Ashley and Geoff warned their photographers that, “This will be a nerd wedding!” As if that needed to be a warning — it's a huge bonus!

For two awesome humans who met at a zombie larp(!), they had the amazingly nerdy wedding you would expect and it was glorious.

  1. Everything about this is awesome, but I especially love her boots. Droolworthy.

  2. Hi,

    It is a stylish and original wedding, I loved the images and also the clothes of the bride and groom. I believe that this style of wedding will be a trend for the world, suppliers must prepare for this new style, every day there are more adherents from the Nerd world.

    I loved your blog.
