A Marvel-obsessed couple had a superhero themed wedding - with the bride even walking down the aisle to the Iron Man theme tune.
Jessica Spencer, 34, and her partner, Brandon, 31, tied the knot in front of 75 family and friends - five years after meeting at a Halloween party where she was dressed as the Black Widow.
The couple spent £23k on their big day with their flowers made of comic book paper and their cake featuring the emblems of all their favourite superheroes.
Each bridesmaid and groomsman represented a different character - and their best man, Shane Witt, 31, even had a prop Thor hammer.
Brandon proposed to Jessica at Disney world Florida, Orlando, US, in November 2021, after hiding the ring encased in an Iron Man arc reactor model - which powers Iron Man's suit in the films.
Jessica, a lead analyst for a bank, from Middletown, Delaware, US, said: "I've loved Marvel since I was 19.
"I was watching every film as they came out.
"We wanted our guests to be dressed for a wedding but incorporate Marvel where they could.
"There were lots of Marvel ties and socks.
"It was such a special day."
The couple met properly in October 2018 at a Halloween party - but had worked together at the same bank for a few years, only seeing each other "in passing".
Jessica said: "After Brandon saw me dressed as the Black Widow, he friend requested me on Facebook.
"We hung out for a while and made it official in January 2019.
"We were in Disney World Florida in November 2021, and it was all decked out for Christmas.
"Brandon said he was looking for the best Christmas tree and said he'd found it at the Wilderness Lodge Hotel.
"He convinced me to go there, and his friend who'd flown out the day before had put an arc reactor in the tree, where Brandon proposed.
"The engagement ring itself was a pretty standard ring, but my wedding band has 'I love you 3000' engraved on it as a nod to Iron Man.
"I'm not a big party kind of person and I'd been married before but had no control over it as I was so young.
"Brandon had not been married before and I knew he wanted an actual wedding, so I just said what if we did something really fun like a Marvel-themed wedding.
"He wanted to know what that would look like, and he got on board pretty quickly."
Jessica was thrown a Marvel-themed bridal shower - and wore an Iron Man dress and had superhero-themed buffet food.
The couple's stag and hen do were not themed, but Jessica's bridesmaids did give her a sash to wear on the day with an arc reactor embroidered on it.
The wedding, held at the Hilton Christiana Hotel, Delaware, US, April 14, 2023, was organised to fit the couple's creative vision, from the tableware down to the music at the ceremony.
"We had paper flowers made from comics that were tinted in all the bouquets," Jessica explained.
