This Beetlejuice wedding decor is shrinking my head in amazement

We shared Sarah and Troy’s wedding, but I need to share their Beetlejuice wedding decor as a stand alone post! That amazing groom gear, and her kick-ass wedding dress alone made me squee. But there are sand worms, shrimp hands, stripes, and Tim Burton-y wedding inspiration everywhere you look once you get to their reception.

When Comic-Con speed dating leads to wedded bliss: a nerdy theater celebration

Sarah and Shane first met at a Comic-Con Speed Dating event, and their love for movies, Doctor Who, and puppets brought them together.

A Game of Thrones-inspired wedding with a dash of Star Wars, unicorns, and a pet guinea pig

Elise and Dick are big fans of Game of Thrones, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and Battlestar Galactica. They wove their fandoms into a delightfully geeky tapestry, including decorating in Lannister red and yellow, hanging banners with iconography from the films and TV shows, and using blue and purple dragons as tabletop decor. Elise even donned a knee-length Lannister red wedding gown!

A Wes Anderson-themed Thanksgiving wedding

These two pulled in their family and friends to help out: it turns out they’re related to a minister, a florist, and the pair of photographer-videographer-DJs that make up Post & Beam Co. The love these guys have for nature is clear — there are so many animal and plant touches. These guys are also big-time Wes Anderson fans, and used a bit of the filmmaker’s style — especially with references to Fantastic Mr. Fox.
