Nerd Love

In honor of tomorrows premier of The Dark Knight Rises, I have decided to totally geek out on everyone and write a post dedicated to my fellow nerds out there in the universe. As Dr. Seuss says, "“We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.”
So, here are some ideas about how to share your nerd love with your friends and family on the big day (and heads up, lots of these ideas use recycled, reclaimed or otherwise earth-friendly ingredients).

These boutonnieres can save the world
Here's one for the dudes, so they can wear their nerd love on their sleeves (well, technically their lapels). The first ones are obviously made from action figures (which if you are any kinda nerd, you will have plenty of ), and the second one is actually a flower made out of comic book paper. Rad!

 These shoes are made for totally Geeking out!
Brides make a statement by showing off some awesome shoes under your gown! Or make your bridesmaids match your nerdiness with shoes like these:

You're invited to dance awkwardly and share trivia/movie quotes with us!

Love of dessert is something that can unite all nerd subgroups, whether they are into Dr. Who or Y the Last Man. So here are some awesome ideas to get you started: 

My gift to you is epic AWESOMENESS
Trying to narrow down which amazing favors to add to this little list was difficult. There are so many talented nerds out there making far too many cool things that would make for great wedding favors, for instance:
Harry Potter themed candy...chocolate frog anyone?

 I remember loving viewfinders when I was 5 and I still love them now. I cannot be the only one

 These adorable little guys are actually plush mini microbes. Yes, you can say someone got gonorrhea at your wedding and totally not feel weird about it

 Tiny little Pac-Man candy...too cute. Now to find a tiny little person to play this machine....

 Felted and/or knitted things are great...make them in miniature and they're even better

I would totally write more on this topic, but I have to go work on my Penguin costume for the Dark Knight Rises premier tomorrow at midnight! Woo
So Part 2 to be continued
