May The Force Be With You: 9 Finds For Your Star Wars Themed Wedding!
May 4th is an extremely popular wedding date at The Vow Exchange. It’s usually a gorgeous late spring day in Kansas City. But that’s not the reason this date is highly requested. The reason can be explained in three words, “Star Wars Day” (also known as “May the 4th Be With You Day” - get it?). We have had the pleasure of hosting several Star Wars themed weddings at both of our venues over the years. Star Wars has one of the most devout fan bases of all time and those hard core fans find the coolest ways of incorporating their love for the franchise into their special day. With the final movie in the saga coming out this week, we thought it would be the perfect time to share our favorite 9 finds for making your Star Wars wedding come to life!
1. STAR WARS WEDDING INVITATIONS TEMPLATE
“Together the force is strong”. Let your guests know right off the bat what kind of wedding this is gonna be with this adorable Star Wars wedding invite template.

2. MUSIC (ENTRANCE SONG, EXIT SONG, FIRST DANCE, AND MORE)
John Williams is a master composer whose finest work can be found on the Star Wars soundtracks. Brilliant pieces such as “Across the Stars” and “Han and Leia Theme” would make beautiful entrance, exit, or first dance songs for your Star Wars wedding. Or better yet, go all in and play the soundtracks as background music throughout your entire event!
