As we enter peak wedding season (which usually runs between June and September), love is in the air—even for the most unexpected brands. Here’s a look at some recent pop-ups, activations, and events that celebrated the idea of happily ever after.

The nuptials came on the 10th anniversary of the Marriage Equality Act—on June 26, 2015, a landmark ruling made it legal for same-sex couples to marry in all 50 states. The event included traditional wedding celebrations with cake, flowers, a Champagne tower, and more. The event also featured remarks from Them’s editor-in-chief Fran Tirado and a performance from Colby.
