Hilarious: UK Woman Sets Record, Marries HERSELF (Must Read)

Grace Gelder, a photographer by profession, was so sick and tired of the dating scene and single life that she decided to become the first person in Britain to marry “Herself.”

Grace decided to commit to the most important person in her life, ‘proposed’ to herself last November on a park bench and staged a full wedding ceremony with 50 guests.

According to her, after being single for six years she had built up a brilliant relationship with herself and creating that bond with someone else seemed like too much hard work.

Inspired by the Björk song Isobel, which includes the line, ‘My name’s Isobel, married to myself’, the Londoner said the lyric struck a chord with her and it was then she decided to walk solo down the aisle.

Grace bought a dress, a ring, rehearsed vows and eventually wed in a farmhouse in rural Devon watched by her sister and friends sealing the deal by planting a kiss on a mirror.
