Nerd Wedding

Hello everyone.

I think we can get a little personal now since I am writing this post about getting married. Before heading to Chicago Comic Con (or previously Wizard World Chicago) on Saturday, August 21st, my husband and I boldly went where neither one of us have gone before. To make things nerdier, we held our Star Trek themed nuptials at Challengers Comics+Conversation where co-owner Pat Brower officiated the ceremony. We will be having a more traditional ceremony for our families in about a years time, but as far as custom made weddings are concerned, this could not have been more perfect for us. There was even a Borg cube cake! A special thanks to Pat for going above and beyond our requests; and to Michelle, Molly, Shelby and Dane for participating, especially Molly for making the delicious wedding day desserts. You can view images and video of the short ceremony below:

The Vulcan taking photographs was my cousin, Veronica. I constructed both her's, mine, and my husband's uniforms.The bridesmaids and best man purchased their own.

This vegan Borg cube cake has been assimilated!

Since I'm still living the transitory lifestyle, I have yet to get this whole blogging-on-a-regular-basis thing down. But after one year, I think I've had enough practice to start kicking things into high gear. And I'm married now, so you know, automatically more grown up. Expect more frequent updates starting....now!
