Pulsing LED Tardis Engagement Ring Box
This miniature version of the Doctor’s Tardis features a pulsating LED light at the top of the famous police box from Etsy shop BitsWithByte. The light pulses at the same frequency as its full size counterpart on the show and comes with a ring insert and a inscription plate. “Just the thought of helping someone create their dream piece whether it be for a wedding, a present or for themselves, is my passion,” says shop owner Octavia. She also has a really cute, handmade Companion Cube engagement ring box available in her shop as well.
Consider A Tardis Ball Gown For Your Wedding
Here’s an alternative idea to a traditional white wedding dress for brides looking for something different (and geeky) for their wedding day. Based on a sketch by artist Anne-Louise Richards this Tardis ball gown was created by Redditor queenofhearts, a three month labor of love of over 120 hours of work, nearly 10m in fabric and 1500+ rhinestones swirling along the skirt.
A Doctor Who Inspired Wedding Through All Of Time And Space
Fans of the BBC science fiction series Doctor Who are going to love this styled shoot full of great inspiration for you and your companion’s wedding day. Huge Doctor fans themselves, photographer Candice Benjamin and Kiera of Jakfoto Films came up with the idea to put together a chic, Doctor Who styled shoot. “It gave us an excuse to watch more of the show AND try to pack in as many show references as possible without hitting people over the head with them, says Candice Bejamin. “We like to call them Easter-eggs. Our goal was to design a gorgeous wedding for those not familiar with the show, and for the fans let them have fun picking out Doctor Who references.”
Fans will definitely be able to ‘pick out’ those references throughout the shoot from the Tardis inspired window panes used in the ceremony, the Van Gogh/Doctor Who wedding cake by A Twist of Cake, the wedding stationary with Gallifrey writing and even the sophisticated color scheme that feels so Doctor Who. There is also a great wedding day video “Through All of Time and Space: Wedding Inspiration from Doctor Who” that accompanies the shoot from Jakfoto Films. The music on the video, “Doctor” by Chris Bartels of Anthem Falls Music is a beautiful instrumental that perfectly sets the mood for the bride and groom’s vows.
“I’ll take you as my Companion forever through all of time and space, I’m yours”…
Doctor Who Proposal Cake
One of my favorite nerdy bakers has a new fondant creation and it’s right up this blog’s alley. Ant of Nerdache Cakes created this super cute Doctor Who themed cake for an obviously awesome guy’s proposal to his girlfriend.
“The figures are of the couple themselves; He requested to be dressed as 10 but with 4’s scarf. Her clad in Donna Noble wedding gear…I’ve always wanted to do some sort of painted background, so I painted a nebula filled with stars behind the lovely couple. I used edible food colors, using a technique of dry brushing, water push and airbrush. Sooo fun.”
The Tardis is made from banana cake, dark chocolate crunch bits, ganache layers and is the 22nd Tardis cake Ant has made!
Through All Of Time And Space, I’m Yours
I came across this amazing Doctor Who styled video on Vimeo and was just blown away by everything about it. The music, “Doctor” by Chris Bartels of Anthem Falls Music is a beautiful instrumental that perfectly sets the mood and accompanies the bride and groom as they read their vows.
“I’ll take you as my Companion forever through all of time and space, I’m yours”…
You’ll find lots of great ideas to incorporate the Doctor into your own wedding in this video; the Tardis inspired window panes behind the officiant, the Van Gogh Doctor Who wedding cake by A Twist of Cake, the Gallifrey wedding stationary. You can tell these wedding vendors, Jakfoto Films, Candice Benjamin Photography and First Pick Planning, who styled this video are not only great at what they do but Doctor Who fans at heart.
An Ood Proposal For A Doctor Who Fan
Waiting outside Virginia Tech for one very surprised Doctor Who fan was of all things an Ood, one of the alien races in the long-running science fiction series Doctor Who.
It was November 1st, the day after Halloween,” says Imgur user Astrid117, “He was handing out candy dressed as an Ood! I got out of class and saw him and I was pretty freaked out honestly! I didn’t want to go up to him but I saw that he had Reese’s in his hand so I decided to get some free candy. I had no idea it was him. He was completely covered head to toe in new clothes, and he even bought a voice changer so I didn’t recognize his voice.”
A huge Doctor Who fan, she went up to him to show off the Ood she had drawn on her laptop. He then asked her if “I wanted to take a quiz to win River Song’s diary,” adds Astrid117, “He had it placed in a box in such a way that it looked like there were a lot of them. I had to answer seven questions to win the diary!”
A Ring Box That’s Bigger On The Inside?
Artist Paul Pape creates amazing work from prop reproductions to cake toppers “custom created geekery” ,as he puts it, drawing inspiration from World of Warcraft to Mario Bros. To more recently Doctor Who in the form of ring boxes!
Remember that popular TARDIS ring box which made its rounds online? It was a great idea but only an after shot of a completed DIY and the how to was never posted. Everyone wanted to know how they to could make or just get their hands on one. Paul has created his own take on the Doctor Who ring box the first version (pictured above) and a second version which holds two rings and lights up! Paul created all the wiring and switches himself, and constructed it out of micro plywood and sheets of Pop-Out Woodies.
Olivia + James’ Doctor Who Themed Engagement Shoot
When Kari first met her client Olivia to discuss her upcoming wedding, she knew she had found her Whovian couple from the way bride-to-be Olivia was dressed. “When I met Olivia to discuss her wedding photography, she was wearing a Doctor Who T-shirt,” says Kari, “so instead of talking about weddings we geeked out on Doctor Who for a good 30 minutes. I immediately had the idea for a Doctor Who Engagement Session and I’m so excited that I get clients who want to try such things.”
Holly + Ross’ Space and Time Wedding
Kristina & Tom’s Whovian Wedding
This Doctor Who loving couple’s wedding was full of fantastic Doctor Who details from their TARDIS blue wedding party and TARDIS topped wedding cake, but what really stood out was their TARDIS inspired ceremony arch (that’s a lot of TARDISes)! Photographer Samantha Robshaw was on hand to capture this Whovian wedding at the historical Slater Cotton Mills in Pawtucket, Rhode Island.
I love the little details in this wedding; the groom’s Sonic Screwdriver boutonniere, the bride’s bookish hair fascinator and even the Hobbit-sized ring bearer who made an appearance carrying the ring around his neck. Appropriately, the groom yelled out “Allonsy!” prior to kissing his bride at the ceremony.
