Wedding Ideas - Geeky

I hate (like reeeeeeaaaaally don't like) being on the outside of an inside joke. Don't get me wrong, I love my inside jokes with my friends - but I am way quick to clue new friends in because, ugh, who likes being the person who just doesn't know what's going on?

I was so excited to get Eileen's email about her wedding because she wore the Gala bow from my collection with Crown and Glory at their reception! Doesn't she rock it so well?! She and James were married at Brighton College and their wedding had a retro theme with geeky touches.

Sam and Stu met at college and bonded over a mutual love of video games, "primarily how to get the knights of the round summon in Final Fantasy 7!" Sam laughed. So needless to say, when it came to tying the knot, the very thing that brought them together was to be the theme of the wedding.

We teased this couple's epic fantasy cake, and you guys made it clear that the rest of the wedding must be seen. And seen it shall be!

One of the wedding themes that doesn't get nearly enough attention is an offbeat wedding.

Kev and Rachel's February wedding in New Brunswick was a little bit nerdy and a lot of sexy. I love me a low-key wedding, and this is like a fancy cocktail hour with friends where, oh by the way, they get married too.

Sarah and Tony ROCKED their movie-themed wedding with a Princess Bride meets Harry Potter cake, movie-theme tables including Finding Nemo, Spider-Man, and Casablanca, and of course, loads of Harry Potter.

Kat and Halo both have pretty unconventional looks, so their wedding was going to be anything but boring! They brought lots of geeky elements into their May wedding.
