I just couldn't think clearly when it came to what I wanted to do. Alas the show has come to an end and the new book has yet to be released so I thought this was the perfect time to post some GOT/ASOIAF Wedding Inspiration while there was little to distract my vision. And a vision it is. I wanted to give just enough old world fantasy and a modern edge twist.

Would you go full overt GOT/ASOIAF or s...
