Their Punk Rock Wedding

Kat

September 16, 2009

This is going to sound more than a little bit weird but I almost don't want to blog these...because once I do it will be done and I will be sad that the anticipation, excitement and exhilaration (I'm a very dramatic person) I have been feeling leading up to posting these will be gone. Yes I am very strange... You might recognise Automne & Graham as one of the finalists in the Tinywater contest I ran a few months ago. As soon as I saw their entry I knew they were a completely awesome punk rock couple and that their wedding would be fab but OH. My. GOD nothing prepared me for this! I am so honoured and excited that the couple have chosen Rock n Roll Bride to be the lucky blog who gets to share their wedding and all the amazing details. Exclusives rock! I'm going to hand over to Automne to share all the details with you, and I'll be right back with the images...

Vintage Tea Party

September 15, 2009

After the immense Blog Land popularity (in fact bordering on obsession!) of Ben Blood's last wedding (the gorgeous treehouse affair) I was over the moon this morning when Ben sent me his newest triumph for an exclusive an first blog on Rock n Roll Bride! Karley & Scott had a beautiful vintage tea party style wedding complete with genuine vintage finds, a vintage style gown and beautiful yellow shoes.

Retro Rockabilly

I am absolutely crazy in love with Jessica & Dave's retro rockabilly wedding!Not wanting to stick to tradition, Jessica & proposed to Dave over a jungle themed cake! She explained: The couple chose Round Hill, Washingtonville, New York as the venue because they wanted a place that they didn't have to do much to but would still reflect their personalities.

Love, Love Me Do…

Courtney & Justin had an eco friendly wedding at The Old Mill in Rose Valley, PA. We were amazed with the subtle natural aesthetic and the charming vintage vibe. It is a historic mill that sits in a rhododendron-lined woodland valley right alongside Ridley Creek the couple explained. For the first 3 months of wedding planning, I scoured the internet looking to purchase for anything wedding related – used dresses, used décor, you name it! I hit the jackpot when a bride from Philadelphia posted an ad on Craigslist selling all the décor used in her “Rustic Vintage” wedding. I bought all of her wedding decorations, including: • Vintage mason jars, antique medicine bottles, and painted metal charger plates used for the table centerpieces. • Green and brown ribbon boards (a DIY project) which were used to hold the place cards • Metal lanterns which our florist used to create an amazing display of artistic genius (see Flowers, below) • Hand crafted table numbers made from framed wooden numbers on a fabric backing I loved the glass and metal and DIY spirit of the décor – it fit our style perfectly, it fit our color scheme perfectly, and it was an eco-friendly reuse of someone else’s wedding items! In fact, we are planning to sell the décor items so that another eco-conscious bride can reuse it all for her own wedding. It’s exciting to think that those items will create happiness for another bride! Courtney's dress was from Adele Wechsler’s line of eco-friendly dresses. Initially she discovered she couldn't afford her perfect dress but lucky for her at Philadelphia's UnBridaled Expo Adele was giving away a gift certificate for one of her dresses and guess who won!? Clearly it was meant to be. The succulents they used were bought from a local garden centre and were put together with moss and flowers collected from various friend's gardens to give a unique and natural look. For all the rest of their eco details, be sure to check outLove Me Do's Blog, (thank you to Amanda & Carina for sharing as usual!) but for now...

Face Painting & Celebrating

Kat

September 13, 2009

When it comes to the topic of children atweddings there are usually two rival camps. The first op for a more grown up affair, favouring a lack of screaming kids throughout the vows whereas the other tends to embrace the screaming and go all out to make the children a big part of their day. Anna & Mike certain seem slap bang in the middle of the latter group. Their beach wedding was full to bursting with fun and games for the children, from elaborate face painting to making them a key part in their ceremony. Thanks to photographers Tiffany & Jared for sharing these day with us Credit: Style.ish

Steampunk Victorian Beach on a Budget

Kat

September 13, 2009

If you want to see some of the most beautiful floral details and centrepieces ever plus some pretty damn stunning beach portraits then you've certainly come to the right place! Meghann & Edwin planned their Steampunk-Victorian-Beach-on a budget wedding with help from all their friends and family - DIY was the name of the game! I am totally in love with all their decor ideas and the beautiful floral details - this wedding proves that you can make anything look bloody amazing if you have the time and patience to do it yourself. They spent only about $200 on flowers and decor and went to The LA Flower Market the day before to get the blooms. Meghann explained:

Tattooed Lovelies Get Wed

Kat

September 11, 2009

Oh..just wow. As soon as I laid eyes on Cameron & Mike I knew I had to feature them on Rock n Roll Bride. Can you blame me? Cameron looked just like a movie star and Mike looks so in love it can't help but make me smile! Mike, a tattoo artist in Florida even proposed to Cameron by tattooing 'Will You Marry Me?' on his chest? Freakin' awesome or what?! That's some serious commitment - he must have been pretty sure she would say yes

Krista & Uryah had a 1920s style wedding in Snohomish, WA. As a professional seamstress, Krista planned and DIY'd the majority of wedding herself. I have a whole lot of love for this set - her shoes, her back lace umbrella, the cigarette holders - classy and wonderful! Thanks to Claire for sending me these. Mwah!

