That would be so awesome!

It's the second marriage for both of us, so we're sticking with simple. We met with the minister today and he asked to be paid in stimpacks. I think everything is going to be ok. He showed us a contemporary ceremony we really like.

This sounds really cool. We're getting married this summer and theming around gaming in general. I bought RPG dice for table decorations, and we're naming tables after places in games (Azeroth, Rokugan, etc). I like the idea of including geeky in the normal. So much fun.

I hope you'll post pics of your wedding afterwards. I bet it's going to be amazing. =)

Figured I'd post some pictures of what we have so far. Sorry my pictures are so big, even when I edit them to be smaller on Photobucket they still show up huge on the forum.

My bouquet. Looks pretty wasteland-esque, I think.

Favor boxes and bottle caps

Decorations for the buffet table. It's kind of a 50's/Fallout theme as we're telling our non-gaming guests that it's 50's themed because they won't get the Fallout reference. We're going to have 50's style food like pinwheel sandwiches, deviled eggs, and ambrosia salad.

And this isn't video game themed, but this is my version of a guest book. We're going to Disneyland for our honeymoon. The guests sign the balloons. I thought this would be better than an actual book because we can hang it on the wall instead of just throwing a guest book in the closet. I still need to add the balloon strings and our names/date.

Our centerpieces will be mason jars filled about a quarter of the way with bullet casings, then some kind of flowers. I'm trying to get some used casing from my friends who hunt, but I might have to buy new ones from the local sporting goods store.

Wow, these all look great! I especially love the bouquet, and the alternative guest book is a brilliant idea.

Thanks, everyone! The local shooting range gave me some shells, so we did a test for our centerpieces. I really like how they came out.
