Forget the boring, white dress and predictable speeches – Megan and Marcus’ wedding was a vibrant explosion of nerdy fun, love, and Star Wars!
These two lovebirds met through friends, but don’t let the meet-cute fool you. Megan, with her keen eye for detail (and a slight judgment towards sandal-wearing nerds), discovered a true partner in Marcus, a biology whiz with a heart of gold (and a knack for winning her over).
Their love story unfolded amidst a menagerie of furry and scaled companions – three cats, two guinea pigs, fish, and a biodome bursting with fascinating critters. I got to know all of this while capturing some gorgeous engagement photos with Megan and Marcus in Frankfort, MI.
These sweeties incorporated their interests into all of their wedding day details, with Megan rocking multi-colored corn-on-the-cob earrings gifted by her Dad (talk about unique!).
But the real showstopper was the Star Wars theme! From Megan’s manicure to the officiant’s funny and heartfelt reading, the Force was strong with this celebration.
Lightsabers for guests to battle with, custom M&Ms featuring the couple’s names and colors, and even a costume change into Han Solo and Princess Leia – this was a wedding that embraced their passions with gusto!
The ceremony, held at the beautiful CobbleStone Farm, was filled with sweet and tender moments. Megan’s emotional first look with her Dad, the personalized Star Wars-themed vows, and the hilarious “God is great, let’s eat!” prayer before the meal – it was a celebration of love, laughter, and family.

And what’s a wedding without dancing? The first dances, filled with genuine emotion, were followed by a party that saw guests unleashing their inner Jedi with lightsabers and indulging in delicious treats from Peace, Love, and Little Donuts.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow on the nearby road, Megan and Marcus stole away for some epic photos with their last name proudly displayed. These images captured the essence of their unique love story – playful, adventurous, and brimming with joy.
This wasn’t just a wedding; it was an experience. A testament to the power of embracing your individuality, celebrating your passions, and surrounding yourself with people who love you for who you are. And let’s not forget the amazing team, who captured the magic of the day with their incredible talent and enthusiasm.
So, if you’re looking for wedding inspiration that’s anything but ordinary, look no further than Megan and Marcus’s epic Star Wars celebration! May the Force be with you on your own love journey.
