What's Geekier Than a Ferengi Bridesmaid?

gbulmash asks: "The newly updated "Star Trek: The Experience" at the Las Vegas Hilton not only offers thrills, chills, and a Borg invasion... It's offering Trek-themed Wedding Packages. You can be married on a replica of the Enterprise bridge by a costumed starfleet officer and have additional Trek characters as guests. I thought "how geeky", but then remembered the guy who paid $22,550 for Joaquin Phoenix's white armor from Gladiator , claiming he was going to wear it at his wedding. All this has inspired me to ask what's the geekiest or nerdiest thing you've ever encountered at a wedding? There was a thread on geeky party favors for a wedding last year, but this question goes beyond that... getting married by a Gandalf impersonator, a cake shaped like Cthulu, groom dressed as Darth Vader and his best man is a stormtrooper. I know tales like these are out there, so please share them."

Not geeky, but kinda silly

My dad married his second wife in Vegas, by an Elvis impersonator, on April 1st.

It's brilliant: if he ever forgets his anniversary, he can just say: "you thought I forgot? April fools!" ;)

And if he ever wants a divorce...

Asking your girlfriend to marry you in front of millions of geeks around the world...

Geekier than that?

Not having a bride?

Yep, I'm a man and married my boyfriend. I'm a systems admin; he is a programmer. We both love watching football, and we both weigh over 225 pounds. We are both major comptuer geeks. Life is great. We just go to show that stereotypes are often very, very wrong.

You may now assimilate the bride. Or would the bride assimilate the groom?

Just be careful...

...she may demand a Betazoid wedding instead, where no one wears clothing.

I "married" my sister in a wizard costume

You gotta be careful with that wording, my first though was, damn I didn't know Rednecks read slashdot and why would they wear a wizard costume??. ;)

I picked up a toy Han Solo blaster from Toys 'R Us.

Can we presume on the honeymoon Han fired first? =)

(I think star trek weddings are geeky in a very scary way, but that's a great wedding story that's geeky in a cute way.)
