So I bought the MiniFigure Wedding Set for my girlfriend but I want to build it up some... but am not sure what to do... build a gazebo or maybe just a small cake to the side... that's why I am here asking my fellow AFOL's for some inspiration if any of you have seen something good or have made something yourself or just have a bunch of good ideas, I'd greatly appreciate it... pics are best other wise great detail please as I am still recovering from my dark ages (as of 01/12) here lol

    Gazebos like these found on Ebay, make for a nice simple piece for the wedding couple:

    this is a funny topic. My wife and I went to Hawaii to do our 12 year vow renewal. She got me the Lego wedding topper form the Lego store.

    I like all the suggestions for the gazebo thought... I was wondering if anyone had any other ideas on what to build around it (thinking some sore of simple stage). I did also get the valentine set for this year which was the the heart box 40029. I'm trying not to go over the top with a crowd of people sitting though... any ideas on a miniature cake for the figs? I do have a best man representative and maid of honor lol

    In the end I made this... a bit simpler than I had originally had thought of in my head but due to time/pieces constraint (had two research papers to write and starting new job). I made sure to add in a Maid of Honor and my best man who just got out of the navy, and a cake in the background (ps: it spins lol). But I am happy with it and maybe during my break next week I'll add on to it.

    You could add a preacher/justice of the peace.

    @AFFOL_Shellz_Bellz wow thats a great idea... can't believe I over looked that... now the hunt is on.... for a judge/priest minifigure something to fit the role, Thanks!

    What is the female minifig in that picture?

    Looks like Elizabeth from POTC. You could sub the new bride in there too - CMF Series 7. She has a crown and the flowers are a new style - easier to hold.

    ^^ maesterjay, that is TOO CUTE! I love it!
  • maesterjaymaesterjay Member Posts: 71
    That is correct on the minifigure that i used but i think @daddydeuce was asking about the bride in the flickr photo and not my photo. Will consider looking at the new bride though
  • prevereprevere Member Posts: 2,923
    Right. The body wear piece on the bride is custom I think. It's like a swirly red dress that is separate from the torso. Nice.
