10 Geek-Themed Weddings

The nerds are taking over. From comic book heroes consistently conquering the box office to masses of people proclaiming themselves as "adorkable," "geek chic," and other nerd-hybrid adjectives, it is officially hip to be a square. You might not know exactly what a TARDIS is or all the cheat codes for classic NES games, but references to those and other nerdy items are penetrating pop culture. But for those who are truly into the nerdy culture, the ones that can quote Star Wars verbatim and can tell you the lineage of each Pokemon, being a nerd isn't a fad. It is a way of life. And if those folks are lucky to have met a like-minded individual, it's natural to debunk the typical wedding and bring their geeky side into their big day.
