ALL | ALT REPORT | CLASSIC
My meaningful, conceptual alternative wedding.


As yall know, I haven't been posting as much lately. I have some great news to relay to yall. I finally got married. It was a beautiful ceremony, and we even had one of my art school bros create a video for us that is really in line with our alternative brand. So many tacky ass people get standard wedding photographers to document their weddings. I think the goal of those photographers is to 'make the bride look skinny', and justify the groom's role in the wedding by taking a few meaningful 'bro pix' that really make it clear that the groomsmen are an 'authentic can of bros.'

N e ways, our conceptual video turned out pretty amazingly. We used the hit song "Sleepyhead" by the Passion Pits as 'our song' since it really represented our 'new lease on life.'

Just wanted every1 at the wedding to 'know who we are'
'what we're all about'
Understand that we are more than just 'any other lame couple'
who is uniting together for tax benefits

Beautiful ceremony
Beautiful bros
Beautiful bitches
Walking around conceptually
moving arms, facing zany angles
metaphor 4 how we are 'obtuse as shit' in a right angled society

Eff dress shoes
Wearing some Converse
[via Best Coast / Vampy Weekend collab]

Feel like everything was perfect
for 1 night
we were all sleepie heads
A feast
a carnival
a partie
an electro rave without any deaths
Feel like my immediate family
and my extended family
finally realized 'who I am' as an alternative person
and how I 'see the world' in a different/abstract way

Just want to drive away with my lover
Riding the minivan wave
2 our honeymoon on the concrete beaches of Brooklyn

Are yall gonna have an alt wedding?
What indie song is going to be 'yalls song'?
Did this video 'kill it'?
Is this couple 'the most authentic couple in the world'?
Do u think they will be happy forever, or will they get divorced when 1 of them decides that Passion Pit is 'too entry level' 4 them, then the other 1 gets defensive because the song 'means a lot' 2 them?
What are u gonna do at ur wedding to make sure u don't have a mainstream, middle class wedding?
Do u feel sad when u see high school/college acquaintances 'getting married', 'looking happy', and ultimately having an upper-middle class tacky-wave wedding?
If ur not going to be rich, is the only thing left to do with ur life 'get married and pop/poop out a few kids'?

Passion Pit

Passion Pit is a bleepy bloop indie pop band that tons of entry-level alts <3.

those bitches are phat as fuck

brobabe's picture

@mel gibson,

phat is the new alt

bro house (via beach)'s picture

@brobabe, I really think that when fat ppl try to make a conceptually heavy vid, it always fucks up. Maybe cuz they just dont fit in, or maybe cuz they are to busy eating to worry about how the concept is being portrayed. Kinda h8 fat ppl. Might even B greater than my h8 for 2k10 (via not many buzz-worthy releases/death of chillwave). My 2 cents yall.

rojobro's picture

@bro house (via beach), agreed. these ppl don't even look alt in any way... just mainstrmrs who happen to like sunglasses, converse, and fat chicks. Ttly losers like many fatties. Hope I never get fat.

@brobabe, via best coast's drummer

rojobro's picture

@brobabe, Dude, way off. US is sooo fat via stupid ppl not giving a shit if they are eating fat-filled chemical concoctions instead of real food.

@rojobro, u can be fat and still eat all organic and nutritionz. jus sayin.

@bitch house, being phat on purpose is ironic
irony is alt

@Vastro the Chilean Bro, You've got it bro!

Robert E. Bro's picture

marrying a girl that fat is never a good look. I don't care if Neon Injuns+ Feiry Arcades form some wierd chill-indie-wave-core supergroup and play a 'that song from titanic' 4 u. gross, bro.

chillamanjaro's picture

@Robert E. Bro, "How can you stay with a fat girl who'll say 'oh, would you like to marry me, and if you like you can buy the ring', she doesn't care about anything." (via brorissey)

feel like these arent alts // maybe more like former ska fatties that mebbe check p4k bimonthly

altgrange georgia is the alt-est. So happy you choose to get married there CRLS. feel like that is 'totes' close to ernest greene's lake house. maybe he rode the chill-lake-waves over to the wedding, and just effing alted it up. vibing hard to this song!!! what's it called again? Who is this band??????

