Us - Virtually

Posted Wednesday, July 16, 2008 10:14 AM

Bride was tinkering around on a 'design your wedding' site, one that offered a Virtual  Ceremony Creator Kit. It allows you to create virtual wedding parties to see if your colors work out, to simulate the wedding party to see how the people look all grouped together and to give the Bride to Be a sense of what her ceremony will look like.  The site allows you to pick hair style, color, skin tone, bone structure, etc. to make your wedding party look like your own.

When my sweetie started laughing hysterically, I just had to see what she had wrought online.

Ye gods, I thought, I have never seen anything more ridiculous.

Think early 90's computer generated 3D people. Think cheesy bad computer animation. Everyone, including the mothers, had a vaguely Japanamation look about them. The whole thing had such a pasty plastic look to it.

And I told my sweetie we had to post it in the blog.

- Groom

 (Yes that's me, the bald groom.  Yes we tried to make the attendants and mothers look as close to their real counterparts as possible.  And no, none of us actually look like this.)
