The Force made a special appearance tonight at the Oviatt Penthouse where I officiated a wedding in full Darth parody style. Dramatic voice, theatrical flair, and just enough galactic mischief to keep everyone laughing while the couple still got a beautiful, heartfelt ceremony. Honestly… weddings are more fun when a Sith Lord is in charge.

here is the script I used. They wanted a dark side light side ceremony. He was the light side. She was the dark side so I created this amazing merge of dark and light in their ceremony.
Have you thought about doing a cosplay ceremony? Let us know what you like and we can try and make it happen.
I am Darth Vader. Say Hi Darth
Greetings Sith Lords, Jedi Knights, clones, smugglers, bounty hunters, senators, rebel scum… and anyone whose destiny involves frosting.
You have traveled from many systems to be here today.
Some of you arrived out of loyalty. Some out of obligation.
And some because there was a clear promise of cake. All motivations are acceptable.
Before we proceed, a brief announcement.
For this portion of the ceremony, you are asked to silence your commlinks, data pads, and recording devices. Remain fully present. Witness this moment with your eyes, not your screens. Commit it to memory, not storage. You will have an opportunity to record later.
For now… simply observe. Any guest who activates a recording device will be personally judged by the Sith… and remembered…. Forever.
Let’s start with some music
We are gathered here today for a rare event in this galaxy.
A moment when Light and Dark have agreed to stand together peacefully… at least for the duration of this ceremony.
And if anyone present can think of a reason why these two should not be joined in galactic matrimony, you may speak now.
If so… Darth Maul has graciously offered to remove your legs with his double-bladed lightsaber,
Excellent…. hearing none and we will proceed

The Union
We are gathered here today to witness the joining of Erika of the Olivares System, proudly aligned with the Dark Side, and Tyler of Planet Dunn, devoted to the Light side.
This is not simply a wedding. This is a union of opposites.
A blending of shadow and light. A reminder that balance in the Force, does not come from one side winning, but from two people choosing each other.
For generations, the galaxy has told us that Light and Dark must always be at war.
That one must rise while the other falls. That conflict is inevitable. But, Today proves otherwise.
__________________________________
A Lesson from the Galaxy
This union reminds us that even in a galaxy torn apart by endless battles, balance is possible. General Grievous stood as a symbol of constant conflict.
Many blades. Endless war. No peace. No true alliance.
I have seen where that path leads. Power without connection leads to isolation.
Victory without love leads to emptiness. Erika and Tyler choose a different future.
They choose alliance over isolation. Connection over conquest. Love is their greatest power, stronger than any lightsaber, fleet, or army.

Their Story
Their story began, as all great stories do, a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
Somewhere between Dark Side confidence and Light Side optimism, these two discovered something powerful…a connection that could not be overpowered by Sith lightning or Jedi mind tricks.
What began as curiosity became trust. What became trust grew into devotion.
And what grew into devotion led them here today.
They learned early on that love is not about converting the other to your side of the Force.
It is about honoring the strength in your differences.

What Marriage Means
Today, we stand in the presence of love, devotion, and yes… a little Dark Side energy.
This marriage is recognized by the Republic Council, whispered about by the Jedi Order, quietly monitored by the Empire, and fully approved by anyone who believes in destiny.
Marriage, as Emperor Palpatine would say, is not about control, but about commitment.
It is about choosing your partner even when the galaxy is in chaos, the hyperdrive fails, or a protocol droid becomes overly dramatic.
Legend tells us that two who join their lives together shall rule their universe side by side.
Not through fear. Not through power alone.
But through loyalty, trust, humor, and shared rations during long nights of Jedi study beneath distant stars.

Light and Dark Defined
Erika brings the passion, intensity, and fearless confidence of the Dark Side.
She loves fiercely, commits fully, and protects what matters without hesitation.
Tyler brings the calm, hope, and steady heart of the Light.
He leads with compassion, patience, and faith in the good that can still be found.
Together, they form something far stronger than either side alone.
They promise to support one another in health and sickness, in victory and defeat, in calm times and galactic rebellions.
They promise to lift each other up, challenge each other when needed, and always return to one another… even after arguments that feel like Clone Wars.
And now… we come to the vows.

Tyler’s Vows (Light Side)
Erika, my love, my balance in the Force…
I promise to walk beside you with an open heart and steady hope.
I vow to lead with kindness, patience, and honesty, even when the Dark Side is very convincing.
I choose compassion over fear, love over anger, and us over everything else.
I will protect our home, our laughter, and our future.
I will be your calm in the chaos, your reminder that light always finds a way.
No matter what battles we face, I promise to stand with you, believe in you, and love you completely for all the days of my life.

The Rings
These rings, rumored to have been forged under Count Dooku’s watchful eye, are made of beskar.
No blade. No battle. No betrayal could ever break them.
They are visible signs of an invisible promise…a promise of unity, loyalty, and shared destiny.
As you exchange these rings, you declare to the galaxy that you are no longer two forces moving separately, but one balanced alliance. Search your feelings… you know it to be true.
