Whoever said weddings are wack surely hasn’t seen this couple’s Walking Dead-inspired photo shoot or hasn’t heard of this other couple’s genius idea to have a weed bar at their wedding. Newlyweds Joey Pacheco and Robert Raven join the ranks of cool weddings by skipping a conventional first dance at their wedding and opting for a lightsaber duel. 

The Star Wars fans surprised wedding guests battling to the “Anakin vs. Obi-Wan” theme from Revenge of the Sith. “We didn't go as fast as we wanted because we didn't want to hurt each other,” the bride said. But that didn’t make it any less fun. “It felt like being part of Star Wars move scene with the music,” Joey added.

The couple married at the same place where they met in 2013 during an anime convention.
