I loved seeing the EVE cake topper post, and that inspired me to post some of the EVE elements from my wedding to James Damar in October of 2010! We met in EVE when we both joined HAVOC corp together, so it was fitting that EVE play a part in our wedding as well.
I suppose the EVE theme started back before our wedding with our engagement pictures. We have a few, but this is one of my favorites:
For our wedding we chose to have an EVE themed cake. We thought about having a Hel and a Nyx topper made (those are ships that we've both been known to fly) but having a topper created for us proved to be too expensive. So we went another route and had images of each ship printed in edible ink on our cake! Our concept continued with cupcakes in decorated in friendly and enemy fleet colors having a fleet fight around our motherships. Here are a few images I stitched together:
We decided to have our table names also be EVE related, both in font and the names themselves. All tables were named after cap and super caps - Hel, Nyx, Aeon, Avatar, Erebus, Wyvern, Moros, Phoenix, Archon, Naglfar, Chimera (funny sidenote: we thought about seating my church friends at the table named "Hel", but figured we'd skip the drama and seat our EVE friends there instead. :P) As I was putting these together, I was searching all over for a "spacey" looking font... completely forgetting that one had been created using EVE's logo! Silly me. lol Once a friend hit me over the head with a link to the font, I knew that was what it would have to be. Here's a board of the table names:
We also used the EVE font in our programs. Our Dutch versions were longer then the English versions, so they had more EVE font headers. Here's pic of the Dutch version:
Lucky for James, we both play EVE, so no wife aggro for him. :P ______________________________________________

Thank you!
Originally by: cpu939 cool photos see you around leandra
*hugs* Thank you and I hope so! I miss chatting with you!
Originally by: Therik As it turns out I never actually attended your wedding. It was a cake farming bot which I am selling for isk. Loved the wedding.
ROFL! I love it! I can't wait to see you and MrsTherik and the MiniTheriks in October! :)
Originally by: Naomi Wildfire While i loved the topper of the other thread, am i the only one who thinks this one is going to far? I love eve but if a friend of mine would do such a thing i would send him to a psychiatrist.
I dont mean to offend or insult you and if i did, i'm sorry.
It's what we both wanted - it's not for everyone, but it was right for us. :)
Originally by: CCP Navigator Congratulations to you both! The EVE themed wedding looks pretty cool 
Thank you! We lived on different continents prior to getting married, so if it wasn't for EVE (and Fanfest 2008 to be specific) we wouldn't have met! So a big Thank You to EVE from both of us. :)

Originally by: Norian Lonark
Its a bloody good eve themed wedding for sure cant be too many of them about 
Thank you!
Originally by: Therik
She had the traditional white wedding thing too... But no one on EVO would give a crap so they didnt post those pics.
Therik is indeed correct (he should be since he was there lol). Since this is EVE and more men will read this then women, I'm going under the assumption that most of you don't care about the details of the rest of our wedding, so the post is about just about the EVE elements. 
Originally by: vulnevia I will let the next eve-couple hire my Plush Dominix to use as one of those frilly pillows that carries the rings. It will cost... a Guardian-Vexor.
Awww... I would have loved that! I didn't have a ring bearer though... lol my nephew was less then 2 years old and we didn't think he'd walk down the aisle willingly. lol
Originally by: Athena Olympia I've loved watching the progress of your relationship and all the pictures of everything!
Thanks for sharing :)
~Athena
*hugs* Thank you!! It's been a pleasure sharing them with you!
Originally by: fattrader II that's awesome, congratulations to you both!
Thank you! :)

Edited by: Leandra Anor on 17/05/2011 09:44:41 Menai - *hugs* You are always welcome to come for a visit and homemade goodies of your choice! :)
Major Stonewall - Wow! That brought back memories... R03 was good times for a long time. :) At least until the split up! :D I have to admit that I do not have ANY desire to go back to being a diplomat in any way shape or form anytime in the forseeable future. lol Thank you for the well wishes! :)
Pah Triac - James smiled when I showed him your post. Thanks for the well wishes! I tried to get him to post a reply to you, but you know him and EVE-O. lol
BlueKind - Thank you! :) I'm a cupcake fan too. :D
The Mad King - *blink* are you stalking me? I didn't even post a pic of the cookies we baked for the wedding! :P ______________________________________________

Originally by: Alpheias I am more interested in a EVE themed divorce
You'll have to figure that one out on your own. :) Divorce isn't in my vocabulary.  ______________________________________________

Originally by: Alpheias
I have no desire for a ball on a chain and divorces is hardly this uncommon thing. If two geeks can tie the knot EVE-style then surely...?
Still isn't in my vocabulary. You'll have to search elsewhere.  ______________________________________________

Holy cow this thread exploded! To everyone - Thank you for your good wishes and compliments!
NightCrawler - *hugs* thank you!! :)
Neily - That would be telling! lol There were some pretty interesting guesses in our guestbook though.... lol I think I can safely nix the idea of naming a child "Moros" or "Archon"... :P
CCP Punkturis - Thank you! :) I want more EVE cake too!
Brinid Navarre - haha! If we are talking wish lists, then I think both of us would have quite the list. :P
Solstice Project - ROFLMAO! You made both my hubby and I and my sister in law lol on that one. :D
Djakku - I hope she ends up liking EVE as much as I do! :)
Feiryred - lol
Baldari - *hugs* It's been ages! It's been a blast knowing you as well. I remember joining your corp and learning pvp, and then joining with Rah very fondly! As for a junior - that's up to the big guy in the sky. :)
Valdamerca - We could have done a lot of things - after we won the lottery big time that is! This is what we could afford and I have no wishes of anything different. :)
Pyro - Thank you so much! :)
Akov - Long time no chat! Glad you like it. :)
Matt (Danneh) - *big hugs* I wish you could have been at the wedding sweetheart! You brought us together!! We both send huge hugs and lots of love back your way.
Mynxee - Thank you! I know a couple others as well. :) One of whom started immigration processes for her husband at the same time I did for mine. :D
I did leave out one part of the story... :) We met in person for the first time in Iceland at Fanfest 2008. Anyone who has the EON magazine that covered that fanfest has probably seen one of the first pictures of James and I together. For anyone that hasn't seen it, here's part of that spread: ______________________________________________

Originally by: Manfred Sideous Leandra the wedding and reception was awesome. I can remember walking into the reception hall and busting out laughing when I saw the Eve theme and then geeking out and loving it. Was a awesome time and great great company. Wouldn't have missed it for the world.
Thank you sweetie!! It meant the world to both of us to have you there! *hugs* ______________________________________________
