Facebook fancy dress wedding

Facebook fancy dress wedding

After reporting possibly the first facebook status update at the alter last week , we thought it only right to tell you about a Facebook group setup to decide whether a couple get married in fancy dress or not.

The group was set up by Bec Miller who states “100,000 people join and Bam and I will have a fancy-dress wedding,” The Facebook group has already attracted around 900 members – and with your help, you can “vote” for their special fancy dress wedding.

Join the Facebook group

MS Miller started the group as it was her childhood dream to wear fairy wings as she walked down the aisle. Her original plan was to achieve a mere 1,000 members to the group but her fiancée deemed this too easy, especially as their achieved 700 members in under two weeks.

The Facebook group has even found Bec a “sponsor” in the form of costume shop, Escapage, who have offered the couple full clothing for the couple and their child Vitani.

The wedding is set for 1st April, so Bec has only a short period to find the necessary 100,000 Facebook group members – although the rumour is that Bec and Bam (?) have verbally agreed that 10,000 members could be a comprise.

Ms Miller invited everyone to join the group to help her wedding campaign, stating “the more the merrier” – So get yourself along and join the Facebook group today, and ensure the poor groom gets his fancy dress costume for his wedding day ! You can find the group here – 100 000 people join and bam and i will have a fancy-dress wedding.

Facebook Wedding Update

During the most romantic moment of his entire life, a groom decided to interrupt his wedding ceremony to update his Facebook status from his mobile phone.
As soon as the minister pronounce the couple man and wife, the groom whipped out his phone immediately to update his Facebook page AND Twitter.

The minister was in on the joke, and announced that the groom was busy updating his relationship status at the earliest opportunity, leaving the wedding guests in fits of laughter.

He also Tweeted: “Standing at the altar with TracyPage where just a second ago, she became my wife! Gotta go, time to kiss my bride.” Before doing so, he passed his new bride a phone for her to also update her Facebook status from “in a relationship” to “married”.

The un-named groom said on YouTube : “This was just done to be funny – we really don’t Facebook THAT often:).
“I have a lot of family scattered around the country and we all use Facebook a lot to keep in touch. So when Tracy and I were engaged, most of my family found out via Facebook because we updated our statuses.

If you can’t believe this would actually happen in the middle of someone’s wedding ceremony, here’s the clip for you to see :
