Two heterosexual men have tied the knot on Friday morning under New Zealand's liberal marriage laws.
Marrying not for love, but for Rugby World Cup Tickets, the two men from Dunedin in the South Island of New Zealand officially said 'I do' in front of 60 family and friends.
The ceremony was live broadcast by Edge Radio, who's 'I Love You, Man' competition was launched earlier this year in a bid to find two straight men willing to wed for the sought after tickets.
'It's official folks, Travis and Matt have just said 'I do'! Congrats to the happy couple!,' the station tweeted.
Travis McIntosh, 23, and Matt McCormick, 24, won the 'bromantic' radio contest in August and are over the moon- not for a life together, but for the opportunity to head to the Rugby World Cup in England next year.
While some gay rights groups in New Zealand have voiced objections to the nuptials, the pair are content with their reasons for the wedding.

So gays don’t like their “weddings” mocked? How about that!
“It’s not fair! Those were supposed to be OUR seats!”
I’m sorry, but I find this hilarious!
That’s funny.
OUTSTANDING! Hetero men can marry and go back to their wives and children as “cheaters” in the marriage and live happily ever after. Bromance BUMP!
Everybody have fun tonight. Everybody wang chung tonight.
Hell hath no fury like homos mocked.
The whirling handbags, the snarling, the scratching..
If there is one thing the homos and left can’t stand, it’s intolerance.
Hey they’re mocking marriage....isn’t that the latest trend?
What this shows is that marriage has become a complete joke of an institution. That’s sad. Give it 10 or 20 years and they’ll be marrying two horses or two dogs as a publicity stunt.
Hey, if the state wants to treat its version of marriage like a mutable contract that can be broken and resumed between any parties the state allows, it’s going to be treated like the joke that it is.

They still aren't married, though.
If you can’t beat them, ridicule them!
This would be equivalent to Super Bowl tickets. I like football, but I don’t know if I’d go THAT far! LOL!..............it IS funny, though.................
Too late!...............
As a response to the threat of same sex marriages being mocked by heterosexuals of the same gender tying the knot, Massachusetts is in the process of drafting legislation that would require married couples to perform sexual acts in front of State officials in order to secure a marriage license.
California and New York will soon to follow followed by a long diatribe by Justice Kennedy writing for the slim majority of the Supreme Court on why the sexual acts should be streamed for mass consumption. Something about the Takings Clause, Commerce Clause, and that he he just an old pervert.
What happens when they want to get divorced?
