The only thing traditional about this wedding was the bride wearing white — although her dress was emblazoned with handmade crystal X-Wing starfighters.
Working with the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, the couple married in front of their closest friends — Chewbacca, R2-D2, several Jedi Knights, and a Stormtrooper. Darth Vader walked Ritter down the aisle to the strains of "The Imperial March," and a friend who goes by "Obi-Shawn" officiated. The reception wasn't held at an out-of-this-world cantina, but rather at the theater, complete with Dunkin' Donuts and a Baskin-Robbins ice cream cake festooned with the couple's favorite Star Wars characters.
