Have you dreamed of a Star Wars inspired wedding day? From having Storm Troopers walk you down the aisle to having a light saber fight on your wedding day – there are loads of ways to incorporate Star Wars inspiration into your wedding day. Check out our top tips below!
Top tips to acheive this look
FANCY DRESS & props REQUIRED
You can go the whole way and get actors in, or, incorporate some headpieces. Lightsabers are essential for when its gets dark.
THE LITTLE DETAILS
Incorporate little touches into button holes, bouquets or stationery. You can even colour match your confetti too!
ACTION SHOTS
Get yourself a creative photographer who can help set up some amazing action shots for you.

Props - Fancy dress required!
Well not literally fancy dress but getting a couple of storm troopers along to your Star Wars Inspired Wedding day really make an impact. You could even get Darth Vader too! Unless you want one of your friends to dress up (which might not be wholly ideal) you can hire actors for a few hours to help create your own army. Or a Yoda page boy would look awesome! Get them in your photos, walking you down the aisle, or, even popping up in the photobooth like below!

Hand painted jackets are super popular right now – but how about this Storm Trooper inspired jacket for something personalised and one-off? We LOVE these creations from Shoodle Shoes – you can even get hand painted shoes for your special day. Photo courtesy of tribe member Pink Photographics.
Alternatively, you can get some funky shots wearing a Star Wars head piece. Check out this photo below of the groomsmen! Get creative!

Props - Bring out the light sabers!
It has to be said that Light Sabers are one of the best props for acheiving a Star Wars inspired wedding day. Especially when you add a creative photographer to the mix that can create photos like the one featured below! Make sure you check when its going to get dark and your photographer will still be there!
They can also be used to line your aisle after you’ve got married or to create a dramatic end of evening exit shot!
