It is with tremendous pride and a huge amount of barely contained geek excitement that I make the following announcement:
Rebel Belle Weddings has officially partnered with The New Starship Foundation to produce and coordinate their first Star Trek themed Wedding on The Bridge as well as their Grand Gala Opening Night Celebration!
Wait….what?!?
OK, let me back up. First, I have a confession – all you Star Wars and Doctor Who people I’ve been working with? Love it. It’s all good. But truth be told, I’m a Trek girl at heart. Specifically, Next Gen. So when I discovered that The New Starship Foundation, a nonprofit organization, was restoring one of the Next Generation bridge sets in order to create an interactive museum and…HOST WEDDINGS?!? Suffice to say I was all over that like Troi on a double chocolate hot fudge sundae. (Sorry. I warned you. I’m really geeking out over this!)
All fanaticism aside, what this means is: Star Trek weddings are happening, near the end of the year, right here in Southern California – and Rebel Belle Weddings will be there! If you’d like to learn more about the plans for The New Bridge, visit The New Starship Foundation’s website and follow them on Facebook or Twitter. In the meantime, I’ll just be over here designing phaser flower vases, communicator boutonnieres, and trying to explain to caterers why, exactly, Romulan Ale is contraband.
