Hipster wedding<br />

BiNGO<br />

We all love a wedding – especially hipsters. Take our game to<br />

the next one you go to and tick all the boxes that apply<br />

THE BRIDAL<br />

PARTY ARE ALL<br />

WEARING<br />

FLOWER<br />

CROWNS.<br />

There’s wooden<br />

signage directing<br />

you to “booze” and<br />

“booty-shaking”,<br />

among other things.<br />

The cocktails<br />

are served<br />

in mason jars.<br />

Or mismatched<br />

teacups.<br />

Everyone gets<br />

to take home<br />

a jar of<br />

homemade<br />

lemon curd or<br />

raspberry jam.<br />

THE INVITATION<br />

WAS HANDWRITTEN<br />

ON A TINY<br />

CHALKBOARD<br />

AND DELIVERED<br />

TO YOUR HOUSE BY<br />

AN ADORABLE CHILD.<br />

One word:<br />

bunting.<br />

The bride<br />

walked<br />

down to that<br />

Lumineers<br />

song.<br />

THE GUY<br />

WHO SANG<br />

THAT LUMINEERS<br />

SONG MIGHT<br />

ACTUALLY BE<br />

A LUMINEER.<br />

He’s<br />

also the<br />

best man.<br />

Somewhere,<br />

someone<br />

is serving<br />

pickles. From<br />

a jar, obvs.<br />

There’s a<br />

hashtag.<br />

THE<br />

GROOMSMEN<br />

ARE ALL<br />

WEARING<br />

BOW TIES.<br />

OR VESTS.<br />

YOU’RE<br />

CURRENTLY<br />

SITTING ON<br />

A HAYSTACK<br />

IN A BARN.<br />

The barn is<br />

on the bride<br />

or groom’s<br />

family<br />

property.<br />

THERE<br />

ARE FAIRY<br />

LIGHTS.<br />

The seating<br />

chart is sitting<br />

in a giant wooden<br />

photo frame<br />

and features<br />

a photo of each<br />

guest as a baby.<br />

There’s no<br />

cake: just<br />

a stack of<br />

artisanal<br />

doughnuts.<br />

The table<br />

numbers are<br />

drawn on cute<br />

chalkboards<br />

and surrounded<br />

by native<br />

wildflowers.<br />

The bluegrass<br />

band plays<br />

a song for the<br />

first dance that<br />

you’ve never<br />

heard of.<br />

LATE-NIGHT<br />

SNACKS INCLUDE<br />

MINI HOT DOGS<br />

AND SLIDERS.<br />

The bride<br />

and groom<br />

got married<br />

under an<br />

arch…<br />

The bride and<br />

groom both<br />

mention to you<br />

that they<br />

“never wanted<br />

a traditional<br />

wedding”.<br />

…THAT HER<br />

FATHER MADE<br />

FOR THEM AS<br />

A WEDDING GIFT.<br />

You’re sure<br />

everyone will<br />

live happily,<br />

hipster-ly ever<br />

after. #<br />
