When Alice and Amy envisioned their wedding day, they knew it wouldn’t fit neatly into tradition’s rigid mold. They wanted a day that reflected their love and individuality—one that embraced who they were as partners, best friends, and creatives. "We wanted a wedding that summed us up," Alice said.

Meghan and Chris’s November wedding was held at a gothic style mansion in the Catskills, New York.

They really tried to make it their own; the first dance, for example, was done behind a curtain with a spotlight so their 75 guests could only see their silhouettes. They also had a tarot card reader as an option for guests who didn't want to dance in the evening.Read more...

Everything else just fell into place after that.Read more...
