Cosplay Wedding

I jus watched some clips on the 24th June Red White Songs Battle Hits (Anime) Singapore at NUS and the 9th July Cosfest V - The Reunion at Downtown East on Stomp's site. Quite a no. of things to see if u r bored. I thot it was rather cute seeing Jolin in her cutsy outfits although shes supposed to be sexy. Lol.

Quite interesting ne.

Some gals actually sounded quite gd i thot for e anime hits battle... Kinda cute.

For e Cosfest, its also rather interesting. E interviews and the cosplayers and costumers were quite a treat to look at, although e screen is small. And i saw e familiar faces which i saw from e pics off Wingede blog. Same event right?

They kept interviewing Sesshomaru (Inuyasha), i see liao buay tahan... Hes my fav character but then tt guy!!! -_-" His fur!!! -_-" His make up!!! -_-"

And then e one who did one of e Bleach's female vice captain shinigami, i forgot tt character's name. E one wif gi-normous boobs, almost spilling out every scene. Her boobs!!! Oh my gawd!!!

But for some reasons, i actually find guys cross dressing as female characters fine. Lol. I think its still the overall look.

One gal who cosplayed a character from Gundam Seed Destiny (i dun like tis anime, i even rejected when ppl wan to lend me e dvd, even Gackt sexy influence doesnt work tis time. Lol), she said she wans to hold a Cosplay Wedding in her future. And her gd fren was supporting her grds tis n tt.

At 1st thot, i thot its fresh and interesting... I think its gonna be quite cool, and it adds alot of colors n fun to e otherwise formal n boring weddings. At least, i doubt anyone would cry at the event. But maybe ur parents n older relatives would cry abit seeing all ur guests becum cosplayers? Lol. I am so evil.

But on second thot, ur whole wedding's gonna be a joke if ur guests actually did tt. For one, i doubt any hotels would put up wif such a rukus. For two, i doubt any wedding planners will take tt up coz of impracticality and e enormous problems tt would arise (unless u pay them huge of coz). For three, i doubt any guest will turn up.

If i attend ur wedding, i am already obliged to give u a 3 figure ang bao, and on top of tt, i even need to put in a few hundred bucks, and few mths of time to do e costumes jus to attend ur wedding. I wouldnt even do tt for "best frenz". No pun intended. Doing cosplay for cosplay events is different, coz simply its an EVENT in e 1st place.

Wats e pt if some turn up in normal clothes and some turn up in costumes? It would dampen e whole mood. Imagine i am e only one who cosplayed in a table wif ur other 9 normal guests. Maybe they would be annoyed wif my ribbons dropping on e food or my sword poking at the one next to me. Lol.

If u wan to do it, its better to make sure tt e majority do it instead. The main prob tt ppl worries over wedding dinner is e attendance. Unless u r a celebrity, chances r its not full attendance. Ive not even heard of anyone's wedding being full thus far. So i bet throwing tis worry aside, u still haf to convince all ur guests to cosplay.

Wait wait, i am not targetting e gal who came up wif tis idea. But i am targetting at tt concept.

U also better come up wif a proper agenda on e events tts going to happen. If not, u would jus see a Sailormoon eating shark fins, gobble gobble, clap clap, drink drink then BYE BYE, all rush home for e last train/bus. I cant even begin to imagine.

Granted, u can do a outdoor event like at Fort Canning hill, etc... Do a buffet instead of dinner. So tt at least theres more space for falling boxes, ribbons, wigs, swords. And e cosplayers can congregate and leave e normal guests as normal guests at e other side of e field.

Haha, youngsters will always be youngsters. Very opinionated, very idealistic (to their own perceptions, can means can attitude). Although she is e same age as me, lol *dig a hole n hide inside* But then having said all tt. I still think its quite cool. It will be a pretty gd "show" for e rest of e guests. Not only tt, its e 1st in sg, u can even call e press for interviews n shoots.

I myself did mentioned be4 tt it would be nice if my wedding is LOTR themed (ok, dun laugh). But i never expect my guests to do anything. I certainly dun expect anyone carrying fake swords, or elvish ears or coming to the hotel bare foot. Lol. But my door gift is e ONE RING TO RULE THEM ALL RING lor. Cool eh? Haha.

But one thing i must grumble though. How come ALL the cosplayers (those interviewed) all spoke in broken/bad/beng-lian-ish singlish one? Very bad for public viewing u noe. Wait e government/parents or whoever say those who like anime/cosplays all cannot speak properly then ban it like e old PCK scripts how?

Imagine they say, "Ive been watching the broadcast of the cosplay events and i realised all of them couldnt speak proper english. Anime must be bad influence for e young generation, so we must ban them all! Stop your kids from watching animes." Blah blah...Then how? Dun lidat leh...

Ppl already say we bloggers dun write in proper english, shortform no GD, singlish no good, say we tok nonsense, irresponsible, tis n tt liao, if cannot watch anime liao how? Im not toking about *er hem* those down *cough* loaded ones. If legally cannot watch liao how?

hurhurhur?

Hmm...actually theres a way, make a wedding on malay wedding budget lol...

Nowadays all buffet, around $10-$15 per head max, and don't expect people to give u money.

And at void deck/cc, so nobody really cares...lol....

But interesting no? cosplay wedding. but doubt it will work..like you said, it's an event, not something easy to incorporate into something else, unless all those you invites are hardcore cosplayers...:D