Damn, she's super fat already, imagine once she starts popping out kids? How is going to be able to find where to put his penis?

&#039;Alther Payton's picture

@'Alther Payton, Also, did you notice all her friends are fat? Do we make friends with people who look like us? Would a skinny broad risk her social status (via Panda Bear) on hangign with fat girls?

generk witty cmmnt's picture

@'Alther Payton,
u bring up interesting questions, alter

1. skinny broads & fat friends
feel like the uglier a girls friends, the lower her self-esteem
2. once she is poppin out kidz
gonna b HUGE

appreciate the honest q's,

@sloth bear, So true, where else are there people that fat/ugly/stuck in 4 years ago?

LoBro's picture

@Dick, Don't h8 on land of the chillwaves. Ernest Greene and Chaz will beat your ass so bad you so bad you'll 'feel it all around'.

luvucrls's picture

@LoBro, not sure if you ever really understood the "chillwave" movement. think you might be confusing it w/ 'jugallocore'. feel pretty confident that ernest greene and chaz are too busy 'trying to become librarians' / 'have too few muscles' / 'not enough aggression' to actually beat someone. Also feel like 'regional pride' is so 2k4 'rappercore'.

getting married is NOT alt in the first place, you little piece of !#$#^**(#!!@_)&*!, Carles! <3 u

HAlt's picture

1. Passion SHIT was maybe a decent band 4 years ago. Definitely, mainstream now.. 'Alt' huh?
2. It was a nice video besides all those fat women lurking, also mainstream as hell.
3. You're not alt just because you put some cheap paper cranes on top of your wedding cake and do a couple jumping shots and make "your song" one of the most played out "indie songs" probably ever.
Thumbs down amigo.
Also, why don't you make your family even less proud of you by revealing you're alternative. Because they weren't already dissapointed that you were to be procreating with a whale, thus tarnishing the family's geneology.

THIS WEDDING:

SHITTY WEDDING

It was beautifully done. Though in the mean time you just did some heavy advertising for that photographer, Carles.

rich fat americans... fucking hate this shit. Instead of spending so much on putting together this irritating video and wedding, they should've hired personal trainers and called it a day.

Wanted to throw up a little bit after watching that...

Anyways, I think it would be more "alt" to get married at a courthouse and not telling anyone.

feel like they 'don't give a fuck what you think' because you probably won't ever get married anyway

disillusionbro's picture

When I decide to marry, I will definitely shoot a conceptual video of myself feeding wedding cake to my overweight spouse. To the sound of The Decemberists. I like the editing here, and the 'grown up clothing' + Converse combo, that's a new one, and the jumping. I might borrow these narrative elements when my time comes.

freebird1201's picture

Ok, kind of confused with this....didn't we read about carles getting married like 2 months ago and walking down the aisle to amco "my girls" totes diff bride....just throwing it out there. if i really cared more i would attempt to find that video, but i dont.
on another note: big weddings = 'a show' = lack of any real connection = divorced within a year.

freebird1201's picture

@freebird1201, alright i actually just watched this video and have concluded due to the serious lack of any blog worthy music/news carles has sunk to searching for 'alt' weddings and then relating it to himself...this video sucked btw.

@freebird1201,
big wedding = lack of connection??

This video lowered my liking for this blog. Passion Pit was not a good choice; I now question your values and opinions that you hold in such high regard. There were some good parts, but overall it turned my stomach upside down.. and not in the good way.

Carles are you becoming a sap? Nut up bitch

Brope benedict's picture

I bless your wedding, Carles and wife no. 2. I hope this makes up for me sleeping through my cousin's wedding three weeks ago. I'm too chill, I guess, to get out of bed. Maybe I would have woken up in time for an alt wedding.

why do fat ppl always ruin everything? throughout the video all I noticed were her chbby cheeks and wide arms. she should try an alt jenny craig workout tape instead, amirite??
