Ripped from Geekologie
<em>How Romantic</em>: Chinese Province Now Offering Avatar Themed Weddings - Geekologie



Because Avatar tattoo guy needs a place to renew his vows to his wife (who you better believe he'll make dress like Neytiri), the Hunan Provence (not to be confused with the Hunan Palace, which is right down the street and has an $11.95 all-you-can-eat buffet that can make a grown man **** for days) in China is now offering Avatar-themed weddings in the actual mountains that inspired the floating ones in the movie. Except apparently they spared every expense possible.

Quote:
Enter Xiao Tsao, a blushing bride-to-be who, as part of a multi-party wedding amongst the sandstone pillars, felt compelled to utilize the services of these exploitation kings. Sadly, the Avatar-themed wedding did not deliver, as they were unable to emulate the Na'vi created by Cameron. According to Tsao, the "Na'vi" were nothing more than forestry workers wearing long underwear dyed blue and masks: as a whole, very disappointing.
Disappointing, huh? *calling Expedia to cancel flight to China* Call your ecstasy dealer and break out the glow-necklaces, honey -- looks like it's a TRON-themed wedding after all!

Thanks to Melissa, who agrees the only appropriate theme for a wedding is love. Or Transformers.

There is only one word in the English language capable of describing what happened here.

Fail.

Ugh. That's some really poor taste of a wedding. I feel ashamed.

Well, each to their own.

Personally, I would never attend to such a wedding though.

Looks a bit like they got their idea of Na'vi outfits from Hometree Wisconsin's YouTube videos...

Wiggling bare toes,

A normal wedding (read: minus the forestry workers) at the sandstone mountains would be pretty cool...
