Two players are living the dream of many fans of Dungeons & Dragons. The game not only brought them together, but it was also the centerpiece of their wedding.
What a special wedding it was! The DnD player and Reddit user Empty_House4074 (a Paladin himself) presents on Reddit a trailer for his wedding video after he and his wife got married.
However, it is not a typical wedding video, as it becomes clear within moments that it is at least as atypical a wedding.
Instead of a suit, the author of the post and groom is dressed in armor rather than a classic suit, and the bride’s jewelry is more striking and “elvish” than what one usually sees.
“Two days ago, my wife and I got married,” the player writes under his video on Reddit, “We celebrated with a wedding in the purest D&D style. This is just the trailer, and there is so much more to show, but I wanted to share this piece for those of you who wanted a little insight into the ceremony.”
Here you see the presentation of the role-playing game “Daggerheart” by the well-known group Critical Role, among whose players are also two married couples:
“It is, was, and will always be the happiest day of my life!”
How did the couple incorporate the game into their wedding? In addition to the thematically styled outfits of the couple, all guests were also dressed accordingly: Fairy wings, horns, elf ears, but also armor and face paint were no strange sight at this wedding.
The wedding took place in a castle and was conducted by a horned person, as the trailer of the wedding video shows:
How does the community react? Under the wedding post, various comments from the player community full of congratulations and small jokes are gathering.
- “I think you won D&D. Nothing can top that,” congratulates S0k0n0mi (via Reddit).
- “I’m currently considering getting divorced just to have a wedding like that,” admits MoonAmunet (via Reddit).
- “Congratulations on your wedding and finding a great wife who shares your hobbies. I wish you all the best for this new campaign called ‘Married Life’,” writes Unfair-Mongoose710 (via Reddit).
- “If anyone has any objections… roll for initiative,” writes Scholarly_Koala (via Reddit).
- “And the fact that you are called D&D is the icing on the cake,” thinks cjy7877 (via Reddit). A truly perfect coincidence, as the first names of the couple, David and Devika, together result in exactly the same abbreviations as the game they love so much.
It can certainly happen that two players at the table not only get closer in the game but also develop an interest in each other outside of the game. A DM (Dungeon Master) reported to the community that he developed a little crush on another DM hard, leading to a mysterious back and forth: Dungeon Master from Dungeons & Dragons asks his crush for a date with a riddle, gets one back and can’t solve it
