Top 10 Star Wars Wedding Ideas

Top 10 Ways to make your Star Wars Wedding truly epic!

Top 10 Star Wars Wedding Ideas  – These are the best ways to make your Star Wars Wedding truly epic

…Search your feelings.
You know it to be true.
Stay on target. It’s not a trap.

Let’s be honest: a Star Wars wedding can be tricky. You want it to be over-the-top fun, but you also run the risk of making it feel like a kids’ party. May the wedding-planning Force be with you.  Our fantastic couple chose the Cloak & Blaster Gaming Pub in Orlando Florida for their Star Wars inspired Wedding Celebration! We thought it would be fun to put together our very own Top 10 Star Wars Wedding Ideas list, including images from their celebration. There was so much to see and capture, that we really had to stay on our toes the entire day. From the Light Saber Bouquet to the matching Lea and Han Blasters, this wedding day celebration really encompassed the best parts of the theme. Especially without being too over the top. We were very impressed. Specifically with the way this couple incorporated their own personalities into this epic day! As Orlando Wedding Photographers, we really believe that.

1. Join me, and together we can rule the galaxy

It’s all about setting the mood, and there is no better place to start than with your engagement session. This is why this is number one n our list of Top 10 Star Wars Wedding Ideas. Finding a photographer that fully grasps the concept will be a challenge, and we loved capturing their engagement images at Bill Frederick Park in Orlando Florida.  See their Star Wars inspired Engagement Experience Here. We knew right away that this fun couple was going to really enjoy planning their wedding. The weather was perfect and the couple really brought their own brand of energy to the session. Photographing mini-figs as part of their experience sealed the deal for us. At this point we really didn,t know what we were getting into with their actual wedding, but we knew we really wanted to be a part of it.

3. I am A Jedi, like my father ( or mother ) before me… 

Often a brides bouquet can carry a meaningful family symbol or heirloom for a cherished loved one. There is nothing wrong with incorporating your theme in to the traditional details added by the bride. A Lightsaber Bouquet with heartfelt tributes attached is the perfect blend of the family traditions and themed elements.

We are half way through our Top 10 Star Wars Wedding Ideas, and we agree that a cake topper is a perfect place to add a little of your own personality, without being too gimmicky. Just like our couple, who chose mini Porgs for their cake, you can create your very own Star Wars statement from the top of your cake. Get creative and look to sites like Etsy and Pinterest for inspiration on themed options that your guests will still get a kick out of.

7. Center Force

We had no idea a helmet as a centrepiece could look so cool, but this couple pulled it off. From BB-8 to a Stormtrooper, each table had its own charm and personality. Overall they really just wanted the entire wedding party to enjoy their time together.

8. The force is strong with these two

The bride and groom really  went with “full force” designing their “Star Wars” themed day — Even to have the father of the bride get in the act in full costume! The vows included references to many of the movies, with comical and romantic qoutes throughout.

9. You Cannot bring those droids in here….

Without a doubt – having R2D2 as your ringbearer is over the top, and contacting a droid owner is not difficult in most areas of the country. We recommend starting here  https://www.droidbuilders.info/ for a starting point to locate a club near you to explore the possibilities!

Finally on our Top 10 Star Wars Wedding Ideas, is the subject of  usable props- a matching set of Han and Lea Blasters are at the top of our list for super cool finishing touches. Our Groom 3d printed his, but you can easily find a large community of propbuilders to source your own versions. For the Han Blaster, we recommend starting here BASIC BLASTER for a basic blaster. They also offer the Lea Blaster too.
