A Vintage and Fun Masked Wedding – Cassidi & Rob

2013-05-28_0022Good morning! I hope we are all enjoying the lovely sunshine?

Today I get to introduce you to Cassidi who met Rob when she was working in a piercing studio. “I thought he was kind of a dork because he had a silly moustache. Soon he started to come around the (piercing) shop more and more… And finally his beard grew it and I fell in love.  Haha. We became good friends over the next few months. We would hang out all the time and have the best time together. Then one evening Rob kissed me in front of a juke box at this bar we would go to.  From that moment we were even more inseparable.

Our wedding day was insane! As we were all getting ready our newest adopted dog, Rue, ran away! So in the middle of me getting my hair done I had to leave and run around Philadelphia looking for her. Luckily with the help of all of our friends and strangers we found her and still had the wedding start on time!

“I would say that the highlight of our wedding was when we finally got to relax and have a great time on the dance floor.”

Rob and I had a lot of little details that really showed who we were as individuals and as a couple.  We really wanted to keep a vintage feel to the wedding but at a touch of rock n roll. All of the music we played during our ceremony was very non-traditional, I walked the isle to the Ramones “Baby, I love you” and we left the ceremony to Edward Sharp’s “Home”.  We also really wanted to have fun wedding pictures, since we are both really dorky in front of the camera, we got animal mask for us and the bridal party.  To add the animal theme, our cake topper was a bride and groom couple with goat heads.  Continue reading

Honouring The Fathers On Your Wedding Day

Simply Bridal are back with more infographics to help you plan your wedding day. Today’s is all about honouring the Dad in your family or world. They don’t necessarily have to be related to you or your biological father either. It can be someone who you grew up with as the father figure in your life.

Honoring your Father

I love the idea of a boogie! But like Simply Bridal have said, create your own tradition. Maybe you & your Dad have your own funny dance anyway that you could perform? My Dad is a fantastic chef and I would get him to cook something wonderful!

I hope you all spoiled your Dads yesterday? Or maybe you’re a Dad and got some great gifts? Either way, I hope you all had a lovely day spent with family.
