BRIDGEND, Wales, A pair of Welsh fans of the film series "Shrek" dressed as the titular ogre and his bride, Princess Fiona, for their "Shrek"-themed wedding.

Viv and Tracey Williams of Bridgend said friends often told them they resembled the cartoon ogres so they decided to dress their wedding party as characters from the films, The Sun reported Monday.

"Everyone said I made a lovely Princess Fiona and Viv was the perfect Shrek," Tracey Williams, 33, said. "The best man was dressed as Monsieur Hood, my dad was Lord Farquaad, my mother was the Fairy Godmother and the maid of honor was Snow White."

Viv Williams, 53, said he and his bride are big fans of the film series.

"We watched the films, became addicted and when we decided to get married we both knew how we wanted the wedding to be," she said. "I wouldn't mind betting we have started a trend -- the whole family absolutely loved it. It looked amazing."

To each his own I guess. At least they are pretty much projecting to the world that they are insane. No need to guess about that one.

My hubby and I were married in Vegas.
When looking for a chapel his only speculations were, No drive thru and No Elvis.

Now we can add Shrek.

I'd love to be a fly on the wall 15 years from now when they try and explain those wedding pictures to their kids.

BTW, has Dreamworks sued them for royalties yet?

Royalties for what, if anything they’re giving Dreamworks free advertising.

I hate to admit it, but the Waffle House wedding took place on the other side of my town.

Yes, they are off to a strange start in the matronly life.
I wonder if they are taking the idea of getting married as seriously ... ?

You should have crashed the party!

You could have dressed up too and no one would have questioned you.

Oh, I don’t know. It shows they’re a fun couple. Does it really matter how they’re dressed but that they consecrated their union. And I bet they had some good music to dance to.
