THE LOW-DOWN
Kristen and George’s May the 4th wedding at BLB Hacienda was such a fun event for us to help plan and coordinate! The happy couple celebrated their love for Star Wars and the song, “Colors of the Wind” from Disney’s Pocahontas through their thoughtful event details. It was a genuine pleasure for Jordan from our team to be part of their celebration as their Day-of wedding planner.
Not only did Kristen and George’s May the 4th wedding date honor Star Wars, but many of their event details did, as well. The groom wore black and white Star Wars themed socks. The droid, R2D2, was their ring bearer, something we hadn’t seen before. And the couple even brought lightsabers and carried them into their reception, using the lightsabers in the classic “shoe game.”
Their second wedding theme, “Colors of the Wind,” was also reflected throughout the event. Kristen and George had a colorful, custom welcome sign for their ceremony, and used a hand-painted mailbox as their card box. They opted for brightly colored florals that suited the theme as well as their spring wedding date. For their unity ceremony, they poured colored paints down a canvas to create a unique work of art. Even their brightly colored wedding cake captured the essence of “Colors of the Wind.” There’s no question that Kristen and George successfully blended two very different themes into one cohesive and memorable event!

WHAT WE LOVED
The Just Marry! team so enjoyed working with Kristen and George on their May the 4th wedding at BLB Hacienda! We asked their Just Marry! wedding planner, Jordan, a few questions about their event and this is what she shared:
What was something about this event that really stood out to you?
Kristen and George had R2D2 as their ring bearer! He brought the rings during the ceremony for the couple. It was so fun and made everyone laugh
What fun elements did the couple include?
