DON'T MISS STORIES. FOLLOW EATER × No word on whether or not free samples were served.
Here's a story to warm your bulk toilet paper-loving heart: A couple got hitched inside their local Costco. According to local news station KEYT, Robert and Meredith Bonilla of Santa Maria, California "first laid eyes on each other" in the frozen food aisle of the membership-only warehouse club about a year ago, and that's precisely where they were wed last week surrounded by friends, family, and giant bags of those frozen mini quiches.
The couple said their vows at an altar constructed from wooden pallets after the bride "walked down an aisle lined with poinsettias" (priced the lowest of any in town, no doubt). Following the ceremony they kicked back in a double recliner chair from the furniture department, making the Bonillas almost as awesome as the Arizona couple that recently celebrated their 64th anniversary with nachos at Taco Bell.

Hope the bride isn’t frigid.
Some might wonder if he got free samples during their courtship.
Free samples at the end of each aisle.
My goblet of value priced boxed red wine is raised to this couple wishing them many years of marital bliss.
Was COSTCO they giving samples?
Costco has a very generous SATISFACTION GUARANTEED OR YOUR MONEY BACK policy....(whether the merchandise performs as promised, or not.....)
perhaps Costco is an excellent place to get married?
This is just one example of the cult of casualness that has crept into society every bit as destructively as political correctness. From inappropriate dress to uncouth jokes in the pulpit (I’ve even heard casual joking in a baptismal pool), the coarseness of this is stomach turning.
The vast number of people used to be married in a dignified manner in a church.
he should marry her by the hot chickens, not the frozen fish
He had to buy her 12 rings coz you can only buy them by the box in Costco.
Agreed
12 rings all the same and the most popular style too because, that is all they carry. LOL
Not my idea of a tasteful venue, but at least they didn’t have to worry about Barack Obama driving them off the site.
“Hope the bride isn’t frigid.”
Bah ha! LOL!
I’d give em a five gallon bucket of Soy sauce for a gift.
