Apple Fancouple Get Married at Apple Store

by - source: Tom's Hardware US

Scary.

I know that I should be saying, "Each to their own!" but I just can't wrap my head around the fact that this couple are so in love with Apple that they needed to get married at the New York Apple store.

This Apple store wedding was apparently unauthorized; the couple didn't ask could they do it, they just showed up with a minister in tow at 12:01am on Valentine's Day. The ceremony proceeded undisturbed in that the staff didn't interrupt, but there were plenty of plenty of shoppers with video cameras cheering them on.

According to the video, they had their dog there as a ringbearer but he got a little rowdy. The jumpy canine made for some pretty shaky camera work but it you have any desire to see the two getting hitched, check the video below.

Interestingly, this isn't the first time we've written about a couple getting married at an electronics store. Last year, a couple got married in the queue outside Best Buy on Black Friday. They had met for the first time in the same queue the year before so they felt it was only fitting to tie the knot in the same location.

Maybe a liiitle overboard on the brand loyalty, but I suppose it'll make a good story for years to come.

Ha what's ironic is that this couple probably saved a TON of money by having their wedding at this Apple store...

The ceremony usually isn't the expensive part, unless you go hog wild on flowers. If they managed to have their reception at the Apple store too, they would have saved enough to buy themselves a pair of MacBook Pro's, two Iphone 3GSs, and enough Itunes credits to stock an indie radio station for a decade.

I'd rather get married at the Grand Floridian in Disney World with the Magic Kingdom's castle as a backdrop (preferably at night with the castle lit up in ice blue like this image http://kingdommagicblog.com/wp-con [...] 0-jpeg.png ) .

The best buy wedding at least made a little sense - it's the spot they met. A halo themed wedding for the couple who met duking it out on xbox live makes sense as well.

This is a bit strange, though.

Personally I wouldn't have one of the most memorable moments of a lifetime at an electronics retail store.

Not worse than virtual marriage in mmorpg.
Bad camera job, btw.

Is the officiant reading from an iPhone?!?! And did I hear "Steve Jobs once said, and I quote" in the audio?!?!? Good God, people. Fanaticism doesn't begin to describe it.

Edit: And the officiant wearing jeans and a black turtle neck was not lost on me either.

Cheap and brainless fiancée (if this is not another hidden SPAM from the Apple Harassing Marketing Bureau).

Big Brother is washing your brain, IZombie.

-But you can only marry the brides approved by apple.

-If the wife gets angry, you should reboot in text mode screen and run a file system check.

-You can't see the brides face. She is covered with a reflective glossy skin (but you can fix your hair looking at it).
If you pay an extra U$S 50, the glossy is covered with an unglossing layer, (Disclaim: the bride may not look like the one in the photo).

-The bride looks shiny, and lightweight but standard holes are forbidden/not included.

-You can't do anything fun in bed, but test Photoshop.

-You tell anybody that the apple store is a Ferrari.

-The priest repeats 50 times:"You don't need freedom. Freedom is evil"

-You need to repeat 100 times "I no more need freedom, whatever thing is that".

joebob2000 :
It was on Valentine's day AND they weren't fugly. The best buy duo has NOTHING on these two. Not that I like Apple, but this I can't complain about. Congrats!



Seriously guys? Are you so lame that you thumbs down this guy for making a half-positive comment about Apple? Pathetic.
