An
Orange County couple hosted a unique wedding event and show at DiPiazzas this
Saturday in Long Beach.
Michelle
Scott and Ryan Donahue’s “July and Ditch’s Wedding Extravaganza” featured a
wedding ceremony and a punk show. The event included performances by Orange
County’s Media Blitz and The Detours.
“Punk
rock is such a big part of our lives, it was the only natural way to celebrate
our love for each other,” Ryan Donahue said.
Punk
rock wasn’t the only element that removed tradition. The couple’s groomsmen
dressed as bananas, the bridesmaids dressed as lobsters, and the marriage
officiant dressed in safari attire.
“It
was the best party I have ever been to in my life,” Ryan Donahue said.
The
newlyweds shared advice for couples inspired by the event.
“Show
the world who you are and don't include anything that is not a sincere
expression of love,” Ryan Donahue said.
The
bride also suggested personal touch.
“Make
sure to create an event that is very personal,” she said, “pay attention to
what makes you who you are, individually, and as a couple, and blow it up.
Nothing is too crazy when you are willing to be wacky.”
