I used to think I wanted a Sony AIBO to be my ring bearer for my wedding (whenever it is that I'm finally ready to get married. Hey, every girl dreams of their wedding from an early age). I now have a very cute first cousin once removed, but I still like the idea of a robot-themed wedding. Here are ways to involve robots into different parts of your wedding.
- The Wedding Official
- You can start off with a robotic wedding official, as one couple in Korea did.

- The Bartender
- At the cocktail hour between the ceremony and the reception, a RC Beer Cooler Robot can serve as your bartender.

- The Chef
- Next, you can have a robotic chef prepare the reception dinner.
- The Band
- Instead of a band, you can use this amazing eletromagnetic music machine. It uses ping-pong balls and wine glasses played by a robotic cannon and little robotic fingers.
- The Wedding Cake
- There are plenty of creative wedding cakes you can get. Here I have pictured a gaming cake (okay not a robot but still neat), a his-and-her TiVo cake, and an R2-D2 cake.



- The Wedding Favors
- Finally, at the end of the wedding, the guests can take home these robotic USB thumbdrives. You can imprint them with your names and the wedding date, for them to remember the momentous occasion.

Since I included the R2-D2 from Star Wars, I thought I'd also point out a Star Wars themed wedding I read about. The wedding was planned to be on May 4th, so the invitations could read "May the 4th be with you." As horribly geeky as that may be, you have to give them credit for being creative.

In early 2005 I have participated on a wedding in Australia where the rings were carried by a properly "dressed up" Pioneer P3-DX. The robot was remotely controlled though.
Jenny,
For my wedding, I had LEGO robots on part of the cake,
and a full fledged robot groom's cake.
Though, the best part was certainly the bride!
For our wedding in 1999, we used one of my snake robots S3 as the ring bearer. It nearly made it all the way but flipped over near the alter due to a collision with a chair.
