It's that time again: Altarcations, one of our favorite wedding blogs. The gist is, Altarcations is feature at Gawker in which Phyllis Nefler reviews The New York Times' wedding section. It's lots of fun.
This week's Altarcations involves horseradish as a wedding trend, doing shots at the altar, cubs marrying cougars, dissections of "power couples" and a lot more!
Oh boy, it's time for one of our favorite blog series: Altarcations.
It's a weekly feature over at Gawker, in which Phyllis Nefler reviews The New York Times' "Weddings" section. And we love it.
This week Halloween weddings make an expected appearance, as does a wedding which was fully described before it took place (spoooooky!), the introduction of the acronym "LOB" into the lexicon (it stands for "Level of Brutality"), and a whole lot more.
Last week we told you about Phyllis Nefler's wonderful "Altarcations" feature at Gawker, in which she rates couples in The New York Times Weddings & Celebrations section. Let's check out this weeks installment!
This week we have politics a-plenty, with the Kerry and Bush families making surprise appearances, as well as The Times' "bitchy" layout decisions and so much more! Fun!
Gossip site Gawker has a Sunday feature Altarcations, in which couples featured in The New York Times' Weddings & Celebrations are scored and rated by Gawker writer Phyllis Nefler. It's usually pretty funny, and not at all as mean-spirited as our little description might unintentionally imply.
This week's installment of Altarcatiosn (we love that title!) featured that fabulous photo you see above, and included this letter to Phyllis:
"Dear Gawker,
On August 16, we were subjects of Phyllis Nefler's Altarcations nuptial scoring.
Having not met the other couple, but realizing we were in the same neighborhood, we arranged to meet for beers and bratwurst. It was quite an enjoyable time – visual evidence is attached. Many thanks for making the introduction."
We love it! This weeks installment also features other couples, fun photos and links to videos. Check out the entire Altarcations post here.
Wedding bells rang for one of our favorite bloggers, Joanna Goddard, a couple of weeks ago as she married her now-husband, and The New York Times writer, Alex.
Joanna is behind two of our favorite blogs, which include her own personal blog A Cup of Jo and her work for Glamour's Smitten blog.
Both blogs host some posts we've shared with you here on the OurWeddingDay.com blog... including great wedding inspiration, adorable photos, and engagement stories.
Congrats Joanna and Alex!
