Lake Natoma Inn

Photographer's real-wedding feature documents a Star Wars wedding with lightsaber cake cutting.

Lake Natoma Inn overlooks the water in historic Folsom, California, and a photographer's real-wedding feature captured a full Star Wars celebration here, right down to a lightsaber cake cutting and a mac-and-cheese bar. The inn's waterfront ceremony lawn, shown set with chairs and a floral arch, gives the theme a scenic, relaxed backdrop, while indoor ballrooms handle the reception. It suits couples who want a lakeside wedding with playful fandom moments rather than a fully costumed affair. The documented wedding was the couple's own creation and no dedicated Star Wars package is verified, so confirm decor, photography and catering flexibility with the inn. Practical notes: the inn offers ceremony lawns, ballrooms and guest rooms in one lakeside property, which simplifies logistics for a themed weekend, and Folsom's historic district is minutes away for photos. Ask about lakeside ceremony timing, the ballroom's lighting options for themed receptions, and whether outside specialty vendors such as themed bakers are welcome.
