I didn't know it was still a thing on either side of the Atlantic.

I think the reason nerd weddings piss me off so much is because marriage is a coming-of-age ritual (one I’m becoming increasingly bitter about not having experienced at age 36) and if you’re going to use it as an opportunity to celebrate your childish pursuits (in exactly the same way as every other childish person) instead of being mature for one fuckin’ day of your life, you might as well just hold it in a fuckin’ playpen.

(Searches offbeatbride.com for “playpen.” Finds no results. Finds several results for “ball pit.” Shakes fist at heavens.)

Futurist is a job title that existed about 100 years ago, so I guess it fits with the rest of the anachronistic shit in those weddings

I've got nerdy friends. I was just at a wedding where the reception was Star Trek themed. It was a cute little thing with custom cocktails and a fun photobooth and shit like that. We had a nice time and everyone got 'oh, cute, they wanted to use their love of Star Trek to make this a more unique thing' nice and clear. They also had a normal ass wedding and didn't spend twenty minutes speaking in Klingon while 90% of the crowd just watched the clock. The balance does exist! You can like something without making it literally all you are as a person, nerds!

My friends had a mostly normal wedding, with the only nerd thing being a giant 20 sided die made of pvr foam. Instead of clinking glasses to get the couple to kiss, you had to roll. 20 the couple would kiss, critical fail you had to kiss someone.

My brother had a typical wedding. He and his wife are into pop culture nerdy stuff (Harry Potter, LotR, Buffy et al). The only "nerd cred" thing they did was play the celebration march from the end of Star Wars for their entrance into the reception.

An entire wedding based on pop culture would be like reading an Ernest Cline book. Awful and self serving.

I was thinking to myself that I kind of want to see an ultranerd wedding where it's not Firefly or Doctor Who but, like, "We made our entire wedding Gitaroo Man themed, and the reception was based off of Nights into Dreams."

Then the Star Wars EU wedding came up and ehhhhhhhh

That brings up the question of there was a Plutonic ideal of the most cringe inducing turbo nerd wedding, what would it be? If money, time, and dignity were no object.

A Steampunk wedding on an actual zepplin? A Final Fantasy VI wedding where the ceremony is the entire opera?

The opera and the gameplay sequence that takes place around it, reimagined as a comedic play-within-a-play. (Written by a couple that are both comedy writers!)
