Cemetery Wedding

Cemetery Wedding Roberta and Cu held their cemetery wedding at the Sacramento Historic City Cemetery on Halloween, putting together the most unique wedding idea I have ever experienced! In their planning of their wedding day, they sought out vendors and venues to carry out their ideas, but came across a little trouble finding people who could accommodate their unique sense of style. Fortunately, they found me on Offbeat Bride, which is a website dedicated to nontraditional Couples and ideas such as hosting your very own cemetery wedding! Together with 30 of their family and closest friends on Halloween day, they held their cemetery wedding inside a mortuary chapel where they brought liveliness to an other-wise gloomy setting. With a majority of guests dressed in all black, and some in actual costumes, at first glance you would imagine this union was for a funeral. Judging from the big smiles and laughter heard throughout the day, one would soon realize it was an occasion to celebrate the most joyous of days!Wanting to personalize most aspects of the day to themselves, Cu made all the cemetery wedding related decorations, including a coffin shaped ring box to match their coffin shaped rings. Equally as impressive and unique as the rings themselves, Roberta stunned as she walked down the aisle wearing a custom Videnoir Couture vampire shawl as her own take on the traditional wedding dress. It was easily the most unique wedding I have ever photographed and I hope to encounter more Offbeat Brides because I love the uniqueness of the Couples and their ideas.

Karis and Will’s Faery Wedding at an Animal Sanctuary Karis and Will held their wedding at Isis Oasis Sanctuary, a part retreat center part animal sanctuary, that they had visited plenty of times as a couple. In addition to their pet ferrets acting as ring bearers, Karis and her offbeat brides maids wore faery wings to represent each season of the year. Marsha and Michal’s SF City Hall Elopement When I first met Marsha she was wearing a pink robe, and I just assumed that was what she was going to wear during the ceremony, which I thought was pretty neat! She then revealed she was covering her dress that she would reveal right before their San Francisco City Hall ceremony. Umm…it was freaking awesome!!! Interested In More Information?
