Amber and Christopher are a couple who weren’t afraid to buck tradition so an intimate wedding ceremony, held at the oh-so-cool Neon Graveyard in Las Vegas was perfect for their glam, retro inspired day them!

“We wanted a wedding that was more ‘us’ and was fun”, Amber told us. “We don’t really love dancing or the traditional wedding activities. We were married by an Elvis that we didn’t tell our guests about beforehand! We asked our guests to wear their Vegas best which included feathers, sequins and fun prints.”

The bride’s mum made the bride’s faux flower bouquet and the bride designed her own dresses! “I had a really hard time finding a Vegas-y dress that I loved. Even though I have design degree II did not want to take on a sewing project and plan a wedding at the same time so I designed my silver dress and had it made and then I just added feathers to the white dress.”

“Don’t feel obligated to do what other people expect”, she advises in conclusion. “We didn’t and we had so much fun. I feel like staying true to yourselves is important. Our 41 guests also had a great time and are still telling us it was the best wedding they have ever been to!”
