In keeping with today's gamer wedding theme, may I present to you the Katamari Damacy wedding of Aidra and Ernest. (All credits for photography go to Idaho wedding photographer Kristin Shultz.)

These two were married in Idaho a few weeks ago, and clearly … the whole wedding party got in on the theme:

PS: Many thanks to Adria & Ernest's friend Shiloh for sending this to me.

holy guacamole, this was in BUHL? that's like miles from me, and possibly one of the least interesting places in Idaho, which is saying a lot. I'm massively impressed that these guys found each other and had a wedding like this in southern Idaho!

I love this wedding. SO. HARD. We actually used that particular xkcd for one of our centerpieces, but the majority of our gaming references were from Portal (the cake and the companion cube, namely). But this… this is art. And Katamari fits so well with a cheery summer day, too! Awesomecakes!
