It’s no secret that we love an alternative wedding! Rose and Jason’s had it all - Star Wars cosplay, wands, elven circlets for the bridesmaids, a black wedding dress and veil. Set all of that on the backdrop of Pacific Grove in all its cloudy, moody beauty and you can see it was definitely a day to remember! Congratulations, you two, this was truly a joy and an honor to be a part of.

The two of us are hardcore nerds (we’re talking many years of D&D here), so when Hannah and Stephen started describing their geeky wedding plans in our first meeting, we knew we would get along famously. Their nerdtastic autumn River Mill wedding did NOT disappoint!
Read MoreGeneva + Nicholas' Geektastic Barn Wedding // Crawford's Barn // Sacramento, CA
As completely unabashed nerds ourselves (I mean, we named our children after characters from The Princess Bride and Doctor Who), I say this with all affection and authority: Geneva and Nicholas’ wedding was geek paradise. There were board games, word games, a Super Nintendo, a photobooth where guests could dress up like the Mario Brothers. We even spotted a photo of the bride and groom in Mario and Luigi cosplay! And through the whole wedding, Geneva, Nicholas and their guests exhibited this unabashed sense of play, which is really the hallmark of the true nerd. It also makes for a rockin’ party.

As Justin mentioned in our previous blog post, nerds are our people. And Ashley and Sean aren't just nerds - they're hardcore nerds. In notes they exchanged/read to each other before their ceremony, they talked about being in band class together. There were Star Wars references throughout the day, superhero nods (Batman socks for the groom and groomsmen, a Batman garter for the bride), more Disney allusions than I probably even realized (the big ones being the Minnie Mouse slippers Ashley wore while getting ready and the fact that she walked down the aisle to a song from Beauty and the Beast) and, of course, Harry Potter themed flannels for the bridesmaids that said "I Solemnly Swear I Am Up to No Good" on the back. They were even in the bridesmaids' Hogwarts House colors. All of this is just to say: Ashley and Sean take their geekdom seriously. And we seriously love them for it.
