Stargate fans, we've got your dream ceremony backdrop. We spied this masterfully crafted Stargate altar built by groom Ian Milward for his sci-fi wedding. The ring itself is 12 feet in diameter and looks even more rad lit up with LEDs. The Stargate ceremony backdrop was made by Ian and his partner who met at a hardware store and bonded over their love of sci-fi.

Let's take a peek at the nighttime detail shot and hear the back story:

"[Ian and his partner] first met working at the same lumber and hardware store, and connected because of a mutual love of Stargate. About a year into their relationship, they were watching the episode where Jack and Sam get married in front of a gate, and she said that would be pretty awesome, so six years later he remembered that and did it."

Hell yes! This is commitment to amazingly crafted wedding DIY.

Will you be sharing this with any fellow Stargate fans?
