You know the old saying "If you can't find someone to marry you, marry yourself." Oh you didn't know that one? Hell me either. That's a new one to me. LOL So this lady here decided if she wasn't married by the age of 40 she'd marry herself. What in the psychotic hell? Now I'm all for self love but this just takes the cake.
Madame Noir Reports:
With her 40th birthday approaching and no potential husband in sight, Yasmin Eleby chose to gift herself with the elaborate wedding she’d always dreamed of. However, instead of vowing to love, forgive and honor a significant other, the Houston resident made the lifelong promises to herself.Hmmm now that's deep. Congrats to the happy....hmm can't say couple so what do you even say? LOL
The ceremony was held at the Houston Museum of African American Culture on Saturday, January 3 and included 10 bridesmaids and three ministers, who assisted with the spiritual ceremony. She was walked down the aisle and given away (or as Black Art in America put it, given back to herself) by her mother. Entertainment for the evening included live music provided by guitarist Ben Black, poet Deidra Smith and singer Rennette E. Lucien. The ceremony was coordinated by event planner Darrell Colone.
“I really don’t have the words to adequately describe the plethora of emotions that I’ve felt over the past few weeks, particularly on Saturday, January 3rd,” the bride gushed on Facebook. “I was overwhelmed with the outpouring of love and support that was shown to me during my celebration of love and life. Shana, Sandra, James, Deidra, Rennette, Brandy, Ben, and Darrell: every word that was said and sung was absolutely perfect for the occasion.
Anyway What do you think ladies? Self love or Cray Cray?
