Superhero Themed Wedding Invitations
When you design your wedding invitations choose a fun comic book inspired theme that will embody your favorite hero. For example you can use the unique “Pow” and “Bam” bubble words that were seen in the original batman cartoon, or have invitations that appear to be spider webs. The options here are truly endless allowing unique creations that will truly make your wedding “one of a kind.”
You can carry this theme on through the map you create for directions to the venue, thank you cards and save the date mailers. Not only will this be a fun way to use your theme, it will ensure complementing features making your wedding completely successful and original.
Surprise T-Shirts for Groomsmen
Superman and Batman have secret identities, now you groomsmen can to. Have each groomsman wear their super hero of choice t-shirt beneath their tux. During pictures or even after the vows are read, they can rip away their outer button up shirts to reveal their secret identity. This will be fun for both the wedding participants, as well as those sitting in the audience.
Superhero Themed Table Names
Are you seeking a classic and modern vibe for your reception? Consider naming each of the tables and having the place holders situated inside of colorful arrangements. Some great table name options include Thor, The Flash, Spiderman, etc. You may also choose to use other related names for your wedding reception, such as Bruce Wayne or Kryptonite. It is a good idea to stick to a color palate that is cohesive to ensure that the reception you host looks put together and organized.
Decorations and Costumes
Just because the bride and groom will likely want to wear traditional wedding garb, you can have other friends and family dress as your favorite superheroes. Additionally, you can use colorful balloons and a superhero banner. Keep in mind, if you do not want a fully-clad Hulk walking through your wedding and reception, you can ask that guests simply bring one item that represents their favorite superhero.
Pez Holders
You can use the classic pez candy holder to serve as placeholders during the reception. This is a fun and unique way to take further advantage of what is offered by superhero weddings. There are a wide array of pez candy holders that would fit into your superhero theme, and the best part is that they are extremely affordable.
