It’s wedding season! And for those of us who are not the bride or groom, there’s usually nothing better to do at a wedding besides eat cake. For those of you who are the bride or groom, one of the best things about wedding planning is getting to taste the cake! So let us all eat cake and continue on with this list of cute, geeky wedding cakes for the geeks getting ready to tie the knot.

Doctor Who Wedding Cake

Elegant, classy, and no one will know it’s Doctor Who until they look at the cake topper! This cake is perfect for those who are looking for a more subtle way to show off their geekiness.

Lego Wedding Cake

I love this cake, because it’s such an easy idea to recreate without the help of a professional cake artist. All you need is a set of legos and an imagination, and you can create the lego-inspired cake of your dreams.

My Neighbor Totoro Wedding Cake

The cake itself is my favorite on this list. Without the Totoro topper, it would just be a darling cake, and with the topper, it’s even cuter! Those pink flowers and the brilliant detailing on the tree trunk are just gorgeous.

The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker Wedding Cake

The powder blue color and the Zelda triforce symbol, as well as the cloud-like frosting makes for a delicious looking themed wedding cake! I also appreciate the touch of Harry Potter and Star Wars with their symbols making appearances on the cake as well. What a great way to show off your love of multiple franchises!

Superhero Wedding Cake

There’s something about the color white. It makes everything look beautiful and wedding-ready, but the superhero touch gives this otherwise typical pretty cake a splash of uniqueness. We all want to be unique on our wedding day right?

Portal Wedding Cake

Oh my goodness, I can’t get over the cake topper! The turrets are so adorable in their little wedding get-ups. Look at the veil and bowtie! Not to mention the companion cube sitting atop the fluffy white cake. I’m in love with this cake.

Mario Kart Wedding Cake

Maybe at first glance this cake looks more like a birthday cake with all of its bright colors, but it’s so much fun! Mario and Peach top the cake with a pair of hearts and somehow it’s such a romantic scene, even if they’re fictional characters. I love all the added detail here as well, like the race track and coins.

Lord of the Rings Wedding Cake

This unique cake gives me nature vibes. That wood cake stand, those edible frosting roses, and the color of the cake all make this cake right at home in a forest setting. I love the Lord of the Rings inscription, taken straight from the One Ring itself. Is that Arwen and Aragorn standing on top of the cake? It’s beautiful.

Harry Potter Wedding Cake

Another classic white cake, with a geek’s touch! The golden snitches and the stylized “Always,” turn it into a Harry Potter fan’s dream. The swirly designs are magical as well, fitting right in with the Harry Potter theme as well as simply adding beauty to the whole aesthetic.

Star Wars Wedding Cake

Who’s up for a slice of the Death Star? This cake is so out of this world that it doesn’t even look like a real cake! I bet it tastes delicious though, and who wouldn’t want to take a chunk out of this evil ship? That stormtrooper bride is hilarious as well.

Batman and Wonder Woman Wedding Cake

This is probably one of the most simple ideas to emulate on the list. Take your traditional looking wedding cake and just add a pair of your favorite action figures to the top of it to turn it into a geeky cake. The person who made this cake chose to add Wonder Woman and Batman — they’d make a good fanfiction pair. (Ahem, not that I write fanfiction.)

Pokemon Wedding Cake

Image via: Pinterest
Another traditional cake, with the added touch of a couple of classic cute Pokemon characters. A casual wedding guest might be unaware that this is a Pokemon cake unless iconic characters such as Pokemon or Squirtle are included, but I think this cake is perfect for those who want to show their love of Pokemon without Pokemon being the main focus.

Disney Castle Wedding Cake

Why not celebrate the happiest place on Earth while at the celebration of your happiest day on Earth? This cake is a replica of the Disney Land castle, and it’s absolutely magical! I love the inclusion of icicles, perfect for making this a winter wedding cake.

Mass Effect Wedding Cake

Holly Conrad (famous cosplayer and artist) and Ross O’ Donovan (member of Youtube’s Game Grumps) — otherwise known as geek royalty — had a space themed wedding a few years back. Their wedding cake was Mass Effect’s Normandy, and it was absolutely fabulous. #Weddinggoals.

Did you fall in love with any of these cakes? I fell in love with all of them!

Two-Faced Dalek Wedding Cake

This Dalek cake is like a Doctor Who mullet, business in front, party in back. Or is it the opposite here? The cake features a Dalek on the front half, and on back it is a traditional wedding cake. It was baked and decorated by the folks at Wellingborough, United Kingdom based Amelia Rose Cake Studio.


