LOL that's horrible.
The cake top is pretty neat for what it is, though.
That's really sad :P
best thread ive read today LOL
lmao! that cant be for real? Any idea how old they r?
That guy actually looks about 30 in his picture.
omg the top of that cake is amazing :P
I lolled at that.
I dont think it's sad I think it's quite cute.
i guess people fall in love in different ways...
Actully you can fall in love anywhere.
Ive been with my girlfriend for about 11 months now i think i met her in a random room we e dated on a year ago and met 11 months ago so yeah u can find love anywhere.
I dont mind that they met on habo but i find it kinda weird that they themed their wedding on it. Afterall it's just an online thing
LOL HILARIOUS
LOL
Wasn't "Jay" the staff member going out with someone in it?
Jay went out with Hippy but they were married irl.
Congratulations.
I don't think it is sad one bit. Many couples when they get married or anniversary think back to where they met. in this case it was Habbo Hotel, And well the cake is amazing it is them when they first met for the first time Virtually.
Once again Congratulations to the Happy couple.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW Thats well cute LOL. xD
It's not sad... My parents met in a supermarket, and I know someone that proposed in homebase... :rolleyes:
Love isn't sad...
Its not that sad... Congrats! But I Think the invo's are abit OTT.
AND THEY CALLED IT PIXEL LOOOOVEEEE
Lol?
The wedding cake top thingy bob is quite cool. But sad.
lol nice one, cuteee. I don't really find it strange anyway, some people do meet there, after all Habbo is a social networking website.
Indeed that cake topper is a work of art.
This is awesome lol!
THAT CAKE IS SO DETAILED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's not sad that they met on Habbo but it is sad that they are making a big deal out of it.
Very interesting.
saaaaaad
*dies laughing
Awww, how cute!
this thread blatently seperates the mature people from the children.
I heard people gotmarried that met on secondlife too
Sadddd ;o
After viewing the traffic my flickr photo stream was getting from this site, I thought I'd follow the referral link to figure out what gives.
Imagine my surprise when I found a whole thread about our wedding on here!
Even more surprising was the variety of responses on the thread- from the supporters to the "sassdddds". I really couldn't believe that we had sparked even this much commentary.
In the interest of fostering online community, I thought I come in here and give some background.
Back in the early part of 2001, Sulake had just launched their first English language Habbo server. As a Web application developer and owner of my own business, I was always trying out new interactive applications online- especially those in the then-fledgling social networking genre.
Habbo wasn't quite a game, wasn't quite a full chat room, but was something inbetween, presented with a cute pixel presentation.
I went in one night with some developer friends when one had started up a conversation with my future wife. Turns out we were both developers and content producers interested in the same interactive environments.
Back then, Habbo was a pretty quiet place. It was mostly designers and Web mavens trying out something new; not the pre-teen Mecca it has become today.
After a couple of hours, we ended up talking in the cafe one on one. The following night, we actually began communicating through MSN. After that, many e-mails and then many more phone calls. A year later, she moved to Vancouver, Canada from Anchorage, Alaska so we could be together.
In 2007, we were married.
I'll be honest: I don't think we once went back to Habbo together after that first night. We had each checked it out over the years individually to catch all the amazing developments and wonder at its popularity. Over the last few years, we've mostly played WoW online >grin<.
So why the Habbo hotel theme? We love pixel art. We're old enough to remember when those blocky bits were the standard in computer animated expression. We were married in Toronto's Drake Hotel, a very cool boutique venue with a vibrant music and art focus.
I haven't posted any photos from our wedding yet. I had a bit of digital photo crisis that's taken me some months to get over (read: I lost a ton). I'm looking forward to doing so you guys can see that Habbo and its imagery was used as starting point for our theme; a representation of some of our interests in interactive experiences and retro computer art.
As my wife and I are avid Flickr-ites, we used Moo cards to tell the story, as well, to show a narrative using Habbo assets. My background as a graphic designer came into play as I assembled these images from screenshots, as well as crafted my own pixel structures and elements to match the decor of the Drake.
Rest assured Habbo commentators, I didn't wear a plastic Fisherprice-esque hairpiece for our Big Day. Nor did we dance repetitive with canned animation. And while our animator friend produced that amazing cake-topper you see from our Habbo-selves, I assure you the cupcakes we indulged in were very real.
All in all, it was a fabulous event with tremendous warmth from friends and family.
So, hopefully this explains the inspiration for our wedding imagery and why we did it. Maybe this will give you some ideas for how to find inspiration for your own wedding day. At the very least, maybe we'll see a bit more activity on this thread! ;)
It's happened a load of times on secondlife, you have to think though secondlife is used by people 18-60 odd.
second life also has real life business where as habbo is a basic chat room used by teens so the likeliness of marriage is really low.

i find it so cute how love can be found in strange places, and it just goes to show that love really is stronger than anything else in this world. hfabulous, hope you had a great wedding. :]
Actually, I bought that tie for someone I work with for their birthday! It's awesome!
*hiss curse hiss curse*
i want that tie.
hfabulous, there was something terribly endearing about your story, I loved it.
Here's two questions...
Was it an expensive wedding and did the whole habbo theme evoke a lot of questions from guests?
why do you think this is a joke? you think its funny but considering your a hypocrit you cannot really talk..Quote:
