely theirs" photographer Anna told me. "It was nice working with the two seemingly contrasting spaces to create wedding photographs that were cohesive and representative of the couples day, personalities and love for each other." Finally, Sara & Andy chose not to have any bridesmaids or groomsmen.Read more...
