Being huge Doctor Who fans, Lua and Pedro knew as soon as they were engaged what their wedding theme would be. The celebration was held at Solar das Palmeiras in Rio de Janeiro.”

“As we are both geeks and great fans of TV shows, we thought our wedding couldn’t be a regular wedding”, began the bride. “We had to choose something that would look like us. We chose the British TV show Doctor Who for our inspiration. With the help of Pinterest, we collected ideas of how to make our special night even more special. I tried to spend as much time as I could making props and decoration items we could use, and the result was awesome. People at the wedding couldn’t really tell it was a themed wedding, but everybody agreed it looked just like us. They said they felt as if they were celebrating at our own house.

“One of our favourite (and funniest!) parts was our dog as the ring bearer!”, she continued. “He dressed up in a tuxedo and my nephew held his dog leash. Both of them were responsible for bringing our wedding rings to the altar.”

“The décor was very much DIY. I made many, many things! I made the stars used to decorate the gardens where the ceremony took place, painted the doors used in the ceremony, made all the photo frames, cut the props for the photo booth. I could have bought these things but it was much cheaper to make them myself (and I really enjoyed doing it!)”
