16•09•2017 La sposa con le #vans 🤘🏻💍👟👰🏻 l'ho fatto anch'io. Nessuno ci credeva, io ero la prima, ma l'#amore è la soluzione e insieme l'abbiamo trovata. Con tutti i cazzi da capare che ci sono caduti addosso e l'universo intero che ci remava contro, ci siamo comunque arrivati e ci siamo un sacco divertiti. Tolte le stecche di balena del corpetto che mi hanno impedito di reapirare come un normale essere umano e di mangiare o bere qualunque cosa 👍🏻 Ma vedersi così fregna per un giorno nella vita non ha prezzo 💁🏻 Mai fermarsi davanti a niente quando sai che hai incontrato la persona giusta. Mai. Adesso non c'è niente di diverso da prima, a parte le implicazioni legali 👌🏻daje! Grazie a TUTTI quelli che sono venuti a darci il loro amore, siete splendidi e noi vi amiamo abbestia. (Grazie per la foto ❤️) #love #wedding #weddingday #weddinggown #weddingparty #weddinginvans #ilovevans #bride #nerdbride #brideinvans #brideinglasses #lovelyday #iloveyouall #friendship #family #party #beautifulday (presso Locanda dei Ciocca)

This week on the Temple of Geek Podcast, our host Monica, speaks to Amanda Hunt, the owner of Lorien Bridal Boutique. If you’re a geeky bride who is looking for a shopping experience that speaks to your geek heart, Lorien Bridal is the place for you!
Amanda Hunt- Owner of Lorien Bridal Boutique
The Temple of Geek Podcast has been around since 2012 and is hosted by a variety of geeks. Here we cover all manner of geek and pop culture news and events.
You can listen to the Temple of Geek Podcast directly on this page or stream it on Apple Podcasts / Google Podcast / iHeart Radio / Stitcher Spotify and where ever else you stream your podcast.
A Dream Come True For a Geeky Bride
Lorien Bridal Boutique in Glendale, CA
Despite geek culture becoming more and more mainstream in the last few years, there’s never enough spaces for geeks to feel like they can be unconditionally themselves. Amanda has created a magical and whimsical safe space for geeky brides to feel understood and accepted. She has done this while also creating an environment that isn’t overwhelmingly geeky.
Lorien Bridal Boutique
It’s a place that traditional non-geek brides may enter and still find lovely. It’s also a place where family members (cough cough mother-of-the-bride) won’t feel overwhelmed by the geek culture. The nods to fandoms are subtle but obvious enough that a geeky bride will feel at home.
Lord of The Rings Inspired Dressing Area
Walking into Lorien Bridal is like walking around an enchanted forest. Each area is inspired by a different mythical forest. There are plenty of nods to Lord of the Rings. As you walk into the shop a floor mat that reads “Speak Friend and Enter” greets you. The cardholder at the register is Tree Beard and even the name of the boutique is inspired by Lord of The Rings culture.

Harry Potter Inspired Dressing Area
The Gown Chooses the Bride! This Harry Potter inspired area has a rabbit Patronus, wands, owls, and trunks. There are even nods to Snape and Lily. The gorgeous Hogwarts inspired mirror is breathtaking. Can you just imagine standing in front of that mirror in your dream wedding gown? I hope you bring a lot of tissues with you!

Disney Inspired Dressing Area
Are you going for that Disney Princess vibe? Well, this dressing area will make you feel like Royalty! The love for gowns, Disney, and dreams coming true is too real! There is a feeling of whimsy present throughout the shop, but this corner is absolutely magical!

Star Wars Dressing Area
The Force is Strong with this bridal boutique. In what is arguably the most obviously geek corner of the store, Lorien Bridal welcomes you to an Endor inspired dressing area. We can not get over the lightsaber inspired hanging lights and the adorable pillows. I can’t imagine what more a geeky bride could want. Will you choose a dress from the dark or light side?

The British Invasion
As you open the front door, a Gallifreyan welcome sign by Adventures in Staceland is the first thing you see. To the rear of the store is a Doctor Who inspired Bathroom and a Sherlock Holmes inspired storage room. There is even a Game Of Thrones inspired door stop! Stop! You’re killing us with all the geek nods! But also, please don’t stop, we love it!

The Gowns
Lorien Bridal carries a variety of traditional brands in Bridal. You can come in and try on gowns by designers Maggie Sottero, Allure, and even the very whimsical Willowby by Watters. But what makes Lorian Bridal Boutique truly special is the exclusive dresses from Geek Couture designers Lynne Marie Martens of Classy Looking Nerf Herder and Nephi Garcia of Designer Daddy. These two geek couture designers are creating gowns that truly speak to your geek heart!

It’s Thursday. Missing Comic Con and the Her Universe Fashion Show like something fierce. Here’s a #tbt of my previous geek couture looks that walked the @heruniverse runway. Thank you @cornellable for always being by my side with this crazy journey 🥰 And here’s to hoping that we can return to crowds and hugs and that runway again! #heruniverse #hufs #heruniversefashionshow #geekcouture #enchantedrose #beautyandthebeast #fawkesthephoenix #tardis #doctorwho #geekfashion #classylookingnerfherder
