How to have an awesome Roller Derby wedding

 For a wedding where the bride is wearing roller skates under her dress I would not expect traditional fare to be served at the reception. At Katie and Dimitri's reception they had cotton candy, a staple at any fair and a dentist's dream. Dimitri is even double-fisting it, a true pro. After pulling your dress on and lacing up your roller skates a bride needs her close friends to be there for her when she takes her vows. These very cool bridesmaids are wearing black dresses to accentuate the bride's white gown. Notice the bride has her roller skates on, a roller girl is always prepared. Quad roller skates are the cornerstone of the sports, without roller skates it is running around the track and knocking your opponent over. Katie slips on her Antik skates, which went under her wedding dress. A stylish move to say the least, and one very cool way to have your roller derby wedding.View the list »

Everyone bride and groom wants their wedding to be memorable, and feature the parts of their personalities that make them who they are, not only as individuals, but as a couple. From the music chosen to the color palate, and even what flowers the bride carries down to her soon-to-be husband. All of these decisions go into making the perfect day, all yours.

For Katie and Dimitry who met in Las Vegas, and are both fans of vintage cars, rockabilly music, and roller derby they melded their favorite hobbies and interests together to execute one very cool wedding.

The wedding colors were black and white with hot pink and gold accents, Katie's bouquet was made up of black and white anemones and garden roses. The bride wore roller skates under her wedding dress, but left the pads in her skate bag.

Katie came down the isle to Pachelbel, Cannon D, and the couple's exit song was Ring of Fire by the one and only Johnny Cash.
