The offbeat bride: Diane, Online Games Consultant (and Tribe member)

Her offbeat partner: Nicolas, Head of Marketing Effectiveness

Location & date of wedding: Old Palace, Hatfield House, UK — October 30, 2010

What made our wedding offbeat: We are theater and games geeks and we lived for a while in the UK and loved it. We tried incorporating all of that in the wedding. Our invitations were in the form of a theater play program. We are both French as are most of our guests, so the venue and theme were offbeat for them.

Candance and Erik has a simple ceremony at the registry office in London. They created a vinage feel with her lovely satin gown and Erik's pin-stripe suit and hat. Friends from all over the world came to see them wed and Candance rocked a leather jacket and skull ring to keep things 'her.'

Did you jaw totally drop when you saw a sneak peak of Ginny & Rob's amazing red rock wedding last week? Perhaps it was the freakin' full-size TARDIS that blew your gourd? Or maybe your a fan from way back when we featured her Star Wars poster STDs? All I can say is that this wedding is awesome and proves that you and/or your event can be nerdy and incredibly gorgeous. – Becc
