We've all heard about fairytale weddings, but this one definitely takes the cake. Hospice nurse Christine England, 40, married Keith Green, 44, in full Shrek and Princess Fiona costumes and make-up in front of 100 guests. The guests were also in costumes and fancy attire.
"The idea just came to me," says Christina. "I knew what we would go as because Keith looks just like Shrek." She tried to get her 18-year-old son to dress up as Donkey, another character from the film, but said "he wasn't having any of it." Her fiancé had no problem with the idea. "'It was a very strange experience to say the least, but a thoroughly enjoyable one. We love the films and my wife tells me I bear a resemblance to Shrek."
Christine's mother, Annette England, said: "It's not necessarily how you imagine seeing your daughter get married but it was great fun."
What we want to know: Wasn't there anyone who told this woman she was totally nuts? That perhaps she wouldn't want to spend her wedding day (and perhaps even her honeymoon) in full green makeup?
I've heard of Hawaiian weddings, butterfly themes, or even old Hollywood, but this is most likely the first and only couple to be married in a Shrek ceremony. Points for originality… we guess.
Would you ever have an outrageous theme wedding? What would you do if your friend told you she was having a Shrek wedding? Would you try and talk her out of it, or would you keep your mouth shut and pick out a costume? [Daily Mail]
