STAR WARS Dancing Characters Needed for Reception!??! Fort Worth, TX

Victoria, on October 13, 2017 at 9:59 AM Posted in Planning 0 7

Nerds please hither Smiley smile So, I am the big dork and my soon to be husband is a HUGE NERD!!!

I am wanting to SURPRISE my sweet nerd at our wedding reception with his favorite Star Wars characters as a gift. This surprise would truly make him cry on so many man-levels! (I surprised him @ event- pic below, yes he cried w/excitement)

No, this isn't a Star Wars wedding (its rustic/chic-backyard wedding). But, throwing in something nerdy for my man on a frilly/girly day would take his breath away-literally.. He would probably pass out and this is my life goal!

I would love to hire 2 Storm Troopers & Darth Vader if the price is reasonable for 3 characters. (Under $400??). 1 hour? I would love for them to dance with us to get the party started/take pictures with.

Does anyone recommend a vendor personally for Star Wars Characters/Cosplay that can help make this happen? I even went as far as reaching out to 501stLegion/Rebel Legion-but, they are for charity. Suggestions needed TIA

    I feel like this is probably a rehearsal dinner type thing rather than a wedding thing- but to each their own.

    I can tell you as a professional performer- my rate for a wedding starts at 350 for a set- for just me. For THREE people- you're probably looking around 500-900$ depending on quality and what you get.

    Try contacting your local 501st Legion. They have professional costume ready and perform at events. I know they do a lot of charity events, but may be for hire for other events.

    I love Star Wars and think this is an awesome idea!

    The 501st Legion is who you want. Check out the North Texas Squad of the Star Garrison. Best wishes!

    Contact FWSO -- they have Star Wars characters at concerts in the garden every year. See who they contract with!

    Check out the 501st. Due to being an officially licensed Lucasfilm group, they don't accept cash. However, they may work for cake. Smiley tongue (Also, you may donate money to the charity of their choice.)

    Other groups are The Rebel Legion (the good guys), The Mandalorian Mercs (Bounty Hunters), and the R2 Builders Club (which are the droids such as R2D2.)

    Fair warning though, no good Star Wars costumer worth their salt will accept payment (other than donations to charity). Its the fastest way to receive a cease and desist from Lucasfilm!
