Sometimes on wedding blogs, you only get to see the sunny side of weddings, especially in real wedding features. This time we’ve got a seriously lovely and intimate elopement that had more than its share of bumps in the road.

Our jaws dropped when we saw this geek adventure wedding (on a budget!)

We had a geek adventure wedding theme, incorporating a few of our favorite things in every way we could (Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who, The Elder Scrolls, Dungeons & Dragons, The Princess Bride, Game of Thrones, Firefly, New World Magischola, and more).
