There were guests dancing before dinner to a favorite local band, kayakers watching the ceremony from the water, and, just when everyone thought the evening had settled into a reception, the newlyweds climbed into sea kayaks in full wedding attire and paddled around the boat. That surprise alone would have made this ferry boat wedding memorable, but it was only one part of a weekend designed to introduce friends and family to the Seattle Whitaker […]

Custom Attire from Beginning to End in this Multicultural Oklahoma Wedding
Guests watched Marie disappear from the reception more than once that evening, each time returning in something entirely different. She started the day in a sculptural Mikado wedding gown, later changed into a beaded reception dress made for dancing, then into a Vietnamese áo dài before ending the night in a Korean hanbok alongside Joseph. Every outfit had been custom made, and every change marked another part of the celebration. That thread carried through the […]

Then, just two hours before guests arrived, the clouds broke, revealing the sunset the couple had been hoping […]

The Dallas couple met at a mutual friend’s party in New York. When it came time to […]
This Tibumana Waterfall Elopement in Ubud, Bali Was an Intimate Family Affair
A 24-hour flight, a five-year-old flower girl, and a ceremony beside Tibumana Waterfall made Alissa and Daquan’s Bali wedding feel like a family vacation with a wedding built into it. Before they exchanged vows beneath the trees, their closest loved ones spent several days exploring Ubud together, visiting elephant parks, monkey forests, and local restaurants before gathering at the falls for an intimate ceremony. Global events nearly changed those plans. Flight cancellations meant several members […]
A Hidden Oklahoma Gem Made the Most Stunning Backdrop for an Elegant Spring Wedding

This Ayana Resort Bali Wedding Went From Breezy Cliffside Ceremony to Retro Theater Reception
