We were wedding weirdos...

See what I did there?  With my alliteration?  Pretty good right?


Nevermind, I'm just a writing dork and things like this amuse me.


Anyway, it was Valentine's Day this week and so I've been staring at a Facebook newsfeed of flowers, chocolates and love messages so cliche they make me want to barf. Seriously, stop telling your bf how much you "forever love him and will be his boo forever" on Facebook.

Can you tell I'm not much into Valentine's Day?

But in keeping with the love theme of the week, I've decided to show one of the awesome details from our wedding last May.

So I think I've mentioned how dorky we are as a couple.  If I haven't, consider this your warning and leave now if you wish to avoid further nerdiness.










Still here?  Good.

When we were planning our wedding, I was appalled by how much flowers cost.  It's ridiculous!  Then my Mother-in-law had a wonderful idea.  Why not do something different for the boutonnieres? So, she searched the web for some cool ideas and found the idea of using Lego figurines for the guys.  Which we thought was great!

So......

For our wedding, we used Star Wars Lego figurines for the boutonnieres.  Yep, we're that dorky.  (And you were warned!) 

Some people loved them, some people hated them.  No doubt a lot of people thought we were weird.....  But we loved the idea!  And that's what counts, (for a wedding anyway).

Here are some pictures:

Nerd love is the best kind.
