I've never been to a Jewish wedding, but celebrations like Shira and Irzik's make me hope I can one day. Look at all that joy! The couple were married in November (on the bride's birthday!) in Old Jaffa, Israel. Their wedding theme was mostly influenced by the bride's dress, made by Israeli brand Shimka. The vintage inspired cut and fabrics sent their wedding in a rustic yet elegant direction.

Rustic, Beer Themed Wedding with a Temperley Wedding Dress

Charlie and Duncan were lucky enough to score a gem of a venue for their wedding - Outfields Farm in Bedfordshire. Usually used for holiday accommodation, they had their reception in the barn usually used as a bunk room, and the whole bridal party were able to take over the holiday cottages adjacent for the whole weekend. Many of their other guests camped on site too. As it wasn’t an advertised wedding venue, happening to belong to Charlie’s bridesman’s parents, they’re convinced they managed to achieve what they wanted from their big day for a third of the price of hosting it in a manor house or country club!

Isabelle and Olivier were married in Québec, Canada. Although barn weddings are now seen as pretty mainstream, and this couple are anything but, the bride had dreamt of being married in a big beautiful barn ever since she was a child... so that's exactly what they did! They still wanted to put their own spin on the day though (of course!) so they went down the hyper colourful, Mexican vibe for their theme.

Diana and Vlad's wedding was an actual dreamland, and I don't think you're prepared for what your eyes are about to feast upon. They had three parts to their wedding and each was as incredible as the last: first, their gothic Romanian city hall wedding; a week later, their "Harry Potter in the mountains" themed reception; and finally an after-wedding photo session in Ireland, where they now live. It is just delicious from start to finish.

Movie Themed London Wedding Kicking Cancer’s Ass

Through The Woods We Ran

Sarah and Shaun's boho movie-inspired wedding is incredible, for many reasons. Their venue, Rich Mix Cinema, looked like SO MUCH FUN,  and their styling was sensational (any couple who gets married in front of Leonardo DiCaprio's face on a screen is a winner in my eyes). But above the awesome alternative styling and the delicious photos from faves Through The Woods We Ran, Sarah and Shaun's wedding is amazing because of their story and their planning approach in the face of major adversity

Araba and Jon's warming winter wedding is guaranteed to make you smile, and that's not something I say lightly. With a theme of 'love and family (but also Harry Potter)', if the photos don't make you beam, the words from the lovely Jon will! When asked what makes their wedding particularly alternative, he answered "I married the greatest woman alive... also, Kate Nash played our reception and it was awesome!" And that is just the start, my friends.

Winter Wedding with Copper Accents and Star Wars

Kerry and Dan didn't have a pre-determined theme, they just wanted to include little bits of everything they love. Little nods to lots of different elements came together to produce a wedding that felt totally 'them'. From the Star Wars posters as table markers, to the homemade cake, DIY flowers and all the decor that they did entirely themselves. They were massively inspired by the weddings featured on Rock n Roll Bride and of course, good old Pinterest.

Strawberry Cheesecake Forever: A Beatlemania Themed Wedding

Mary and Benton chose a Beatles themed wedding because, well, who doesn’t love the Beatles?! They are both graphic designers by trade, so details are super important to them. They went to town with thinking of all the little touches they could make for their Beatlemania themed wedding; they designed all their own stationery - from their concert style invites to their Yellow Submarine themed orders of service, record style save the dates (complete with personalised album covers!) and ticket stump style RSVPs.
