A Graffiti, Rock and Roll Wedding in Pennsylvania – Meghann & Rick

20130601-M&R-57

Today’s wedding takes places in both a theatre and a lighthouse! It’s super awesome, also there’s a bespoke graffiti piece that was designed for Meghann & Rick. With photography from NikkiMayDay Photography, I’m excited to share with you Meghann & Rick’s story!

I met Rick on my first day when I started working at a local Juvenile Detention Facility. We worked with teenage boys and girls who had mental health and drug and alcohol issues. We stayed friends for a few years, and then when we were out with co-workers one night, we started hitting it off and realized that there was some attraction. We dated for about 3 years, and then he proposed on my birthday!

Frankenstein And His Bride – Andrew & Allie

2 (7)Today I get to introduce you to the gorgeous Allie & Andrew!

5 (9)I love a bride in boots! Allie looks awesome in her Dr Martens under her beautiful dress!

We were in high school, he was a junior and I was a senior. I would see him around school in cute band t-shirts with pink hair and he always carried a briefcase instead of a backpack. It was a little weird, but lucky for him I always had a thing for “a little weird”. I thought he was intriguing. He showed up to school one day with a guitar and a mini stack amp, that he rolled in on his skateboard. During lunch he plugged it in and started playing. I was further intrigued. I was into music (I played the bass) and he was clearly into music as well. As it turned out I wasn’t the only one doing the admiring. As Andrew tells me, “You were hot, but you weren’t like the other hot girls. You weren’t the “cheer leader” type. You wore Dickies, Chucks and a studded belt.” Andrew says he used his “band guy power” to get me to like him. The first time we hung out was when he invited me to his band practice.

“Andrew and I have always been fans of Frankenstein and his Bride, we even dressed as them for Halloween one year, so it only made sense that we had them as our cake topper.” Continue reading
