Our jaws dropped when we saw this geek adventure wedding

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). We encouraged everyone to come in costume (and most did! With props!), and we made wands as favors, as well as rheoscopic fluid potion bottles, dragon eggs, and all of the food (from our fandoms).

This wedding was a union of Egyptian Gods and an invocation of Earth’s elements

The theme of this wedding was Egyptian Gothic & Frog and Toad are Friends. The grooms described it as “a union of Egyptian Gods and an invocation of Earth’s elements,” so you’re in for some meaningful and amazing ceremony rituals. Plus, you’ll love the reception details like the marble cake with lemon lavender frosting that looked like a birch tree!
