The Onion: Horrible Couple Really Wants Wedding to Reflect Their Personalities

Love this Onion article:
“We want to throw out all the wedding conventions that don’t scream ‘Jess and Ross,’” the utterly contemptible Black said Thursday, adding that the couple’s “uniqueness” will be mirrored in every aspect of the ceremony. “From the drinks served in mason jars, to the sparklers we’re handing out to everyone when it gets dark, this is going to be a wedding only we could have.”
“We want it to be a celebration of our love,” the unbearable woman continued. “But we also want it to be fun and quirky, just like us!”
The couple told reporters the insufferably precious ceremony will include readings from Walt Whitman’s Leaves Of Grass, a 10-minute silent meditation on each wedding guest’s own conception of love, and a forcibly lighthearted accordion wedding march expected to last for nearly 20 minutes.
The video is pretty great, too.

But how sad is is that I kind of want to have sparklers at the wedding?? Oh, Onion, how you shame me...

  1. You can totally have sparklers at your wedding without shame! It's not the actual choices that are being mocked; it's the attitude that choices about paper texture and color scheme prove that they're such a one-of-a-kind couple. ;)

  2. That is hilarious! I also say go ahead with the sparklers...or bubbles...or whatever strikes your fancy. Maybe skip the accordion music, though! :)
