25-year-old Jennifer Cannon from Lexington, Kentucky, and
Doy Nichols married in a public restroom in Times Square on Dec. 19. If you
think the location was unusual, the wedding gown was even stranger: the caps
sleeves dress, with a sweetheart neckline and a bow in the back were part of
designer Hanah Kim’s dress, who was the winner of the 2007 Toilet Paper Wedding
Dress competition.
The ceremony was held in a luxurious restroom in Times
Square, named “The Charmin Restrooms”, and everything was payed for, from the
ceremony and honeymoon package to the airplane tickets and hotel room, by the
Cincinnati-based P&G.
The designer used for the unusual dress Charmin Ultra Soft
and Charmin Ultra Long. The couple, for the first time in New York, was very
excited about the idea. The groom, Doy Nicholas, said that he searched the
internet to see how the dress looked like, and he thought it was beautiful.
Unlike his bride, the groom wore a more traditional vest and
tie, not wanting to draw too much attention from his bride-to-be.
At the end of the ceremony, the officiant asked Doy to kiss
the bride, but said, according to Reuters: “please don’t squeeze the Charmin
dress.”
No matter how emotional the wedding would have turned out to
be, finding a tissue couldn’t have been a problem.
