THE GIRL    My name is Cassandra and I created this blog out of a love for geeky things, video games and web design. I try to update as much as possible but I do have a full time job as a CG Artist. I previously worked in the video game industry for a few years before my current position on a popular CG television series. Besides blogging and work, I’m a gamer girl at heart who loves killing zombies, especially the Call of Duty kind.

Do you have any photos from your wedding?
Here are a few from my October 31st, 2010 wedding taken by the talented photographer DeAnna Gallardo. My wedding was on Halloween, the theme was zombie/Gothic, and I wore a silver wedding dress instead of a traditional white one. Our friend who was our officiant made an extremely elaborate skeleton priest costume to wear, which everyone thought was incredible (even our families surprisingly). I did a lot of diys for my wedding: the flowers arrangements or the ceremony, menus, programs, favors and table numbers because I would have had to get these things all custom made to match the zombie theme. I figured why have someone else do what I could do myself (plus it saved us a lot of money). The geekiest part of my wedding – was when I walked down the aisle to the theme to Halo the video game.
