Quantcast



You might have heard of that little game called Halo (or as some of us fondly call it around here, "teh Haloz"), but you know that you have to really be passionate about  a game to theme your entire wedding on it. Desirai Labrada and John Henry did just that, which you can check out above in our Halo Wedding vid (made by the rather excellent R3Y).

I can't help but wonder how confusing it must be for some moms and dads to attend their children's game-themed weddings -- my mom would be cool with it, for example, but it certainly summons up images of histronic parental units unable to understand what it's all about. I mean, my mom won't know the significance when she sees that my wedding cake is a three-dimensional miniature recreation of Midgar, but she'll think it looks cool anyway.

Well, i don't think I could go for a wedding like that for myself, but good for them!

Let's hope all that t-bagging doesn't end in divorce?

You gotta make your wedding about you as much as possible. Its way easy to have your special day hijacked. :D

...that my wedding cake is a three-dimensional miniature recreation of Midgar...

Colette I think I just fell in love.

*slaps himself*

ANYWAYS... This wedding wasnt as cheesy as I was expecting it to be. It kept alot of traditional wedding themes and formalities with it, and at least the bride wasnt in a blue dress with a groom in a red suit.
