Not everybody ‘ships Dick Grayson and Barbara Gordon, but after looking at these photos, you’ll definitely be ‘shipping newlyweds Seth and Laura. He grew up loving Nightwing. She grew up loving Batgirl. ‘Nuff said.

Scotland legislature is currently considering a Marriage and Civil Partnership Bill with an interesting stipulation for a “third type of ceremony.” Designed to give secular yet philosophical organizations or movements that set themselves apart from organized religion or even religion in the first place the ability to hold legal marriage ceremonies, it allows “groups promoting a belief” to marry people.
Now, before you go “Oh, come on, nerds, just because they put some vague wording in you’ve connected it to Star Wars, stop seeing stuff that isn’t there,” you should know that it’s not us that’s saying this opens the door for actual Jedi weddings. It’s the Free Church of Scotland.

In what may be one of the greatest moments in geek history, it was announced Sir Ian McKellen would marry longtime friend and colleague Sir Patrick Stewart. The only way this story could have been better would be if they were marrying each other.

That’s kind of what you were thinking, wasn’t it? Anyway, the Chandler’s looked like they had a whole lot of fun on their special day complete with friends and relatives who were willing to dress up as Disney characters to make it happen. Take a look at the extremely colorful wedding day.

Photographer Eric Cash of Shift-4 Photography made one couple’s Back to the Future dreams come true with a fabulous “Save the Date” shoot. Jarrett and Abbie enlisted an Atlanta based Delorean owner to complete their already awesome look. We also adore Abbie for going the less obvious route. “Since I’m currently in medical school, I thought it much more appropriate to dress up as Doc instead of Jennifer,” she said. Let’s just hope their kids don’t turn out to be you-know-whats.

These Game of Thrones wedding invites by Devan Nichole (Nimbi Designs on Etsy) are gorgeous, but… look, [vague book three spoiler] GoT weddings don’t tend to go well, let’s just say that. This seems like asking for trouble.
That said, if I were having a wedding, and if it were taking place in winter, having invites that say “Winter is coming” would probably be an awesome enough concept that I’d risk it.
Hit the jump to see Nichole’s Targaryen-themed invite. May your marriage end better than Daeneyrs and Khal Drogo’s.

There’s certainly something to be said about a traditional proposal but they won’t get you a spotlight on the internet. Proposing to your significant other using Star Wars LEGO mini-figs however… Click ahead to see the Stormtrooper’s point of view.

Storm troopers walking down the aisle. A superhero theme. Thousands of geeks looking on. That’s what Amy and Rob Bridges got for their wedding. It took place at 2012′s Fan Expo Canada, and now you can watch it, too.

When you’re getting married in a cathedral right in front of the Pittsburgh location of The Dark Knight Rises filming, what are you supposed to do? You crawl right on into that Batmobile, that’s what. Take off your shoes if necessary, and try not to rip your dress–but even if you do, it’s worth it, right? Michelle and Rich found themselves in this exact situation when they were getting married last year, and they handled it like pros: They persuaded the crew of TDKR to let them take their wedding pictures in Batman’s Tumbler. You can listen to the groom’s version of the story here.
Jealousy, we have it.

"SHARKS. Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the uterus." - A thing I just said in chat, sans context.

In a perfect world, that would make those men MORE sympathetic to women when they talk about objectification of women in media.
Susana Polo
But really the take away from this is that two seconds of quickly covered up Chris Hemsworth stomach makes some men feel objectified.
Susana Polo
Good to know that a broad trend across much of visual media has effected one man, in one shot. We can all go home, sexism is over.
Susana Polo
Whenever we bring up objectification of women in modern action movies, people always bring up the one shot of Chris Hemsworth shirtless.
