Cereal Bar

Is your idea of a sugar overload the kind you get from your daily bowl (or five) of cereal? Instead of a dessert bar, stock your wedding with a cereal bar with each one named after various superheroes.

In honor of the upcoming box-office-busters, The Amazing Spider-Man (in theaters today!), The Dark Knight Rises (coming out July 20th) and of course, Comic-Con International (from July 12-15th), we put together a round-up of the coolest comic- and superhero-inspired wedding ideas. And trust us, you don’t have to be a comic-book-reading guy (or girl!) to enjoy these clever day-of details.
