Groom Dave Glaubitz has been a huge fan since the first movie came out when he was six years old.
He remembers getting goose bumps in the theatre, but his bride Stacy remembers getting cold feet when he suggested a Star Wars-themed wedding. She eventually agreed to a compromise of costumed guests for their reception in July.
That compromise also included the presence of various Star Wars collectibles at Monday’s wedding.
Dave’s hoping Stacy will come to the reception dressed as Princess Leia.
He’s not sure yet which character he’ll go with for the occasion.
