9 Ideas for a Wes Anderson-Inspired Wedding

Wes Anderson’s films are the stuff wedding dreams are made of: meticulous attention to detail, perfectly tailored clothing, and stunning scenery. If you’re planning (or pretend planning) your wedding, and just happen to be an Anderson devotee, then this is your year.

Which, if you think about it, is just like planning a wedding. Here’s a handful of tips for infusing your ceremonious event with some of that Anderson magic—without the Hollywood budget!
