I saw this on another forum, and had to share it here:
This is an actual, real wedding ceremony, done while the couple and their guests were in Miami on their way to WrestleMania. It is also completely awesome, and makes me totally jealous that I could never have a wedding 1/100th as great. Congrats to the happy couple!

Heh, I got so annoyed this year about Mania being in Florida, because the combination of Mania and Disney is something that I've long though would be perfect for my man and I tying the knot and any wedding is likely a few years off yet!
Good for them, the Yes chants were adorable!

having hints of your passion at your wedding is cool, but something like this really cheapens the ceremony x

having hints of your passion at your wedding is cool, but something like this really cheapens the ceremony x This cheapens the ceremony? Unlike having a wedding in a church because it's pretty and the done thing, not because you have any religious beliefs? Unlike having to invite people you hate just because it's expected? Unlike having to have a diamond engagement ring because it's tradition even though it's a marketing gimmick of the diamond industry? Unlike having to wear a white dress because everyone expects it even though you look crap in the colour and you're not a virgin? Unlike getting thousands of pounds into debt because if you don't have the church, castle, open bar, band, designer outfit, six bridesmaids and 200 guests it's not a real wedding? Sod that, a wedding is about the union of two people in love. Everything else is just a garnish. |

My mom and stepdad got married in plain clothes with no guests in front of the Justice of the Peace downtown, on my mom's lunch hour to boot, and I don't think the ceremony was "cheapened" in any way because they loved each other unconditionally until the day he died (and she still and will always love him unconditionally). Being in love is all that matters, you can celebrate it however you want. |

Yeah, I've always said that I'd do whatever the chick wants cause I dont care much for religion and all that stuff, but if we both are non believers, to me a church ceremony is kind of stupid unless we were doing it to be ironic. |

You know, I like wrestling as much as the next guy but ... that's just really tacky. Not for me.
The "Yes!" chants were funny, mind.

I don't know, it looks cool, but something about it is....off I guess lol. I don't like any themed weddings, most are already awful enough.

I didn't watch the clip yet, but the only thing I'd imagine that could cheapen a wrestling-themed wedding is if a Jimmy Hart produced knockoff of "Here Comes the Bride" was the processional theme.

These "wrestling fans" should be ashamed of themselves with the lack of run-ins and shenanigans. I mean come on, have they ever even SEEN how weddings play out in wrestling?
For all the money they saved by doing it this way, they DEFINITELY could've at least afforded Charles Wright. Come on now.

The yes chants remind me of a Marriage proposal at our Pokemon regional event a few weeks ago. I got the whole crowd to chant yes with me. funny thing was that only one other person there got the DB reference.
Congrats to this couple as well! I wish them nothing but pure Mania.
And bedroom legdrops.

May be a little late, but just came across this thread. My wife and I were the ones that got married, and are amazed how many people saw it so far. Love everyone's comments, good and bad (we prefer the heel comments haha). That is what wrestling is about!!! Wish youtube wouldn't have pulled the full vid...we did entrances, I actually gave my vows, or pipebombs, sitting indian-style much to the surprise of my wife. We did the ceremony at Mania for many reasons. The main one is we found out, the night of WM25 while I was in Houston for the event, we were going to be parents. Really meant a lot to us to bring the the two most important moments in our lives full circle. April Fool's Day was a nice touch, too. We meet up with the same group from around the world every year at Mania, and dress the part, only fitting we wed the same way. Here's a link of pics on of my best men put online in case anyone was interested. www.flickr.com/photos/mbwebdesign/sets/72157629906631329/We didn't have any interruptions, but we did leave cryptic messages to our friends and family for months leading up to the event (only a few friends and family members knew we were doing this...an April Fool's surprise, if you will). Do the cryptic messages make it a little more wrestling? Should also mention it was my wife's idea. One word....YES! |

Amazing work.
