Turtle Wedding

Garreth · 05-30-2015, 10:48 AM

So I recently got married and instead of having a flower in the pocket, I had a turtle figure. I had Leo cause I was the lead dude, and my 3 groomsman had the others.

Was good. Way cooler than flowers

Cool idea. I might do something similar if I ever get married, but with DC heroes instead.

ImmaAxolotl · 05-30-2015, 11:14 AM

I'm caught between doing this to my wedding or doing Pokémon. Well, I haven't even "met" anyone yet, so I have a few years to figure it out!

Anywho, congratulations on the wedding! I bet it was awesome!

*IndigoErth* · 05-30-2015, 11:39 AM

Hah, that's cute.

Grats on getting married!

Never really gave that any thought, I'd prob only give a subtle nod if any, but now you've got me considering that "something blue" line... A little blue ribbon-like mask might be very easy to include somehow. Hmmm.

Awesome!

Pictures?

billbot85 · 05-30-2015, 01:40 PM

Yes, please do send us photos if you have any! Sounds like such a cool idea. Would love to incorporate a turtle action figure into my wedding when my girfriend and I get married.

*DarkFell* · 05-30-2015, 04:03 PM

That's a fun idea that you came up with, and congrats on your wedding.

PangolinFeets · 05-30-2015, 04:40 PM

Cool and congrats!

I'd love to do something with turtles when I get married. I don't know if i can stash a figure in my dress. I know I'm wearing my red converses under my dress. Maybe I can get some Blue-red-purple-orange-colored garters. XD
I also like the idea of naming the tables after mine and my boyfriend's favorite fandom areas. Like one table can be the Sewer Lair or something like that.
Boy, the family is gonna love me. XD

Pangolin, you will never have a better chance to justify a TMNT wedding cake. Just sayin'.

Either an actual Turtle-shaped cake, or a more traditional cake with TMNT figures on top?

*Shark_Blade* · 05-31-2015, 02:30 AM

Congrats!

For a moment I thought someone suggested the turtles get married and just.. *facepalm* lol

Heck, some people include a second "groom's cake" now that can be anything you want, so perfect excuse to a second cake that's entirely Turtles themed.

I have SO many ideas for nerdy, geeky stuff at my wedding, which isn't even on the horizon as I'm not engaged, that I have to go in an cull back every so often. As much as I love TMNT, I also love Kaiju and Final Fantasy and horror themes so I have to find an appropriate balance.

That being said, a TMNT cake could be sooooo cool. It could be done so many ways! I've seen people do manhole cakes with the boys lifting it up, like the posters from the 1st movie. Or just having figures on the cake because I do love my figures.

I just hope the man is ok with it. He's not much of a TMNT fan. lol
To be honest, I don't really like cake. I might just get a pile of doughnuts and give them TMNT colors.

Me and my girl want a nerd wedding and we're already thinking of some stuff, for example we'll be dressed in a similar fashion to Leia's and Han's clothes from Star Wars (still have to convince her to have the best man dressed as Chewbacca and her father as Darth Vader though LOL), we'll give LEGO minifigs to our guests and the tables will reference places from movies and video games like Raccoon City, Silent Hill, Hoth or Mordor for example, we still have to think on some way to put the Turtles in there, maybe have the band dressed as them?

I'm getting married in October. My partner and I have asked the lady who's making the cake to put two figures on top. The bride figure will be wearing a Harry Potter scarf (the Mrs is a fan), and for the groom figure to be sporting an orange mask round It's eyes

If I remember i'll post some pics

Kanon · 06-01-2015, 04:01 AM

Ooze-Punch as drink at the party would be cool.
And you drink it out of a long glass with an little umbrella that looks like a manhole cover
