There are plenty of brides who want their wedding ceremony to look like something out of a book—but this comic book wedding is far less fairy tale and way more nerd-tastic than usual.
The wedding of Felicia and Joe features everything that would make for the perfect geeky wedding. Although the bride did sport a gorgeous Vera Wang wedding gown, this seems to be about the only traditional element to the wedding. Rather than flowers, Felicia walked down the aisle with a bouquet made from paper comic books. The groom was outfitted in a full white Power Rangers suit, and the reception included plenty of nerdy nostalgic elements like Perlers, glow sticks, Lord of the Rings cupcakes and a cake that looked like Bilbo Baggins' Shire.
