A World of Warcraft wedding is one way to make sure no other wedding will be like yours.
A Taiwanese couple decided for their special day they would have a gamer-inspired celebration, and even wore costumes to bring the 2D game to reality. The groom decided to dress up as King Varian Wrynn who is a tough leader in the game series. The stunning bride opted to wear the costume designed for Tyrande Whisperwind in the game so that she could still look like a beautiful bride as she said her vows.
The couple had a two day celebration, an engagement party and the actual wedding. To fully embody a World of Warcraft wedding, the duo took pictures outdoors to look as though they were in the game's setting.
