Freak Show Nuptials

Dina and Gary's Wedding Brought the Circus to Their Vows

Dina and Gary's New Jersey will be one that all attending won't soon forget. Holding the ceremony and reception in a vintage bowling alley only helped the freak show wedding theme that they had intended.

Indeed, the couple did have a real freak show at their wedding complete with contortionists and fire breathers. They also had candy bouquets, an awesome red wedding dress and carnival-themed food to perfectly suit their freak show wedding day.
