A year ago, Desirai Labrada and John Henry got married in a Master Chief themed wedding. So how are they doing, one year later? Go to the source to find out.
A year ago, I attended a Halo wedding. It was in Orlando. The bride entered to a live rendition of the Halo 3 menu music. A man dressed as Master Chief married bride and groom. Here's what happened next.
A year past their wedding, Desirai Labrada and John Henry have become an inspiration to the surprising number of other couples who have met playing Halo. They have had their experience playing their favorite game online changed in ways they didn't expect. And they managed to squeeze into their honeymoon a visit to the house that built Halo, Bungie Studios.
"I never get tired of telling the story," Desirai Labrada told me as I spoke to her and her husband John Henry by phone yesterday to see how the couple was doing. "The story" is how Labrada and Henry fell in love playing Halo 2 over Xbox Live and were married on January 17, 2009 in a ceremony that was so Halo that every guest received a purple wedding candle in the shape of, you know, a Halo plasma grenade.
