Nice! As a serial-startup-dev and someone with experience in the industry (wife and I run a successful wedding biz) I'm always stoked to see people do compelling things in the space. I think there are TONS of awesome things to do with for-wedding sites that no one's really getting right, and you guys look well poised to set a good example.

FWIW, I'd test a landing page that makes the theme preview a bit more forward.

Interesting - I can't tell by looking at it whether or not it supports same-sex weddings. It'd also be cool to be able to tour the site without signing in through Facebook, especially if your SO is unaware that you're thinking of proposing :)

It does. You can be groom and groom as far as I can see.

As a groom myself, I'll echo the problem statement. Definitely a space that needs some innovation, but other than pretty designs, not sure this really rethinks a wedding website much. Still seeing a lot of links, for example. I applaud the effort and hope to see more on this in the future, though once I'm married, I'll never have the need to build one again. Maybe as a guest, though...

Remember this is the same person that created a video explaining how to cut two $60 Apple power cables to make an extremely dangerous, electrically unsafe $120 jump rope. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_w9e1uWg8fM

That is hilarious. Seriously this is the kind of thing I would have tried when I was 8 before my dad caught me and and asked "What are you, fucking stupid or something?"
