One Damn Cool Wedding

Kat

July 1, 2009

That is the only way I can describe this wedding. I am swooning as I type away. Jenny & Johnny are way too stylish and way too cool, their hair ROCKS (I wish I had the balls for a cut like Jenny's - mohawks are hot!) and of course their tattoos look awesome (Jenny is a hairdresser and Johnny is a tattoo artist, can you tell!?) In fact I don't think their is anything I don't like about this wedding - Jenny's vintage dress = gorgeous, the flower girl = cute (dress from etsy) the ring ninja (oh yes, no ring bearers here) = beyond wicked. One of my favourite details had got to be their unique guest 'book', an original piece art work designed by Johnny of the two of them, that each guest signed. The couple tied the knot in Rosa Parks Circle in downtown Grand Rapids. There had never been a wedding held here before as it is usually used for concerts and festivals in the summer and as an ice rink in winter. For more, be sure to check out photographer Jill's blog and the couple's slideshow eeek! Thank you so much to Jill for sending me these, you have made my month!

Hat, Park, Dog!

I think this wedding is quite different to the style I usually favour, but I still love it! The hat reminds me of going to English weddings where all the ladies wear big adornments on their heads. Photographer Courtney, described this day to me: Megan and Norm were married on May 30, 2009 at Willow Park in Louisville, Ky. That had no attendants, except for their "ring dog" Misha. Megan didn't opt for traditional hand-held bouquet instead chose to compliment her outfit with a huge, gorgeous hat. The Bride and Groom opted to accent their wedding with fleur-de-lis, a symbol of Louisville. While the guests noshed away on vegetarian friendly fare, trashcans were adorned with signs informing everyone that all the serving ware was fully biodegradable. The music before the ceremony and during the ceremony was provided by local musician friends, and the guests danced during the reception to the musical stylings of a ragtime band, Rascals of Ragtyme.
