Wedding themes are no rarity, but a SCRABBLE wedding? I never would have guessed, until I came across "10 Ways to Incorporate Scrabble Into Your Wedding" at CasaSugar. Now, I'm one of the biggest SCRABBLE nerds out there, but I could never see myself getting hitched amongst SCRABBLE tiles and SCRABBLE cakes and SCRABBLE cuff links. I'd also be afraid that none of my guests would actually come if they knew SCRABBLE was the theme. Hell, it's hard enough to get any of my friends to play a simple game!
But if you're looking to merge two happinesses together — your one true love and your future spouse — c'mon, we all know SCRABBLE would be the "true love" — then check out these pictures to find examples and inspiration for a "Fabulous Scrabulous Wedding".
The Proposal
The proposal might be the hardest thing to incorporate SCRABBLE into, but Erica found a way. As Christine reluctantly started a game with Erica in their favorite cafe, she was surprised to find a ring inside the tile bag. She gasped. Erica got down on knees and asked, "Will you grow old with me?" There was even a hidden photographer standing by to take secret photos of the proposal. Amazing. To see the full story, click here.

SCRABBLE Wedding Planners

SCRABBLE Engagement Pictures
Before you get too crazy with all of the planning, some nice engagement photos might be nice to show off to your friends and family, to let everyone know you're serious... not only about your future spouse, but your commitment to your SCRABBLE-themed wedding!

SCRABBLE Wedding Jewelry
Every wedding needs wedding rings, so why not go that extra step and SCRABBLize them? You can even get SCRABBLE cuff links for the groom and best man, and necklaces for the flower girl.

SCRABBLE Wedding Favors / Gifts
After the partying is all over, it's nice if your guests could take home something to remember the occasion. After all, they got you big gifts, the least you could do is give them small gifts in return.

The Honeymoon
Who could forget about this after-wedding phase, the honeymoon period? Two newlyweds, Kevin and Zhou, are "two young honeymooners searching the world for the meaning of life," and every now-and-then playing a game of SCRABBLE during their travels. Below are their SCRABBLE photos. And they encourage donations for every game they play (all proceeds go to the Ronald McDonald House).

ok now i'm kind of jealous...
Fantastic! So in-depth and elaborate, great post!
Thanks! I'm pretty sure there's a million other possibilities for lexically great Scrabble wedding, too.
Ack! I totally took those cheesy names on a scrabble board pic. Oh well. I guess I bought into the nerdy hipster wedding theme.
Really? The contest pictures? I don't think they're cheesy... well... maybe just a little.
I can really tell that this couple was first met when they are still playing scrabble. I really like the idea of courting and expressing your self on scrabble..very cute...
had to write back and say what an amazing experience I had with Doc obodo. I was desperate for a kind and gentle man to enter my life when I ran into your website templeofanswer@hotmail.co.uk doing some surfing. I had a phone +2348155425481 consultation with Doc obodo and I found him to be so helpful, gentle and reassuring. Within a couple of weeks, I met a guy in a dance club who really swept me off my feet. I've been with him for several months now and we seem to be the perfect couple. All it took was one visit to Doc obodo and my life is as good as it has ever been. I need to thank Doc obodo for caring about me enough to send me such a wonderful and powerful spell. , Jane

I would love to be of help to anyone planning a scrabble themed wedding. I currently do wedding signs with scrabble tiles that I photograph but can easily do save the dates and table numbers too.
