LOL I'm assuming FH is a star wars fanatic?

You can rent the costume and have one of your friends or hire someone to dress up in it and have them do what you want.

I found this one to rent for $350. Might be expensive for what you want to spend but here is the link

Actually, if you go to youTube you can see how people used stormtroopers in their weddings, lol. Type 'Stormtrooper wedding'

Let me know what you come up with, FH begged to walk into our reception to the Star wars theme (I vetoed)

advertise on craigslist! there might be a star wars fanatic who already has a costume who would do it for you

omg that's great! FH call's me his Storm Trooper when I clop down the hardwood stairs fast and furious in heels or boots before leaving the house:)

I'd look up Trekkie type convention sites, or maybe collector sites online and see if you can post there! craigslist is a good one too, though god knows who you might attract. Good luck!
