We're sent hundreds real weddings every month to consider for publication so I'm sure you can imagine it's quite hard to narrow them down sometimes... However there was no question in our minds when we clapped eyes on Alexa and Andries' two day celebration in South Africa. They decided to split the wedding in two, with an intimate church ceremony for just close family and a big reception for everybody else three days later.

Bentley and Lizzi are the perfect example of how doing your wedding, your way means your day will turn out amazingly! They ditched loads of the traditional elements that they didn't identify with or feel were important, and instead had a super relaxed ceremony at a family cabin on the coast, with celebrations on the beach.

Lucy and Rob's wedding was inspirational for so many reasons - not only was it a whimsical-meets-punk festival wonderland, but it was also totally fat-positive and body-positive experience.

Katherine and Jason's wedding was like something out of a movie, and was a real community effort. They rented a cabin for all their guests to stay in the week before. The day itself started with a first look, right by the water, followed by an intimate and nature-inspired ceremony. They served burritos and dessert bought from Costo and the day ended with them skinny dipping!

Rosie and Alex's beautiful early summer wedding was held at Hothorpe Hall in Leicestershire. The fantastic thing about their venue was that they were able to be married outside in the woodlands, like they always wanted. This helped to set the theme of their day.

Claire and Tom went for a Mexican/Day of the Dead theme for their July wedding. Complete with sugar skulls, piñatas, flamingos and sombreros, they planned their day with a £5000 budget. They also had a few geeky video game touches (particularly on their cake) such as Fallout and zombies and some Lego used in the terrariums!

Zoe and Perry's wedding was a minimal budget, maximum happiness kinda day. They created a laid back, fun, bohemian day with loads of cute, cheerful decor that was entirely 'Zoe and Perry themed', and overall they only spent about £300 in their own money, with the rest coming from donations and contributions from their pals.

When the bride runs a studio called Hello Sunshine, you might get the inkling that the wedding is going to be a beautifully sunny occasion. Well, Jo and Will's wedding day definitely delivered (as did the British summertime!) Their tipi wedding was a divine colourful, outdoorsy, gin-filled celebration. We're talking more gorgeous DIYs than you can shake a stick at and five food trucks. My kind of party...

Elissa and Joey's English garden wedding is a totally joyous, tear-jerker affair. And you know us, we're not about the clickbait life - it was genuinely a deeply emotional collaborative effort using as many beautiful homemade elements as possible. With that in mind, here's their theme, explained better than I ever could:

Hold onto your handbags because my goodness do we have an utter beaut of a wedding for you today! Jody and Shane were married last summer and it was GLORIOUS. They met at an alternative bar in Camden, "Not the most romantic setting. I was climbing a pole into the ceiling tiles, he came over interested in what this multicoloured haired ape was doing!" the bride laughed. "We danced on some tables, kissed and exchanged numbers - Love at first sight you could say!"

Aww Stacey and Ben might be one of the cutest couples ever. Their adorable wedding to end all adorable weddings took place in Melbourne and was packed to the brim with colourful and personalised details. From the DIY flowers, the rainbow balloon arch and the bride's gorgeous pink leather jacket and pink glitter trimmed veil combo - yep, there's so much to love in this incredible celebration.

Katy and Mark are my new best friends. No, but in all seriousness, their wedding looks like SO MUCH FUN and I think you're going to fall in love with them instantly. With a loose theme of colour and fun, a focus on it being a carbfest (we're talking fish and chips for and then Dominos later on) and eclectic and wonderful decor, it's a super beautiful and inspiring day by all accounts.

Lyndee and Connor's Omaha wedding was a stunning celebration of family, friendship and faith. With a loose theme of 'vintage glam', they had their ceremony in an old prebysterian church, built in the 1920s, before moving to 1000 Dodge, a fun industrial space for the reception.

Samantha and Mike were married in August and they had a few different priorities. They wanted to ensure that they didn't overspend (they rigidly stuck to their £11,000 budget), and they wanted the day to feel like them. They were hitched at Southwick D-Day Memorial Hall, which isn't a licensed wedding venue (so they did the legal bit a few days before) meaning they had a lot of freedom to do what they wanted on the day itself and it only cost them £750 to hire it for the whole weekend!

Jamie and Michael had two very different wedding celebrations -  a small family-focused event in the scorching heat in Malaga and a second a few weeks later, for all the rest of their friends and family back home in Belfast... in the rain! The two events couldn't be more different (the bride even changed her hair colour between the two!) but both felt completely right for them. After all, isn't that what being a Rock n Roll bride is all about?

Annabel and Nash met at a Halloween party in 2009, bonding over hungover KFC the next day, and their mutual love of skateboarding and mountain boarding! The couple also share a love of the outdoors, adventure and a laidback attitude to all that they do.

Inspired by punk rock, Day of the Dead and Culture Clash, Amy and Niall planned their August wedding on a £5000 budget. They included nods to their Scottish and Italian/Indian heritages as well as elements that defined them as a couple such as serving a fully vegetarian menu. The family-only ceremony was held at Bedford Town Hall with their low key, DIY reception hosted at The Pavilion in Bedford Park.

Gothic ‘Shit Show’ Ranch Wedding in Los Angeles

Vanessa and Vincent didn't want a theme for their October wedding, even going to far as telling people who asked that their theme was "shit show" (LOL) but undeniably, by bringing their own likes and personal style into their day, they created a wedding that reflected the bride's gothic aesthetic and the groom's family values.
