Star Wars! May the forth be with you. That'd be fitting

Ours wasn't particularly geeky, but we had a few touches. Table names were superheroes, and our ring box was covered in superhero pictures from comic books (from etsy, I'll find the link if you're interested - they use whatever superheroes /characters you like). Plus our band was called The Deloreans!

There will be Harry Potter influences in there. At the moment we have a theme for each table, Top table is Dr Who. Rest include Mario, LoTR, Harry Potter, Tim Burton, superheroes and Star Wars of course plus many others.

We're getting married next July but we're having a gaming theme. One of our ideas was to give wedding favours in bottles with either red (health), blue (mana), or green (stamina) jelly beans and a geeky label with a character on. We're also labeling tables by video game character.

I'd also love to hear other people's ideas!

I am getting married May 4th 2019! We chose it because it suited us as we are both star wars fans! (So my husband to be has no excuse to forget our anniversary either!!!) Thinking about having some kind of star wars themed save the dates but normal weddingy invites and maybe a geeky cake topper but that's it really :)

My fiancé is a huge comic book geek and collects comics, so we're having small touches here and there. Our save the dates are comic book covers, our invitations have small nods to superheroes on them, and our flower centrepieces are having just a couple of comic book roses scattered through them. My garter will also be Marvel, and we're hoping we can come up with a list of cocktails named after superheroes which our bar can serve on the day. We've also hunted down the woman who made this infamous cake - going for a tasting soon and hopefully booking her to make our cake!

I had a Shaun of the dead zombie theme wedding cake. My husband and I are big horror movie fans so it was perfect for us and it was done amazingly well. The bottom tier was a movie reel made up of photos of us and the bridal party were the zombies, we even added our cat as a cake topper lol :)

We had star wars theme to our wedding (5th aug) was subtle theme really but still enough for people to know. I made light sabre tie clips and cuff links, oh designed star wars invites, i did the rsvp cards, tables were planets and seating plan was star wars. Cake was amazing too as it was elegantly subtle. I did table scatter from a star wars book and tried to get words like vader, han, leia etc in the cut outs! Lol

We're having a subtle star wars theme wedding in 8 weeks time (eeek!!) so I got my invites on Vistaprint in the star wars font. Think they were birthday party ones but if u email them they can change it for you and get u match stationary so I got place cards with just a starry background and going to write in silver pen. The table name are going to be characters names. Cake had star wars touches on a traditional cake and the boys cufflinks and socks are going to be star wars. Also I bought myself irregular choice shoes with r2d2 on them.
My thoughts are if it's what you two want then do it! It's your day xx