It probably represents the bride and the groom, because the wife can be a real Dalek. Know what I mean? Nah. I kid. It represents the two stages of marriage: Happiness, then extermination. Nah. I kid. I kid. I love marriage.


Seriously, this is an awesome Doctor Who wedding cake that incorporates the best of both worlds, both geeky and traditional.

Disgusting Zombie Cake: The Wedding Dead

Hopefully this zombie wedding cake tastes better than it looks, because it looks pretty disgusting. Normally wedding cakes are created to be beautiful and tasteful. This does not look beautiful, tasteful or tasty. It looks like some bakery got infected with a zombie virus and the cakes were not immune.

This is the perfect cake if you want people to fear your marriage. It was created by Cake Cove bakery for their Zombie Horde event in Toronto, Canada. This is a cake you would never forget taking a bite out of. The only way it could get better would be if a zombie actually burst out from within and started attacking guests.

That would be a wedding no one would ever forget. It would probably leave you a traumatized wreck of your former self. A cake wreck if you will.

This Wedding Cake Is a Geek Explosion

We’ve seen our share of geeky wedding cakes here at Technabob. Usually they stick to one of the couple’s favorite geek interests. Maybe two if they can’t decide. But what do you do if you love all of the things? You make a cake like this.

geek_cake_1zoom in


This wedding cake from Divine Cakes is positively exploding with multiple geek themes. It can’t contain them all, so it splits open to show a variety of cool things. Batman is here, as well as Doctor Who, Star Trek, Star Wars, and Firefly. I’m not really sure about the rest.

When you can’t make up your mind, just throw it all in your cake. Enjoy it while it lasts, because it’s all gonna get eaten in the end anyway.

Two-Faced Wedding Cake Is the Ultimate Compromise

So what do you do when you get married and your wife wants a traditional cake, while you want to geek out and have a superhero cake? Compromise is the cornerstone of every good marriage, so why not make your first big trade-off the cake?

superhero_cake_1zoom in


Both the bride and the groom can be happy with this cake, which is half traditional white wedding cake, and half awesome geek superhero cake tower. This is how you start a marriage right, and set out on a life where you both will be happy. Good for them for not denying each other’s passions.

It does make me wonder what their house is going to look like? How far will the compromises go?

This LEGO Block Wedding Cake Is Still Under Construction

This wedding cake was created by Cupcakes by SJ for a cousin’s wedding day. The interesting thing about this cake is that it will never be complete. I mean, because it looks like it’s under construction. However, it will be finished. It’s probably long gone already. But I would have finished it much faster. I can’t resist a LEGO cake.

lego_wedding_cake_1zoom in


This cake has a LEGO minifig bride and groom on top and the best part is that it gives the impression that it is being built by LEGO construction workers or chefs, right before your eyes. Now this is the proper way to start a marriage folks. This says love.

Hey, you give me LEGO and cake, you have my attention, you give me a LEGO cake and you have me for life.

NES Wedding Cake: Nuptial Edible System

Australian cake shop Cara Mia Cake made this realistic life-size NES cake for Vanessa and Chris Harding’s wedding. Instead of plastic and metal the chocolate cake is “filled with a cookies and cream white chocolate ganache.”

According to the Herald Sun, the cake looked so realistic the newlywed’s guests could barely believe it wasn’t an actual console. Vanessa also told the paper that gaming on Nintendo’s system was one of their first common hobbies, and that she still has the NES she got when she was a kid.

Congrats Vanessa and Chris! Head to Cara Mia Cake’s Facebook page to see more of their cakes.

Severed Heads Cake: Till Death Do us Part

Man, this couple really takes the whole “till death do us part” thing seriously. This great wedding cake has both the bride and the groom decapitated. Well, two heads are better than one, even on a cake.

This is either very romantic or very disgusting depending on your perspective. Yes this was actually a wedding cake and the bride and groom held their wedding at one of Austin’s Alamo Drafthouse cinemas, which seems appropriate.

I really thought that this was how Dexter was going to end, with a grand wedding and two decapitations. See what you missed out on Showtime? This could have been your haunting final scene. Oh well, in my mind that’s how it ended.

The Hobbit Wedding Cake Looks Delicious

Ah, love is a beautiful thing, particularly when it serves as an excuse to expose our geekier side in places where we usually wouldn’t be allowed to. “Hey, mom, it’s my wedding, not yours!”

The team at Tiffany’s Baking Company know what they’re doing: they combined a bunch of cool looking ...
