Does the new Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice movie have you itching to get some comic book references into your wedding? We've pulled together the best ways to show who you're rooting for, below:

1. Superman Cuff Links

Is there no better inspiration than the Man of Steel himself? Take a piece of him with you down the aisle for a bit of extra courage when the nerves kick in.

2. Cake Topper

If you only want a small nod to your comic book hero, a wedding or groom's cake topper is the perfect solution. It can be popped in and out for your pictures and can be kept as a special keepsake for anniversary cakes to come.

If we could caption this photo, we bet they're saying, "Groomsmen: Unite!" If only those cufflinks came with superhero dancing skills, right?

Not only will you never have to worry about this paper bouquet wilting, but it can be preserved forever. Just make sure those pages you're ripping out aren't from a collectable.

7. Superhero Undershirts

This might be our favorite idea of all. You'll get a ridiculously fun photo op, and come the after party, the groomsmen can shed their dress shirts for a whole new "second look."
