Remember the wacky wedding placemats made by Liz? Well, Liz is back with another of her great wedding creations — weird wedding survival kits for the adorably nerdy.
I'd seen this idea on a few blogs, but wanted to make it my own. Since I'm a Star Trek nerd, and Kevin's a Star Wars nerd, we had to include something from each universe in our particular kits.
Here's the list of what we've included…
- Mints (Nintendo controller tins)
- Bandaids (Batman and Spiderman)
- Burt's Bees lip balm
- Shout Wipes
- Tums Instant Dissolve
- Tylenol
- Aleve
- Kleenex
- Star Wars lightsaber chopsticks (Our rehearsal dinner is in a Chinese restaurant)
- Star Trek Pez Dispenser (Sugar for those “oh, crap, forgot to eat!” moments)
Before:

Then we stuffed the bags and cut some pretty scrapbook paper to size. We rolled the end of the bag to seal it, and stapled the pretty paper to the top.
After:
We'll finish them off with stickers on the paper, like so:
I'm very stoooopidly proud of this. I love them, and I know our wedding party will love them, and I love that we got to “nerd up” this whole idea.
