Man Marries Dead Girlfriend In Joint Funeral And Wedding Ceremony
20 replies, posted
[quote=AOL News]A man recently married his deceased girlfriend in a combination funeral and wedding ceremony.
Chadil Deffy, also known as Deff Yingyuen, placed a ring on the finger of Sarinya "Anne" Kamsook, his girlfriend of 10 years, during the ceremony in Thailand's Surin province.
The couple had planned to get married in the future, but Yingyuen wanted to focus on his studies before tying the knot, the Thai-Asean News (TAN) Network reported.
Unfortunately, Kamsook unexpectedly died in an accident before the couple could set a date.
According to the Pattaya Daily News, the couple met at Thailand's Eastern Asia University nearly a decade ago, and wreaths were placed around campus in memory of Kamsook following her death.
Photos and footage of the ceremony were posted on Facebook and YouTube.
And while some thought the service a bit strange, others expressed their sympathy for the groom.
"...I didn't know her, but in your photos, she looks young and full of life. I can't image the impact her death has caused in the lives of her loved ones. It was a very moving gesture of love, very moving. It makes you rethink a lot of things in life, things you take for granted," Facebook user Alejandra Yanez wrote in spanish on Yingyuen's page.
Onsiri Pravattiyagul, a friend of the groom, wrote an opinion column addressing Yingyuen's intentions and the media speculation his story has prompted. The piece, featured on the Bangkok Times, included the following:
"Chadil wrote matter-of-factly online -- and would later give interviews in the same vein -- explaining that the motivation for this display was guilt, pure and simple: He felt he hadn't done enough for his girlfriend of 10 years while she was alive. Before her sudden death in a road accident, she had suggested that he marry her. But he had demurred, putting the idea on hold.
The "wedding" was his attempt to right a wrong, however belated the gesture might have been."[/quote]

That's so sad :(.
Damn.
Whoa, that mustache.
Now I know why so many husbands think their wives are dead lays.

AND THEN THEY PORKED

Name fits.
As tragic as this is, that's a pretty silly thing to do.
You may kiss the bride
Sad, obviously its a gesture of love, and commemoration not a literal wedding.
Fuck, I'd do the same if the real love of my life died before we could wed
Nothing is better than necrophilia on a honeymoon.
Honestly If i were in his position, I'd do the same.

The phrase is "Till death do us part"
But i realise that you are from lithuania and english is probably not your first language, so i forgive you.
The attire he wore to the reception plus the 'stashe makes him look badass.
He did the right thing in my opinion, he bound his love to his best friend. He's probably going to be widowed forever now. Poor him.
It's really beautiful in a sense... all the people making a big deal in the comments on the source website are pretty ignorant to what love will drive some people to do.
I wish the best for the guy.
He did this because he felt bad he had never married her, how bittersweet.
It says she died in a car accident yet in the pics her body looks fine, must have been whiplash or internal organ damage.

The folks who prepare bodies can do pretty extensive reconstruction. Modeling clay and makeup specially made for corpses can do a lot to piece someone back together.
