We’re scheming ideas from this Star Wars: The Force Awakens wedding fashion line (up to size 5X!)

Hot Topic has been partnering with lady fandom heroines Her Universe to give us pretty rad Doctor Who and Marvel dress and fashion lines, but their Star Wars: The Force Awakens line is kicking up all kinds of ideas for Star Wars weddings. With sizes from XS to 5X, I’m picturing a whole slew of BB-8, Stormtrooper, and Kylo Ren-inspired bridesmaids. All of the styles are kind of cosplay-lite that could easily blend into both daily life AND geeky wedding fashion. Let’s take a peek at the collection of The Force Awakens wedding fashion.

Game of Thrones wedding details for your totally non-Red Wedding

You guys: season six of Game of Thrones happens THIS SUNDAY. Are you as excited as we are? I’ve remained very spoiler-free, but I havent’ been able to resist thinking about our featured Game of Thrones weddings. I found more GoT wedding details that I had to share with you. I kind of want most of it just for my own use, but obviously it would all be killer at a Game of Thrones wedding. Just maybe keep the red and purple details to a minimum just in case? Let’s peek at the edible dragon eggs, crystal crowns, dragon scale rings, and “wedding is coming” temporary tattoos.