Punk Rockers

Kat

September 9, 2009

Erika & Chris tied the knot at Salt Lake's legendary Ruth's Diner which is now owned by Erika's parents. The diner had never hosted a wedding before but suited the couple's laid back, rock n roll style down to the ground. Dispite living in relatively conservative Utah, it would seem that nearly every tattooed kid in the State was in attendance - from tattoo artists to punk rockers! Thanks to the hugely talented Ryan for sharing this day with us.

Celebration of Love

September 9, 2009

I apologise for my slight absence yesterday, I had a super busy day planning new ventures (eeek exciting!). I hope all my American readers had a fabulous Labor Day weekend but it has been rather lonely in Blog-land this past few days and I am glad you are all back! Let's get this show on the road shall we - as always, way too much gorgeousness to share today! Amber & Kwame has a stunningly simple and personal backyard wedding in Sidney just outside of Victoria BC. Their day was not about the bouquet and rings, but a calebration of their love and a big old reunion for all their friends and family. Thanks to Helene for these beautiful images - so much happiness!

Hawaiian Kitsch

September 7, 2009

Erica & Simon had a Hawaii wedding fit to bursting with gorgeousness. Erica's stunning dress was flown all the way from England (woohoo) for the event and was custom made for her by her sister-in-law. The couple had a tiki bar, a vintage Vespa and uber cute cupcakes, all with added to their Hawaii kitsch theme! Huuuuge thanks to Marina for sharing these with me. I adore them!

Her Own Style

Kat

September 7, 2009

As one of the most glamorous women in history isn't Marilyn Monroe a clear choice to emulate on your wedding day? As long as you put yourself into the style too of course! That is exactly what this Bride did. The red lips and the iconic dress marry perfectly with her own personal style. What's not to love I ask?! Thanks to Anna for all the sharing!

Woodstock Wedding

Kat

September 5, 2009

Oh. My. GOD! This hippy chic, picnic stylee wedding with a woodstock vibe is nothing short of phenomenal. Finding amazing hidden gems like this has got to be one of my favourite things to do. I feel as though I have unearthed a complete treasure. Forget everything you think you know about weddings. This celebration makes all that seem futile. Can you imagine being there? Cramming into a tiny tent, siting on your friends laps or on the floor just to see your best friend's get married. She's wearing a stunning vintage gown (which the little girls all clearly adore!) and he's wearing a fabulouslyretro velvet suit. And the car...and the swing...and the random panda head...oooh oooh oooooh! I want to go and run around a field like a child and celebrate the joy of love right now... Credit: Cory Kennedy

I posted a sneaky peak of this gorgeous wedding on both my Twitter and Facebook fan page a few days ago and have been simply dying to sharing more photographs and details of the whole shebang with you ever since! I am loving Steve's sharp Lord Willy's suit, Becca's adorable Priscilla of Boston dress... and isn't her bouquet one of the most amazing you've ever seen!? Credit: Love Me Do Photography

Tequila In Hawaii

Kat

September 4, 2009

Husband and wife team James & Bev just sent me these stunning Kikaua Point Beach wedding from May this year. I actually spotted some of these images on one of my many hunts for damn cool weddings and in fact begged them to send me the images of Amanda & Rob's big day. Me? play it cool?...certainly not! The couple had a Don Julio Tequila toast right after they said 'I do' (now I don't really know what this is, but I can only imagine it involved Tequila shots after the vows!) and Amanda wore are beautiful traditional Hawaiian dress called a mu'umu'u as her wedding gown and quite frankly looked stunning. A huge thanks to Bev & James for sending me these and letting me share this stunning wedding with you all! Credit: James Rubio Photography

Authentic Cowboy

Kat

September 3, 2009

Kimberly's vintage dress (from Timeless Vixen) is adorable for a number of reasons, but I especially love how it is an absolutely perfect match to Anthony's way too cool authentic vintage cowboy shirt! In fact the whole wedding was based around his very special outfit - who says it's all about the Bride? Thanks to the gorgeous Noa for sharing... Credit: Feather Love Photography
