May 6 2009Another Day, Another Star Wars Wedding
Duncan Thomson, 41, and Sammi Gardiner, 39, just got married on Star Wars Day in a Star Wars themed ceremony. And you know what they say about a couple that Star Warses together: they, uh, probably go to conventions and collect action figures?
During the wedding, Mr Thomson told his bride: "I promise to protect you from carbon freezing and promise to protect you from the Dark Side, through hyperspace and into the far reaches of the galaxy."
The couple had to remove certain Star Wars references from the 20-minute civil service because "Jedi" is a recognised religion, he added.The bride's ring was made out of meteorite found in Canyon Diablo in the US, engraved with: "May the 4th be with you."
The couple, from the Isle of Wight, even invited the movie's director George Lucas, who wrote back to them saying he was unable to attend.
Oh really, George was 'unable to attend', huh? Do you think he was really unable or just TOO BUSY BEING A GIANT DICK AND TURNING HIS BACK ON HIS FANS. *flicking George the bird* You see this, George -- this one's for you. Yeah, and this ain't no regular bird either -- that's a Millennium Falcon, bitch!
Star Wars inspires couple's bizarre sci-fi wedding [telegraph]
Thanks to Tiago, who plans to marry in a Geekologie-themed wedding. Nice, Tiago, but NO ROBOTS.

Great! Yet another supporting reason for involuntary euthanasia. Those poor children should be taken away and placed in foster homes before they suffer a sad life of getting beat up for their lunch money, working in IT, and ultimately having a Shrek wedding. Losers.

Why doesn't anyone do a Planet of the Apes wedding? I can see the groom pounding his fists into the beach screaming WHAT DID I JUST DO? DAMN YOU ALL TO HELLLLLLLLLL!

Why the hell should the Han need to protect the Leia from carbon freezing? Pssh, some fans these two are!

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You cvan tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max had a drink with Mace Windu and then went to his hotel room. when he was there he hallucinated some weird stuff.
